cURL and Expat Dependencies

[PatPeter]

Hello all,

I'm creating a plugin with cURL and Expat dependencies. Just like the ts3overlay, I would like to put the DLLs in my plugin's folder, but have no idea how to make an explicit reference to those libraries.

My code with cURL linked compiles but results in:

Plugin failed to load:
Failed to open plugin.

Thanks,
PatPeter

That is because it's missing the linked dependencies. If you put the dependencies into the TS3 Main Folder it will load, but you said you would prefer not to do that.
I don't know how the Overlay Plugin does it, but you should be able to figure it out by checking what system calls it uses.

Oh, I forgot to be more specific.

That plugin error shows up after I put the libcurl.dll etc. in the main TeamSpeak folder,. It just has to be in "C:\Program Files\TeamSpeak 3 Client\", correct?

And I loaded ts3overlay in Dependency Walker and couldn't find any hooks.

the folder should be right. did you put the correct version (32 bit or 64 bit) of the dll in that folder?

64-bit libcurl.dll with 64-bit TeamSpeak. Here's GNU File:

PE32+ executable for MS Windows (DLL) (console) Mono/.Net assembly

@PatPeter: I had these problems with librarys as well. In the end it turned out to be easiest to compile a static library which doesnt need any other files. Maybe you should give it a try as well.
