Why does this not work and make an error?

[mikecaliber]

ws_psapi_lib = 1
ws_psapi_h.l = OpenLibrary(ws_psapi_lib,"PSAPI.DLL")
*ws_EnumProcessModules = IsFunction(ws_psapi_h,"EnumProcessModules")
CloseLibrary(ws_psapi_lib)



Enter that code into your pb and run it.... I get a Windows runtime error. I am trying to use that .dll call (EnumProcessModules) as it is not one of the "built-in" calls in PB. I don't think that the PSAPI library is supported natively by PB yet, right?

Are you sure that the dll is opened properly (you don't check this in the code you posted here)?

You must pass the 'ws_psapi_lib' value to IsFunction, not the other one.

thanks freak!

i am an idiot for missing that-

in the following code,

DWORD FindModule (HANDLE hProcess, const char* sModule)
{
HMODULE hMod[1024];
DWORD cbNeeded;

If( EnumProcessModules( hProcess, hMod, SizeOf(hMod), &cbNeeded) )
{
For ( unsigned int i=0 ; i < (cbNeeded / sizeof(HMODULE)) ; i++ )
{
char sModName[MAX_PATH];

GetModuleBaseNameA( hProcess, hMod, sModName, SizeOf(sModName) );

If ( !stricmp(sModName, sModule) )
{
Return (DWORD)hMod;
}
}
}

Return 0;
}

which is c++, what would I do to make the conversion to PB. for instance-

the HANDLE type, what do i use there? the HMODULE type? what to use there? swap DWORD with .l?

also, what would be a good way to convert the line:

HMODULE hMod[1024];

into pb? what does this do and what would be the code that would represent this in pb?




best,
mike
