How can I get the calling convention at runtime using type library whether using stdcall, cdecl, winapi or any other?
If a typelibrary is involved, you’re using COM. COM always uses the same calling convention (on a given OS), so it isn’t encoded into the type library. In the headers it shows up as
STDMETHOD(or something like that — I’m too lazy to check the exact spelling at the moment), but if memory serves it’s basically equivalent to__cdecl. If memory serves, there’s also an_STDMETHOD(or, again, something similar) that lets you specify a return type other thanHRESULT.
