making a global variable accessible in a DLL function

[xargon]

Hello,

I have a question about how to make an application global variable be accessible from a DLL.

The problem is that some of the classes that this DLL uses need access to a logging object that is a global object instantiated by the application. Whenever the call from the DLL accesses this object, I get a crash.

I was wondering if there is a way to access this global object from a function called by the DLL?

Thanks,

Luca

You should post this in the Windows section as it's OS specific.

In answer to the question, you need to export the data as you would a function.

do a __declspec(dllimport) instead of __declspec(dllexport)
i think it will work.

you do an export from dll when you access something in the dll from a .exe. similarly to access something in dll from .exe you need to import that way.
