using a dll

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Userlibs/using a dll

I know that this is probably a very common question, but could you explain in very simple terms how to set up a dll and start using it?

This would help me a lot!

Hi friend. There is a web explaining all the basics in the Specs and Utils section of blitzbasic.com

http://www.blitzbasic.com/sdkspecs/sdkspecs.php

If after reading this you keep having troubles, please ask here again!

Good Luck!

Ok! Thanks!
I think that I am starting to get it now!
The problem that I was having was that I misread my installation package and thought that it said version 1.94 when it realy said version 1.64. So, there was no userlibs folder in my blitz3d folder and some other things that just didn't seem right.
Anyway, I ran the latest update and everything seems to be working out ok!

Thanks for the help!

To use Tokamak, do I need a .decls file?
If so, where can I get it?

Never mind, I found it on the tokamak wrapper site.

You might want to downgrade from 1.94- back to 1.91- There have been a few problems poking up with 1.94 that as a new programmer to blitz, you might have problems with.
