For some reasons I don't understand, I tried to import a dll today. I expected that the same thing as with .libs will happen ... but the compilation worked without any problems not like with .lib

does this mean we can just import them without problems or did I miss something?

were you able to use any of the functions contained in the dll?

Dreamora, can you explain that? You imported a .dll How? did it work?

Import "Blah.dll"

??

I now tried using functions.

does not work at least not straight ...
will try some other stuff, perhaps there is a more or less working way to do so ( want to include newton which has no source version )

I'm confused.. How is it that you're allowed to import a DLL? 0_o
