LoadLibraryExA(3w)

LoadLibraryExA3w

Usage

HMODULE LoadLibraryExA
(
LPCSTR libname,
HANDLE hfile,
DWORD flags
)

Overview

Load a dll file into the process address space.

Params

libname [In] Name of the file to load.

hfile [In] Reserved, must be 0.

flags [In] Flags for loading the dll.

Returns

Success: A handle to the loaded dll.

Failure: A NULL handle. Use GetLastError(3w) to determine the cause.

Notes

The HFILE parameter is not used and marked reserved in the SDK. I can only guess that it should force a file to be mapped, but I rather ignore the parameter because it would be extremely difficult to integrate this with different types of module representations.

Implementation

Declared in "winbase.h".

Implemented in "dlls/kernel32/module.c".

Debug channel "module".
