Omnis5 – Using dylib — example using a framework.
register dll/call dll were never released and I found it was missing in Studio 8. We don’t use it at all on the mac, only in windows (which also had varied history, as I understand).
so Engineering only compiled the headers upon request so that we can put stuff into git instead of having code lines that look like x123124235 ( ) . That being said, since it appears that its a low use feature — might be why.
