DLL

Hi I need to write an DLL to export functions to be used in an Visual Basic application. Can I do it in Rebol ? If I can, Rebol can access ODBC drivers ? Tks.

Hi Marcelo, you can, using rebol/view/pro or rebol/command but they are not free. :-( -MAx --- You can either be part of the problem or part of the solution, but in the end, being part of the problem is much more fun.

You cannot write DLLs in REBOL, it is an interpreter, not a compiler. You can however access DLLs. The Command SDK has ODBC built-in. --Maarten

oh my god, I hadn't understood the mail that way.. oops sorry Marcelo, Maarten is completely right, we can only READ libraries... not create them... -MAx --- You can either be part of the problem or part of the solution, but in the end, being part of the problem is much more fun.

Hi Marcelo I have never used it but as far as I know Rebol/Command deals with ODBC drivers pretty well. Carlos Em Qui 16 Out 2003 11:39, Marcelo Fontes Castellani escreveu:

Hi Marcelo, MFC> I need to write an DLL to export functions to be used in an Visual Basic MFC> application. Can I do it in Rebol ? No. You can create EXEs with the SDK, but you can't export REBOL functions from them. The best you can do is use some other form of IPC (e.g. a TCP socket) to get the job done. -- Gregg
