I am migrating to Windows 7, moving into Slickedit 17 64 bit and have an old Slickedit extension DLL that is 32 bit that I need to recreate as 64 bit. This DLL is basically a bunch of wrappers for WinAPI calls.
Slickedit comes with an example 32 bit 'simple.dll' project (ahem) that is only a makefile. I need to know how to set up a Visual Studio project to build a 64 bit DLL using Slickedits libs.
The provided makefile is as follows:
# This makefile supports the following Visual C++ versions:
# 7.10 (Visual Studio 2003), 8.00 (Visual Studio 2005),
# and 9.00 (Visual Studio 2008)
#
# Nmake macros for building Windows 32-Bit apps
!include <Win32.mak>
# Set linkdebug to nothing to link DLL without debug
#linkdebug=
DLLNAME=simple
cflags=$(cflags) -D_WINDOWS -I..\..\h
all: $(DLLNAME).lib $(DLLNAME).dll
# Update the object files if necessary
$(DLLNAME).obj: $(DLLNAME).cpp
$(cc) $(cflags) $(cvarsmt) $(cdebug) -Tp $*.cpp
# Update the import library
$(DLLNAME).lib: $(DLLNAME).obj $(DLLNAME).def
$(implib) -machine:$(CPU) \
-def:$(DLLNAME).def $*.obj -out:$*.lib
# Update the dynamic link library
LIBDIR=lib
$(DLLNAME).dll: $(DLLNAME).obj $(DLLNAME).def makefile
$(link) $(linkdebug) \
-NODEFAULTLIB:libc -base:0x1C000000 \
-dll -entry:_DllMainCRTStartup$(DLLENTRY) \
-out:$*.dll \
$*.exp $*.obj ..\..\$(LIBDIR)\dllmain.obj ..\..\$(LIBDIR)\vsapi.lib ..\..\$(LIBDIR)\secommon.lib $(conlibsmt)
clean :
del $(DLLNAME).dll $(DLLNAME).obj $(DLLNAME).pdb $(DLLNAME).ilk
Makefiles aren't my thing, and this one is set for 32 bit anyhow. So how do I setup a Studio Project to handle this type of C++ build. I've got:
- C:\se17\lib\dllmain.obj
- C:\se17\lib\secommon.lib
- C:\se17\lib\tagsdb.lib
- C:\se17\lib\vsapi.lib
And a supplied header directory in C:\se17\h
I am asking on SO because I am pretty skeptical about getting a decent response on community.slickedit.com, god love them anyway
