Dynamicly handle not defined functions in a dll in dlephi - delphi

Question

I have a dll which defines a simple functions to show a message:
library testdll;
uses SysUtils, Classes, Dialogs;
{$R *res}
procedure ShowDll;stdcall;
begin
ShowMessage('ShowDLL testdll.dll');
end;
exports ShowDLL;
begin
end.
And my main file call this dll dynamicly using this procedure:
i defined a new type:
type
testdll = procedure;stdcall;
Then on my button click event:
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender:TObject);
var
dllHandle: THandle; //Don't use Cardinal; it's limited to 32-bits
test : testdll;
begin
dllHandle := LoadLibrary('testdll.dll');
if dllHandle <> 0 then
begin
#test := GetProcAddress(dllHandle,'ShowDLL');
if Assigned(test) then
ShowDLL
else
ShowMessage('Func not found');
end
else
ShowMessage('dll not found');
end;
This works. But I don't know if it's possible to handle not defined functions with my dll. My purpose here is to call a function without knowing if it will be defined in my dll. So i would like the dll to tell me if the functions exists or not.
For example here i only have a ShowDLL procedure. If i call another method which does not exists it will show 'Func not found' from my main application. But i would my dll to tell me this. Is this possible? If yes, how could i achieve this pls?
EDIT: I can't modify the main function this is only a test. In my final version there will be only the dll. So exporting all functions into my main application is not possible here. That's why i want to know id the dll alone can handle it rather than doing this in my main application which i can't do.
I don't have acces to the main application to modify any code in it. I only know what are functions that will be used in this application that i will later export in my dll using exports statement. So what i try to achieve is to catch a not defined function with the dll if it's possible.

Answer 1

Your code already demonstrates how to detect the presence of an export. Namely to call GetProcAddress and compare the result with nil.
You can reduce the amount of boiler plate code by using delay loading. This essentially lets the compiler generate the code the performs the checks. This relies on the delayed keyword.
procedure testdll; stdcall;
external 'testdll.dll` delayed;
When you call this function, if it cannot be found, an exception is raised. Indeed this behaviour can be customised, as described in the documentation: http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/en/Libraries_and_Packages#Delayed_Loading
Update
In a comment to this answer you state that the executable cannot be changed. In which case, the message that you wish to avoid will be shown if the function is missing. You ask if the missing export can be handled by the DLL but that is not possible. When you call GetProcAddress, no code inside the DLL is executed. All the processing is done external to the DLL by reading its PE metadata.
The obvious conclusion is that the DLL must export the function. If the true DLL does not, put another DLL in its place. Use an interposer DLL that exports the function. Implement the function by delegating to the true DLL, if the true DLL exports the function. Otherwise do something else, whatever you please.
