Noticed LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATH flag in LoadLibraryEx
Posted: Fri Apr 28, 2017 2:08 pm
I guess this is a way to avoid loading old DLLs that remain in the applications .exe folder?
FLibHandle := LoadLibraryEx(PChar(LibCefPath), 0, LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATH);

FLibHandle := LoadLibraryEx(PChar(LibCefPath), 0, LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATH);
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/librar ... s.85).aspx
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/librar ... 82586.aspxIf lpFileName specifies an absolute path and dwFlags is set to LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATH, LoadLibraryEx uses the altered search path. The behavior is undefined when LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATHflag is set, and lpFileName specifiies a relative path.
Note that the standard search strategy and the alternate search strategy specified by LoadLibraryEx with LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATH differ in just one way: The standard search begins in the calling application's directory, and the alternate search begins in the directory of the executable module that LoadLibraryEx is loading.
