Exporting a function pointer from dll

Question

I have a function pointer in a dll file (in implementation, not header). How can I call the function pointed to by this pointer in the exe source code?

Answer 1

you can export a function returning the pointer. Header:

typedef void ( *MyPtr ) ();

__declspec( dllexport ) MyPtr GetMyPtr();

Source:

MyPtr GetMyPtr()
{
  //retunr the function pointer here
}
