I have a program which calling some APIs.

From debug window, I found that it will load and unload the dll frequently,is there a way to keep these dll in memory to eliminate the loading/unloading effect?

I use loadlibrary("somedll.dll"), but it doesn't help. I can still see the dll is load/unload during debug.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Solution 1

load and unload the dll for your optimal use. Other load/unload action are only reference counting as dlls are loaded only once per process.
