In C++ it is valid to have two functions with the same name but with
different arguments as shown below;

float MyAdd(float A, float B)
{
   return 10*(A+B);
}


int MyAdd(int A, int B)
{
   return (A+B);
}

And

 float a =1;
 float b =2;
 float c=0;
 c=MyAdd(a,b);

this call will call the first MyAdd function with float arguments and assign
30 to variable "c" (10*(1+2))
And

int a =1;
int b =2;
int c=0;
 c=MyAdd(a,b);
this call will call the second MyAdd function with int arguments and assign
3 to the variable "c" (1+2).

There is nothing magic about the these.

The problem (and my question) is how we can put both of these MyAdd
functions in to a single DLL and expect to call proper MyAdd function
depending on the parameters passed ?

The first function will be called in
