Hi,

I have the task at the moment of modifing another persons code for some extension DLLs, one dll handles a thread which talks and keeps track of another system and reports problems. The other dll accesses databases and other tasks for which MFC needed to be used. At the moment all I have done is modify and add some functions to both of the dlls. I have an executable that I can use to test the DLLs.

Normally if I developed a DLL I would have used dllexport and dllimport method. The original developer of this software has used the ordinal method (DEF file) to export functions.

The problem I have at the moment is when I use ordinal method to export my added functions the dll that wants to use the exported functions wont build in debug mode it keeps reporting that my added functions are unresolved in the linking process.

When I use the normal method of dllexport and dllimport the executable (both debug and release) reports it can't find the entry point for any of the exported functions.

In the ordinal method I have inserted by function declarations in the DEF file.

What am I missing????!!!!
