- Documentation on writing DLLs is pretty easily come by at the bookstore.
- I think most Visual C++ tutorial books should have a chapter or so on that.

- As for the .def and .mak files, if version 4.0 is anything like earlier
- versions, just go ahead and create a new project. When you have a chance
- to change the Application type, make it a DLL, and then add all the code
- files you need in your project. The framework takes care of creating a
- .mak file for you. As for the .def file, if you don't add one to your
- project, it should ask if you would like one automatically generated on
- the first compile. Do so, and then tweak it to your needs.
-
- Hope that wasn't just a pile of twaddle.
