Terminating A Process

[Builderman]

If I launch a new process just before I terminate the calling process from a DLL by calling ExitProcess(), will that process be exited as well?

if the DLL is mapped into the calling process space *which is the case most of the time* then yes ExitProcess will terminate the DLL and the exe. it sounds like you want a DLL to run without the process that called it, is that right? if so you've got quite a bit of work to do =(

also you should try avoiding Exit(Process/Thread) if at all possible. design your application to return normally.
