Trouble calling a DLL

[milfredo]

I am writing a program using Liberty Basic and thought I'd see how things might be using LBB.

Here is a snippet of code....

Open "IsFile32.dll" For DLL As #ff
CallDLL #ff, "IsFile",temp$ As ptr, result As long
close #ff

I get an error code when I try and run the program, saying that the DLL is not available. I put the IsFile32.dll in the same folder as the LBB application. So not sure what the problem happens to be.

Any help would be appreciated.

You can explicitly put the path and file of DLL and test. May be this can help.

Sample:

Open "C:\BBCBASIC\LIB\IsFile32.dll" FOR DLL AS #FF

Also you can test with BBC BASIC code in LBBOOSTER:

Code: Select all

!SYS "LoadLibrary", "IsFile32.dll" TO MyDll%
!PRINT MyDll%
!ff=MyDll%

ff now have the MyDll% value in LBB

If MyDll% return a number more great than 0 then DLL is load
