As far as I am aware dll's (Dynamicly Linked Libraries) enable you to put code for functions that you call regularly into a library. The advantage being that if you need to change anything in that particular function you only need to recompile the dll and not the entire program Also if you use the same function in multiple applications you dont need to compile it into each app monolithically , hence code re-use and a graceful style http://vlaurie.com/computers2/Articles/dll.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic-link_library Compiled object files are not the same as dll's object code is linked together into a monolithic program at the linking stage of the build process I believe you have to be very specific if you want to compile a function into a dll > > and can you ref them into you compiled exe, In Lunix or windows? I've never heard of Linux referencing Windows dll's Why would you want to ? Linux has its own ways of referencing libraries http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LibraryArchives-StaticAndDynamic.html Steph -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
