1. DLLs in Windows 95 vs. Windows NT

I have recently been reading up on how Windows NT handles (32
bit) processes, threads, DLLs, etc. and how this differs from
Windows 3.1 16 bit applications. I (think I) understand that
Windows NT defines a 2GB virtual address space for a process when
it starts up. Any DLLs that are then loaded by the application
then share the address space of the process - as opposed to
having one local to the DLL.

The book I'm reading suggests that because of this then use of
DLLs for Interprocess Communication is *not* supported by Windows
NT and it suggests using some other method of IPC. Does Windows
95 handle 32 bit applications in the same way? In other words, is
it true that DLLs for IPC is *not* supported by Windows 95
either?

Any help is much appreciated.

TIA
