Hi, is it possible to make a dll thingie out of a code written in dgdk and add it as a plugin to DBP?

For example something like this:



Then save as a dll and add into user-plugin.
Then add keyword "make object teapot"

Well, something like that.
I hopy you get what i mean.

I dont use D GDK but i want to know if it is possible.

I can almost guarantee a conflict in that scenario.
You can just call DBPro functions from your normal plug-in after setting up the linkage to the functions.

Refer to Zotoaster's post for the how to....

Yes, but that was not what i asked for.
I want to use DBP commands inside GDK and make it a plugin for new commands.
Possible?

No offense to either you or Zotoaster, but those are not terribly good ideas in the first place. I also don't see how either way would work...at all.

In Z's case, you can't just load up a DLL and start calling functions without knowing the function prototype. That is why I typedef them. You can call a DLL's function by ordinal value, but there is ALOT wrong with that, not the least of which is the fact that the vendor is free to change the order they are exported, which would wreck the code completely.

In your case, you are asking to use what is essentially DBPro already, and hammer in a function to DBPro, while at the same time doubling your resource requirements before you've done anything at all. Why would you not already use DBPro for that? I use DBPro from my plug-ins alot. It works great. My prototypes even look like GDK already, they just have a very late binding.

If I am talking out of school, please enlighten me as to how its better to go the long way around the fence, and also...how would you even accomplish that? I'm honestly stumped at why this way is not the answer for both of you?

Well, i am not really into DGDK and DLL's but i just wanted to know, thanks
