DLL Methods

DLL.addFunction( refName, returnType, functionDefType, functionName [, parameters...] )

Usage

var d = new DLL( "c:/testdll/myTest.DLL");

function preMain() {

       d.addFunction("MyCallName", DLL.DOUBLE, DLL.CDECL, "Testing123", DLL.INT, DLL.STRING, DLL.FLOAT, DLL.DOUBLE, DLL.BYTE);

}

DLL.call( refname [, parameters] )

Usage

var d = new DLL( "c:/testdll/myTest.DLL" );

function preMain() {

       d.addFunction( "MyCallName", DLL.DOUBLE, DLL.CDECL, "Testing123", DLL.INT, DLL.STRING, DLL.FLOAT, DLL.DOUBLE, DLL.BYTE );

       //in the above example:

       //        "MyCallName" is the internal name we have assigned to the DLL function we are calling

       //        DLL.DOUBLE is the type of value it returns (e.g., a double-precision number)

       //        DLL.CDECL is the calling convention used by our DLL

       //        "Testing123" is the actual function name of the exported DLL function.

       //        DLL.INT signifies that the first input parameter is an integer

       //        DLL.STRING signifies that the second input parameter is a string

       //        DLL.FLOAT signifies that the third input parameter is a float

       //        DLL.DOUBLE signifies that the fourth input parameter is a double

       //        DLL.BYTE signifies that the fifth input parameter is a byte

}

function main() {

var retVal;

       retVal = d.call( "MyCallName", 123, "hello world", 456.23, 544.0014053, 255 );
