[Request Help] C++ executable for debug session .dll

[ryski123]

Everytime i try and debug a code the output comes up with building and everything, and then i click Yes to this pop-up.
And then another pop-up comes and is called Executable for Debug session, and this pop-up says: Please specify the name of the executable file to be used for the debug session.
Then i have to chose some Executable File Name, comes with a dropdown menu that contains regsvr32.
Then under that another thing says: URL where the project can be accessed (ATL servers only).

I go to Project - Properties - Debugging

and the command line is empty
and the command arguments also,

Please help me, Tell me what i should enter in there

Regards

Ryski

What are you trying to debug? Dll hack or?
Specify pl0x

Because a DLL can't execute alone, it needs an executable to run in.

If you're making a DLL that is to be injected, just inject it into whatever you need to. If not, load it using LoadLibrary and import whatever you're exporting from it?

import whatever you're exporting from it? \:

/insert facepalm here

/insert facepalm here

From the executable, import whatever functions you are exporting from the DLL.

You gotta admit that your last two posts on the thread have be

Them darn Koreans always trying to take over... *Cough*
Anyway, if it means anything I think like 99% of my posts are in the c++ section. I only posted once or twice outside of it.

Anyway, a dll (in stupid terms) is like a file that just holds all the commands to do. It doesn't have anything to execute as a windows application, rather, it can be used by windows applications. So when you compile the dll, it makes a file then from there you would inject that file into a process (your game) or something and then your code in the dll would execute.

(Tried to make it as simple as I could)

Miracles happening everywhere..

Go and double click any DLL on your computer, and see what it does.

Idk... Koreans been trolling a long time. So many accs I can't keep up. Kinda funny that he would be the one to tell you the sdfu though...

Point is a DLL = Dynamic Linked Library.
All they are are libraries. Sorta like the "static" libraries you use all the time for function like cout and cin. If you didn't code it chances are the library code is being "linked" into your program. The only difference is DLL's load or "link" at runtime (hence their name). An executable can load a DLL quite simply, by using the LoadLibrary() API. Upon loading the DLL will have a chance to execute its main method, but plenty of DLL's don't run any code, but simply do nothing and export code when needed.

[DoubleDutch]

Do you have the latest .net framework?
