 Visual Basic 3,4 and 5 for windows comes with an excellent API list, but I
don't know if API and DLL support in a future Win32 Euphoria would be like
it is in VB. For playing
a wav file in VB for example, just:
-----------
Const SYNC = 1
handler = sndPlaySound(ByVal CStr("filename.wav"), SYNC)
-----------
and in the declaration section:
-----------
Declare Function waveOutGetNumDevs Lib "winmm" () As Long
Declare Function sndPlaySound Lib "winmm" Alias "sndPlaySoundA" (ByVal
lpszSoundName As String, ByVal uFlags As Long) As Long
-----------
It would be great if this future Win32 Euphoria support DLL calls like VB
does.
