AllocConsole();
f = freopen("CONOUT$", "wb", stdout);
Should be all you need.
From what I understand the main application already has a console
open. If it's a standard Win32 console, this code should work
just fine and send all stdout output there. And if it isn't, the
dll will open one.
Don't forget to fclose(f); at exit. It's stdout so it won't really
leak file handles but you might get those silly codeguard warnings ;)
