I'm looking into developing a program that sends info wirelessly from an IPAQ(PocketPC) to a notebook, and I would like to know if I could use the winsocket.dll in Blitz+. I am looking into MFC to accomplish this, but would much rather use something a little easier like Blitz+. I think its a good idea to ask before I start investing time in fooling around with Blitz+ only to find out it's not possible. Thanks! |

I dont see why not. As long as you have a .decls file in the userlibs folder which declares its functions, you should be able to use the library. This is assuming that Blitz will run on your Pocket PC. I havent tried it myself though so maybe someone else can provide more information. |

OOps! I stand corrected. I thought you meant winsock.dll. even so, the winsock.dll is usually called through an API call so I dont think you will be able to access it direct. Its do with layers & stuff. |
