I have a dylib dynamic library with a .h file (see below).

#include <CoreFoundation/CoreFoundation.h>
typedef struct DriverHandler* OPNInterface;
extern "C" OPNInterface CreateOPNInterface();
...

How can I call the CreateOPNInterface() from BlitzMax ?

Import ?
Extern ?

Function dlerror$z()
Function dlopen:Byte Ptr (Path$z, Mode:Int)
Function dlsym:Byte Ptr (Handle:Byte Ptr, Symbol$z)

If (Not Library) Then
WriteStdout "Library could not be loaded~n"

End If

Local CreateOPNInterface: Byte Ptr()
CreateOPNInterface = dlsym(Library,"CreateOPNInterface")
If (Not CreateOPNInterface) Then
WriteStdout "unable to obtain symbol 'CreateOPNInterface'~n"
End If
Local OPN:Byte Ptr=CreateOPNInterface();
