DLLcall

[afrihagen]

I have a hardware device that has a .DLL to control it. The description does of course use C notation, and I want to use AutoIt.

The package contains a .lib, a .h, and a .dll file. A SDK command list gives:

BOOL DT_Robot_Init(HWND hWnd , int RobotTypeID, int DeviceID, char* ComX);

with the parameterdescription:

hWnd : The window handle

RobotTypeID : Name:1

DeviceID : Reserved

ComX : Reserved

The .h file contains the lines:

enum DTRobotTypes{rtNone,rtMiniCubis,rtPronto};

//---------------------------------------------------------------------

extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) BOOL DT_Robot_Init(HWND hWnd,int RobotTypeID,int DeviceID,char* ComX);

So; the question is how do I translate this?

[afrihagen]

DLLCall(".\whateverdll.dll","int","DT_Robot_Init","hwnd",$hwnd,"int",1,"int",1,"str","")

Lar.

That worked. After some thinking I set $hwnd to 0, and the hardware literally swung into action!
