From: Mr. X. on 28 Jun 2010 13:23 On VB-6 there was a file that has a list of all Windows' API functions (+ types), called API viewer (something like that). It was pretty nice, indeed, including abilities to copy + paste the whole function declaration to VB. but I didn't see it at all on VB.NET. Does someone know - where can I find such a file for VB.NET (or C#, whatever ....) Thanks :)

Take a look at <URL:http://pinvoke.net/>. but be aware that this website is community-driven and the declares aren't always correct. A better approach is provided by the P/Invoke Interop Assistant, which can be found at <URL:http://clrinterop.codeplex.com/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx> -- M S Herfried K.

There's no "built-in" replacement, but have a look at http://pinvoke.net You should still double-check every declaration you use. -- Armin |
