DLL is not properly constructed.

The first suggestion that comes to mind is to make

sure that you're exporting all of the symbols (functions)

that you are going to use in the DLL (especially the GetScope

function, which Forte is complaining about not being able

to find).

Subject: DLL is not properly constructed.

Hi Friends,

I am trying to wrap up a C DLL and write a client which uses the

dll. I have written the C code and compiled it as a DLL. At run time,

the client raises the following exceptions.

SYSTEM ERROR: Exception raised in user application.

I dont undrestand why my DLL is not "properly constructed". I

am using a MSVC++ compiler, command line tools and Forte 3.0.E.0 on a

Win95 machine.

Please help!!
