    Register DLL w/o regsvr32.exe

    Would this work?
    Code:
    int regDll(char *dllPath) 
    {
    	if (strlen(dllPath) == 0) return 1;
    	
    	/* get handle to dll */
         HINSTANCE hGetProcIDDLL = LoadLibrary(dllPath);
    
         /* get pointer to the function in the dll */
         FARPROC lpfnGetProcessID = GetProcAddress(HMODULE(hGetProcIDDLL), "DummyFunction");
    	
    	 /* release DLL */
         FreeLibrary(hGetProcIDDLL);
    
         return 0;
    }
    
    void DummyFunction (void) {};
    Edit: I just realized that I don't have the register routines in here yet.
