ASM in VB?

[Brian Henry]

Is it possible to incorporate ASM code into a vb.net app kinda like you can
do in c++ with __Asm? not really wanting to, but just wondering if MS ever
added this capability thanks

Hi Brian,

Based on my knowledge, VB.NET compiler does not support the ASM code
inline. We may need to wrap the asm code in the managed c++ and then call
in the vb.net.
Because .NET application based on .net framework was targeted for MSIL
language which is machine indepent, while ASM code is machine is machine
dependent, which will make the code unmigratable.

Hi Brian,
....nothing is impossible if not tests the absurdity

you must incorporate (oops...convert!) your asm code as a byte Array to pass
to the function: CallWindowProcA
