api in vc++

how do i declare api functions in msvc++?

Simply export it as a WINAPI:

Code:

---

__declspec(dllexport) int WINAPI Iamanfunction(int a, LPCTSTR str);

---

If you want to use the standard Win32 API functions, then include windows.h. Most of the common API's are already declared in there.

i want to create a lib of api declarations for my vb project

If I understood you correctly, you wanted to make a library of custom API declarations?

Code:

---

extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) int _stdcall Iamanfunction(int a, LPCTSTR str);

---

You would have a much better luck asking this in the C++ forum. Parksie and the other C++ Experts usually hang out there.

k i will ask there
