<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi, </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>
<DIV>I'm having a strange issue with the LoadLibrary call in the 64bit
beta version of the free pascal compiler (fpc 2.1.5 with lazarus 0.9.23
beta) - standard install from the sourceforge download and installed in
the default c:\lazarus directory.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have written a function in FPC that I have used in Delphi for
many many years with out problem. Ok, here's a simple piece of
code</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>function myfunction(a, var b : dword) : boolean;</DIV>
<DIV>var dllh : cardinal;</DIV>
<DIV> fun : function (a : dword; var b :
dword) : boolean; stdcall;</DIV>
<DIV>begin</DIV>
<DIV> result := false;</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> dllh :=
loadlibrary('c:\windows\system32\somelib.dll');</DIV>
<DIV> if dllh <> 0 then</DIV>
<DIV> begin</DIV>
<DIV> fun := nil;</DIV>
<DIV> fun :=
getprocaddress(dllh,'someproc');</DIV>
<DIV> if fun <> nil then result
:= fun(a,b);</DIV>
<DIV> end</DIV>
<DIV> else</DIV>
<DIV> result := false;</DIV>
<DIV>end;</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Now here's my problem - very simply if I compile this into a
standard console application it works fine, however, if I compile it
into the DLL I am planing to run it in it fails - the loadlibrary call
ALWAYS returns 0x7C370000 which appears to be a memory address rather
than a handle - the result is that the getprocaddress returns an invalid
address and fails.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So, why is the loadlibrary call failing (or returning this memory
address) when in a DLL but NOT when it's in a console app.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Any help would be great, as I cannot seem to find an implementation
of GETLASTERROR to pass to SYSERRORMESSAGE to display any error from the
OS if there is one !</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks folks</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
