an error in connecting the dllmaker

I have generated the dllmaker and put it in the same directory of my flexsim model, but there is an error when I try to import the DLL in script.

I write the script like this:

/**DLL path: */ /**/"DllMaker.dll"/**/
/** \nFunction name:*/ /**/"mydllfunction1"/**/

The error is like this:

Flexscript Error VIEW:/active/MainPanel/BackPanel/SplitterXPane/SplitterYPane/ToolTabPane/TabControl/ScriptConsole/Script>script Line 2 syntax error, unexpected string, expecting end of code

How to solve this issue?

Software Version:

FlexSim 22.2.4

flexsim script dllmaker

You should store the dll function information in a treenode, and toggle that treenode as DLL function.

Then you can execute that node (for instance using the nodefunction command or the treenode.evaluate method).

Model.find("Tools/MyDllNode").evaluate()

Or set up a user command to use external code which will do that for you.

Is it possible to link the .dll file and execute its functions in my customized button in flexsim? How to achieve this?

Set up a user command and invoke it in the button press.
