Re: Apparent bug in Win32::API if function returns a float or a double

Which compiler did you use to build the dll ?

I used Delphi, I hope that doesn't lower my cred ;)

However, I have quite a lot of experience at both exposing and consuming
DLLs across the Delphi / C++ boundary, and I'm certain that is not the
source of the problem. Delphi allows you to specify stdcall / cdecl, and
I've verified I was doing that correctly.


I prefer to use Inline::C to access external libraries as I find it
more logical (less intuitive).

One of my colleagues has suggested I investigate something called XS...
