  • I need a dll

    From T@21:1/5 to All on Thu Nov 24 18:50:22 2022
    Hi All,

    I realize I am asking for someone to do
    my homework for me here, but please suffer me.

    I program in Raku. I can barely guess at C++.
    Raku have failed me here (there own admission).

    Would someone please show me how to write
    the following C++ DLL?

    I can provide a pointer (*p) [in] and the length of
    the data (length) [in].

    Generically speaking, I would like back the
    array of bytes (CArray?) [out] that the pointer
    points to.

    Something like

    CArray ReturnCArray(
    [in] Pointer *p,
    [in] DWORD length
    )

    or

    ReturnCArray(
    [in] Pointer *p,
    [in] DWORD length,
    [out] CArray ArrayOfBytes
    )

    And I would also appreciate the gcc command to
    compile this. Will the compiler create a .h
    file at compile same time?

    Many thanks,
    -T

    I went to learn.Microsoft.com and used their search.
    Found it about a minute ago

    I should probably use

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/memcpy-s-wmemcpy-s?view=msvc-170

    instead.

    Any idea what DLL that is coming from?

    Yep. its CRTDLL.DLL.

    By the way, there are programs around that wll show you the list of
    functions in a DLL. one(?) is mentioned here :

    Could not find the program you were referring to.

    The name of it (on that webpage), or when you googled for it (to download
    it) ?

    The name is "dumpbin.exe".

    You can ofcourse also look for similar, perhaps not MS producs. :-) The
    one that came with my Assembler (Tasm32) is called TDump.exe.
