Summary:

In Microsoft C versions 5.1, 6.0, 6.0a, and 6.0ax, the _export keyword

was defined to alleviate the need to specify all the exported

references for an executable (.EXE) file or dynamic-link library (DLL)

in a module definition (.DEF) file for a Windows or OS/2 application.

However, _export only works for function entry points. If you want to

export data, you must use a .DEF file to list the symbol name.
