Function Reference

DllOpen

Opens a dll file for use in DllCall.

DllOpen ( "filename" )

Parameters

filename

Filename of the dll file to open.

Return Value

Success:	Returns a dll "handle" or use with subsequent dll functions.
Failure:	Returns -1 if error occurs.

Remarks

Up to 64 files can be open simultaneously by one AutoIt script.
When finished working with a dll, call the DllClose function to close it. Autoit normally closes all files upon termination, but explicitly calling DllClose is still a good idea.
