I've noticed that the compiler/linker is generating Initialize and Finalize exports for each class that I have in the dll (e.g. @@MyClassName@Initialize). I have no intention in exporting the classes themselves from the dll; the dll's functionality will be export via __declspec(dllexport) extern "C" __stdcall functions so that the dll can be used from other languages like VB, Visual C++ etc. The classes within the dll are only there to implement the internal functionality. Guess there must be some compiler/linker options to disable the exporting of these functions. Would greatly appreciate if anyone could let me know what these might be. Tks - Adrian.

I've noticed that the compiler/linker is generating Initialize and Finalize exports for each class that I have in the dll (e.g. @@MyClassName@Initialize). Initialize() and Finalize() are not class methods. They are unit functions instead. They are the startup/shutdown functions for each source unit that the VCL calls when the library is loaded/unloaded. Quote: Guess there must be some compiler/linker options to disable the exporting of these functions. No. They are required functions when using the VCL, especially if you created a Package instead of a raw DLL, and/or if you included .pas files into your project.
