So, when executing any of these functions, they are called directly from the executable, and therefore this code works in VO: function GetExeFileName() as string local pszBuffer as psz local cName as string pszBuffer := MemAlloc( 1024 ) GetModuleFileName( _GetInst(), pszBuffer, 1023 ) cName := PSZ2String( pszBuffer ) MemFree( pszBuffer ) return cName text/html 2018-03-03T05:53:48+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://docs.xsharp.it/doku.php?id=vo_to_net:getregistrydword&rev=1520056428&do=diff GetRegistryDWord() Consider the following VO function: function RegistryDWord( hKey as ptr, cSubKey as string, cValueName as string ) as int pascal local ptrKey as ptr local nData as int local nResult as long local nLen as dword nResult := RegOpenKeyEx( hKey, String2Psz( cSubKey ), 0, KEY_QUERY_VALUE, @ptrKey ) if nResult == ERROR_SUCCESS nLen := 4 nResult := RegQueryValueEx( ptrKey, String2Psz( cValueName ), null_ptr, null_ptr, @nData, @nLen ) if nResult != ERROR_SUCCESS nData :=… text/html 2018-07-29T05:22:30+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://docs.xsharp.it/doku.php?id=vo_to_net:pcall&rev=1532841750&do=diff PCall vs PCallNative PCall() and PCallNative() are pseudo-functions or intrinsic functions - they do not need any runtime because they are replaced by the compiler. The X# compiler needs a typed function pointer for PCall() to work (and you need the compiler switch /vo6
