Maybe i am totaly wrong, but i think, i got the error because setting a default value for a struct can not be done so easy.

and here is the console based application code -
Foo.h

class __declspec (dllimport) CFoo
{
public:	
    CFoo();	
    int foo1();	
    int foo2();
};

__declspec (dllimport) CFoo foo; 

test.cpp
#include "foo.h"
int main()
{	
    int i = foo.foo1();	
    i = foo.foo2();	
    return 0;
}

Don't forget to set the dependency to Foo.lib file in the test project settings.
Hope this will help.

could I use extern to refer to the variable and use it?

So, from learning from you, it is legal to expose both function/global variable/class from a DLL?
