Hi,

If I'm writing apps to call functions from the newlisp.dll, are there some other functions I'll need to declare and implement, other than NewLispEvalStr, and a method for getting the string from the pointer?

I mean, we can evaluate one-line lisp statements like "( println 275 )", with NewLispEvalStr. But what about defines, and other more complicated statements? Do we just send an entire lisp program, as a single string with embedded carriage returns, to the NewLispEvalStr function?

Hello,

Do we just send an entire lisp program, as a single string with embedded carriage returns, to the NewLispEvalStr function?

Yes, you can do this. You may also use load-command to load code into the dll.

Regards

Ok thanks, HPW. I have see any references to load-command in the external interface docs, but can probably
just use a DLL viewer to determine the parameters.

I don't see it documented anywhere. The only exports are

dllName, debugConsole, newlispEvalStr, newlispCallback, dllEvalStr, and WEP


Anyway, newlispEvalStr is good enough, thanks.
