Ok so I am learning C++ slowly. I am familiar with all the console syntax and everything, but now I’m moving on to windows programming. Now what im trying to do, is create a DLL that I inject into a process, so it’s hooked in. All I want the C++ application to do, is have text in it, that says “Hooked” if it’s successfully injected, and an error if something wrong happened. Or even if I can do it without a DLL, Just open an executable, and when the certain process I’m trying to hook is opened, the status is changed to “Hooked”. Also I have a safaribooksonline.com account so if there is any good reads you would recommend, just write it down. thanks

    I think you might be looking at this backwards. In C/C++ an application ‘pulls’ a DLL in rather than having a DLL ‘injected’ into an application. Typically for plugins/hooks, there is some mechanism to inform an application of a DLL’s availability (often just its presence in a specific directory) and a configuration file or some other logic is used to instruct the application to explicitly load the library, extract a function or two, and call them.

    For Windows programming, I’d suggest doing a search for examples of the LoadLibrary() API call. You’ll likely find a tutorial or two on how to do it.
