Call_External on WIn95 [message #8950] Tue, 20 May 1997 00:00

I am trying to call a DLL using Call_External under Win95, and I am running
into difficulties. I am using IDL 4.0, Visual C++ v5, and the test DLL found in
RSI\IDL40\external\sharelib named DllTst.
I am compiling the DLL and getting this message:

Linking...
Creating library Debug/DllTst.lib and object Debug/DllTst.exp
DllTst.exp : warning LNK4070: /OUT:dlltst32.dll directive in .EXP differs from
output filename "Debug/DllTst.dll"; ignoring directive

which I assume can be safely ignored. I then Call_External in IDL only to get
this message:

IDL> dlltst32
This program tests CALL_EXTERNAL using DLLTST32.DLL
% CALL_EXTERNAL: Error loading DLL dlltst32.dll, LoadLibrary() error 6549692.

% DLLTST32 9
c:\rsi\idl40\external\examples\sharelib\dlltst32.pro
% $MAIN$

Does anyone know what is causing this error? (Note: I am letting the VC++
enviroment take care of the .MAK file info, is this the problem?)
Any help would be appreciated.
