    List of APIs? [Resolved]

    Is there a list of available API calls in the VB.Net IDE, like the Object Browser in earlier VB? I think Delphi has/had something like that. I know I can look them up in a book, but it would be easier if the calls were listed in the IDE. Thanks.

    No such thing . If you've not checked this resource , then it's worth a look . Some API for .NET are listed there and more . http://www.mentalis.org/apilist/apil...s&showinfo=yes

    another place to look is the MSDn Platform sdk it lists every api function, what it does, what versions of windows support it and what dll or header you need....

    VS.NET IDE has an object browser, look carefully in the IDE

    Do you mean the OLE/COM Object Viewer?. I looked at that, but didn't see any APIs.
    I didn't think of MSDN. I know I can look them up different places, but it was nice to have the tool in Delphi. You could just select one and add it to the code automatically. Maybe it was a third party add-in, we had a lot of them.

    I looked at that list while it is basicly true GetClassName and Name are no where near the same........ but i am worried says I about this new longhorn os what api will it have if any

    Longhorn will use managed code, but the Win32 API will still be available.
