I use a DLL. If i call a function, it write sometimes text to STDOUT this is the same effect, if you use print but how can i get this text from STDOUT??? (or transfer this text to a textarea?) any ideas?

You can't STDIN is to get stuff into your application so you would need to map the STDOUT of the DLL to BMs STDIN to get the things it gives out ... or make the DLL an exe and use FreeProcess and Pipe.

Use freopen? Or find some other way to redirect it.
