Dynamic Link Library
OBJECTIVE:
To create a dynamic library which is used to calculate the simple interest with principle, no of years, rate of interest as the given parameters.
PROCEDURE:
1. Create a Dynamic link library:
1. Run MFC App Wizard(dll) to generate C:\DLL
2. In the step1 of the Appwizard select regular DLL using shared MFC DLL and click finish.
3. Create a new class by right clicking on the DLL classes, class type->generic class, Name->CMyclass.
4. A constructor and destructor will be created for the new class CMyClass.
5. Declare a member function in the MyClass.h file.
public:
float interest (float p,float n,float r);
6. Type the definition for the above member function in MyClass.cpp
float CMyClass::interest(float p,float n,float r)
{
return(p*n*r/100);
}
7. In the MyClass.h file include declspec(dllexport)in front of the constructor,destructor and the interest function so that these functions can exported to the client program.
8. New compile the Dll application,during the time of compilation,dll file will be created in the debug folder of the application.
2. Create the Client program:
1. Run MFC AppWizard(exe)to generate C:\Client.
2. Select dialog based in step1 of the wizard.
3. Select all the default settings & finish the wizard.
4. In the dialog create 4 edit controls and 2 command buttons.(IDC_BUTTON1,IDC_BUTTON2).The first 3 edit controls are used to get the input P,N,R and the 4th edit control to view the result.IDC_BUTTON1 to calculate &IDC_BUTTON2 to quit the application.
5. Using class wizard set the member variables for the edit controls of float data type m_p,m_n,m_r,m_res.
6. Using class wizard map message WM_LBUTTONDOWN to the object IDC_BUTTON1 & IDC_BUTTON2 and a notification hanker OnButton1,OnButton2 will be generated.
7. In ClientDlg.h include the path of the header file of the Dll which has the member function interest which is exported to client.
#include "C:\Dll\MyClass.h"
public:
CMyClass objclass;
8. Include the following lines in clientDlg.cpp
void CClientDlg::OnButton1()
{
UpdateData(true);
m_res=objclass.interest(m_p,m_n,m_r);
UpdateData(false);
}
void CClientDlg::OnButton2()
{
PostQuitMessage(0);
}
9. Go to project->settings->linktab->object/library modules->C:\DLL\Debug\Dll.lib.
10. Now copy the dll file which has been created in the C:\DLL\Debug to the client program in the path C:\Client.
11. Compile the client applications & run the application
12. .Click on the calculate button to view the result in the last edit control.
