ThunderVB - Addin: Inline C and ASM

[thraka]

Here is a cool utility for VB I found some time ago. Don't know if anyone here has seen it but it seems neat. I haven't installed it yet..

heh I tried playing with this a couple times. I couldn't get it to compile. I'm sure it was just smarter than me. I sounds like a cool project and I can see how it can be used. Once your code is compiled, is there any dependency on the ThunderVB stuff?

I haven't played with it yet.

But from what I understand you have to provide the MASM compiler and some C compiler also to actually compile that code. Basically what it does is compiles those sections of code and enject them into your normal VB compile.

I would use their examples (That was probobly what you couldn't get working anyway lol) But I think it's possible to create the exports like a C++ dll does to where you dont need to register the dll as activeX and you can just import the declares into your project. Unsure though It's a cool pushing of the envalope so to speak. Hope some team picks it up since it's inactive.
