[PD-dev] problem making a helloworld external

[walter jenner]

hello there..

i tried to make the helloworld external described in j.m.zmoelnigs 
"howto write an external for pd".

i used visual studio .net 2003 to build the dll, and had no errors with it.

then i tried using the external, and this did not work. the dll resides 
in the same directory as the pd file which should use the helloworld 
object.

i get this error from the pd main window:

load_object: Symbol "helloworld_setup" not found
 helloworld
... couldn't create

what a possible mistakes i could have made?

i'm using Pd version 0.39-2.

thank in advance
