Re: How to print out from DLL


Hi Igor,
Thank you for your answer. But I stil have a questions.
If I change the printf function in the DLL to the fprintf and print to the
file, then this programm works fine. If I change the file descriptor to the
stderr then I have again this problem - no printings. It looks like no
problem with msvcrt.dll but the problem with console output. When I compile
the application in the Cygwin I also use "-mno-cygwin" flag(I found it
later), but it does not help.
Ok I will try to compile my stuff under Cygwin with this flag, but I`m not
shure that it help me. Last time when I did it(without "-mno-cygwin flag) I
had big problem with select() function, whith works sometimes not correct in
multithreading application(may be in the single threading application too).

Best regards,
Mishel
