Multi-DLL server applications

[Rob Kolanko]

I am developing an new server application that will have several pages and processes that are the same as another server application. The customer may or may not own both applications. I would like to keep these procedures in a separate DLL to be shared by two or more applications. Will this work if the applications are also installed into multi-site hosts environment? Also I tried to run the multi-dll example #20 and I immediately receive and error message:  "The procedure entry point _7control_doclip@FR8ClipInfoUI could not be found in the dynamic link library ClaRUN.dll."
I compiled the example program with C8 and NT7.05.

Thanks,
Rob

yes, I see no problem with this.

you need to compile the site1 app before the host app. But I don't think that's the problem here. It looks like there's an out-of-sync dll in the folder - so maybe blow all the DLL's away and let C8 copy them in again for you.

cheers
