Symptom
-
In PowerBuilder, when trying to call an external function from a custom built DLL in the IDE environment, the following error returns:
PowerBuilder application execution error (R0014) Application terminated. Error: Error opening DLL library <dll_name>.dll
-
The same application works when you run as an application executable.
Environment
-
PowerBuilder
Reproducing the Issue
In the PowerBuilder IDE environment, run a testcase using the custom built C++ DLL
Cause
-
Conflict in base address used by PowerBuilder DLL (sybcsi_openssl29.dll) and the custom c++ DLL.
-
The sybcsi_openssl29.dll is only loaded in the PowerBuilder IDE environment. It is not loaded when running an application executable.
Solution
Recompile the custom c++ DLL to use a fixed address that will not conflict with 0000000002FE0000.
