- mbmstarter.dll
- ****************************************************************
-
- This may ONLY be distributed and used by programs that are fully
- FREEWARE, you are NOT ALLOWED to use this DLL with shareware,
- payware or commercial programs.
-
- now that the legal part is out of the way, with this dll you can
- launch the mbm.dll without using mbm, of course you must have
- configured mbm correctly if you want this to work correctly.
- Once the mbm.dll is running you freeware program can access the
- sharedmemory like normal
-
-
- the delphi code to start the dll is like this:
-
- type
- TStartDLL = function : Integer; stdcall;
- TStopDLL = function : Integer; stdcall;
-
- var
- Form1: TForm1;
- CStartDLL : TStartDLL;
- CStopDLL : TStopDLL;
- DLLHandle : THandle;
-
- implementation
-
- {$R *.DFM}
-
- procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
- var
- X : Integer;
- begin
- if DLLHandle=0 then
- begin
- DLLHandle:=LoadLibrary(PChar(ExtractFilePath(ParamStr(0))+'MBMStarter.dll'));
- if DLLHandle <> 0 then
- begin
- @CStartDLL:=GetProcAddress(DLLHandle, 'Start');
- X:=CStartDLL;
- if X <> 1 then Showmessage('Error Starting MBM.DLL, Error : '+IntToStr(X))
- else Showmessage('MBM.DLL Started') ;
- end
- else Showmessage('Error Loading StarterDLL');
- end;
- end;
-
- procedure TForm1.Button2Click(Sender: TObject);
- begin
- if DLLHandle<>0 then
- begin
- @CStopDLL:=GetProcAddress(DLLHandle, 'Stop');
- CStopDLL;
- FreeLibrary(DLLHandle);
- DLLHandle:=0;
- Showmessage('Starter DLL unloaded');
- end;
- end;
-
- the mbm5starter.dll will always created a sub dir called dll and
- copy the mbm.dll into this directory, this is needs to be done
- and can not be avoided
-
- as of version > 5.3.5.0 there are 2 new function:
-
- function SetPrio(X : Byte) : Boolean; stdcall;
- function SendPath(Path : Pchar) : Boolean;
-
- With SetPrio you can increase the priority of the timer loop in
- the dll, use the following table:
-
- 0: Idle
- 1: Lowest
- 2: Lower
- 3: Normal
- 4: Higher
- 5: Highest
- 6: TimeCritical
-
- With SendPath you can send a new path to the dll in case it has
- no access to HKEY_CURRENT_USER, if you get a result of 0 back
- then this is your problem, send your new path BEFORE you do the
- start function. The path should contain the base directory of
- MBM.
-
-
- ****************************************************************
- MBM5ST.exe

-
- Simple program that will start the MBMstarter.dll, ment for
- those people who have problems starting the dll themselves.
