nbartomeli Posted July 11, 2003 Posted July 11, 2003 So much has changed since VB6.. Is there any resources out there that help better illustrate how to access API through VB or C# .NET? Thanks in advance -Nick Quote
*Experts* mutant Posted July 11, 2003 *Experts* Posted July 11, 2003 In vb.net you can call the API in the same way as VB6, for C# you need to use Platform Invoke, you can find a Platform Invoke tutorial here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/csref/html/vcwlkplatforminvoketutorial.asp Quote
AndreRyan Posted July 12, 2003 Posted July 12, 2003 But you should try to find the function you want built into the .Net framework first, since it includes common APIs already Quote .Net allows software to be written for any version of Windows and not break like Unmanaged applications unless using Unmanaged procedures like APIs. If your program uses large amounts of memory but releases it when something else needs it, then what's the problem?
