Where are on the web the WM constants ??

[pamelafluente]

Hi guys,

what are the best place on the web where I can find the list of all thh
constants like:
WM_QUERYENDSESSION As Integer = &H11 (possibly with some explanations)
.... etc ...

to be used for instance with:

Protected Overrides Sub WndProc(ByRef m As
System.Windows.Forms.Message)
'...
End Sub

Thank you very much in advance

Awesome. That site goes in my highly critiqued, "guard it like you would
your own children" favourites list.

The most reliable way is to translate the '#define's in the according header
files. The name of the header file containing the define is listed in the
documentation.

My ActiveVB-coworker Christoph von Wittich provides an API viewer that can
export declares/... for VB.NET:

ApiViewer

English translation:

Ken Tucker [MVP] wrote an add-in for VS.NET 2003:

pinvoke.net is a web-based collaborative wiki that collects declares/... for
different .NET programming languages:

pinvoke.net: the interop wiki!

If you don't want to struggle with the declares yourself, you can use this
library:

thank you!! I have taken a look at:
http://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/Enums.WindowsMessages

impressive!

But isn't there a place where each one of these is explained, besides
than a list?

The MSDN Library.

Thank you very much for this resource !!

I just installed it!


PS
I saw that within the environment listed there is no .NET.
Is it the same to use vb6 ?

What did you install?

 

[pamelafluente]

it's called API viewer 2004.

Got the wrong one?

AFAIK it doesn't integrate with VS.NET, but in the ApiViewer's "Options"
dialog the programming language can be selected.
