Title: Dynamic DLL's in seperate folder
Post by: kidchameleon on May 05, 2016, 12:22:49 am

Hi all,

I'm just curious. Would it be possible to compile dynamically but have the DLL files in a separate folder for distribution?

Cheers

Yes, there are actually multiple ways to achieve it, see the MSDN article on DLL search order (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms682586(v=vs.85).aspx#search_order_for_desktop_applications).

I think one of the easier solution would be to set the working directory to the directory where the DLLs are in.
