Soory, you probably can't. First off, why create a "custom" DLL? Just
include that DLL code in your main programs source, because there's not much
use in having a DLL that is only good for one program. But if you plan to
use the DLL elsewhere, you will have to include your main program's source
in the DLL (or at least the part needed by the DLL.)

The jist of it is that your not going to be able, as far as I know, to call
your main program's member functions unless they are defined in the DLL
itself.
