I have a .dll and the information on the functions available. The information provides the prototype of the function in the dll.
As far as I can tell the dll was written in C.


I want to call on these functions from within a perl script.

More specifically the dll prints out bridge hands.

One function queues a list of hands.
Another function prints out the hands in specified formats. You can request one hand per page or x number of hands per page.


So basically, I need to learn how to interface with the dll...

I think that perhaps Win32::API might be the answer I am looking for.

So if anyone knows of document(s) which describe what I am trying to do, I would appreciate if someone would let me know.

Thank You

Hi,
Could you provide more information on your problem.
Perl provides pack and unpack functions for handling binary data
but it is difficult to provide pointers as is, IMO.

Sorry pushed the Send button too fast the first time.

alfred,

I have a dll and information describing its function calls.

I have tried to google but unfortunately I did not use the appropriate search words.

Thank You
