Re: [foxboro] FoxApi and visual Basic

You do have to create a "wrapper" so that the FoxAPI calls can be accessed
from VB. The wrapper will take VB style arguments and convert them to what
FoxAPI needs. 

Generally, such wrappers are written as C code with the calling arguments
setup to match the VB calling conventions.

No, we don't offer such, but I've quoted it in the past and I'm sure that
someone "out there" must have done it for a set of the calls in the past.

That source might be a good starting point for a shared development within
the user's group.

Subject: [foxboro] FoxApi and visual Basic

It's possible to use FoxApi with visual basic? I think it's possible to
create a DLL in C with FoxApi commands and after use the DLL with Visual
Basic?
