Calling a Windows system DLL?

Nebulus · 20th July 2004, 05:37

Hey guys. I've been digging thorugh the docs, and haven't found an example yet of how to make a call to a dll that's native to Windows - user32.dll.

Are there any good script examples of making calls to native dlls? I've looked, but since it's 1 in the morning, my eyes are all blurry. Any help wuld be appreciated - thanks!

System plugin. See the web archive for more examples.

Yeah, I saw the docs on System.dll - it's a no go. Archives don't reveal much either. I'd love to see an example that uses a native windows DLL as opposed to HotSyncManager.... Anyone?

I've never used it with user32.dll myself but this page here has some documentation that includes an example using the system DLL with user32.dll that should help you. If you've already looked here and that didn't help then let us know which function you are trying to call in user32.dll.
