The /dll command can be used to call an exported function from DLL with the specified parameters.

Prototype

The exported function must have the following function prototype:

#include <windows.h>
int funcName(HWND mWnd, HWND aWnd, char *data, char *parms, BOOL show, BOOL nopause);

Note: These functions must use the stdcall calling convention. (This is also the standard calling convention for all other Microsoft Win32 API functions.)

Synopsis

/dll <libName.dll> <funcName> [data]
/dll -u <libName.dll>

Switches

• -u - Unload the given loaded library.

Parameters

• <libName.dll> - The name and path of the dynamic link library (DLL) file.
• <funcName> - The name of the exported function to call
• [data] - The data to pass to that function.

Example

/*
  gcc -c -O3 reverse.c
  gcc -shared --export-all-symbols -o reverse.dll -O3 reverse.o

  reverse.c:

  #include <windows.h>
  #include <string.h>
  
  int __attribute__((stdcall))
  reverse(HWND mWnd, HWND aWnd, char *data, char *parms, BOOL show, BOOL nopause)
  {
      char *l = *data ? data + strlen(data) - 1 : data;
      char *p = parms;
      while ((*p++ = *l--));
      strcpy(data, "/echo -s ");
      strcat(data+8, parms);
      return 2;
  }
