I don't see how you could solve the problem in general. You insist on a C
interface to guarantee interoperability between different compilers or
languages, while at the same time trying to deallocate memory in the DLL
that the EXE has allocated. Obviously, compiler A cannot 'delete' memory
'new'ed by compiler B, even if they are both C++ compilers.
