Hello,

I am new to CT and Freepascal/Lazarus and a longtime delphi 7 user.

I am trying to get a sample from the neobook plugin SDK compiled undet CT.

I get various errors like DLLProc is unknown.

DLLProc := @DLLHandler;

I used the converter funtions in CT.
I added what I have so far incuding the converter backup delphi files.
Maybe a experienced CT-user can get it to run?

I outcomment the DLLProc line but get hard crashes when called from neobook host-app.


Regards

Hans-Peter

Sir
to register a DLL main function Delphi has
DLLProc and DLLProcEx

Now in CT and FreePascal
look at system.pp line 112
const
  Dll_Process_Detach_Hook : TDLL_Entry_Hook = nil;
  Dll_Thread_Attach_Hook : TDLL_Entry_Hook = nil;
  Dll_Thread_Detach_Hook : TDLL_Entry_Hook = nil;

Use these in your library, to register the main function.

Hello,

Thanks for the answer.
Since I have no access to the calling host (neobook authoring system)
I am out of luck then to use CT as a plugin toolkit.
Sad but here is freepascal not compatibel with delphi.
