Including .h file?

[leofenix]

Hi, I want to use the Vmware VIX API with Purebasic and I'm having difficulties to understand how to transform the vix.h and other .h files the API has to Purebasic. I can use the API trough Comate but I want to access the API directly, is there an example or quick way to include or transform the C headers files of the Vix API to PB? Thanks in advance for the help!

You can use the headerconverter in pb:

Code: Select all

RunProgram(#PB_Compiler_Home + "SDK\Header Converter\Header Converter.exe")

but you have to correct something, to work.

Doh!
Didn't know there was a .h converter.
That would have saved a fair amount of typing.

@ts-soft
So, by fixes, do you mean adding padding to any structures defined?

the converter doesn't translate all or translate to types not available in pb

Without changes the most headers won't work, but my last use is some time back.
