A useful feature that could be added to the winbuilder script language to make winbuilder more extensible would be to add a feature to call a function in an external dll. I would suggest that it is limited to using string parameters.

Discussion of this was started at:

Even simpler the format of the called function could be fixed at:

functionA(int argc, char** argv)

or

functionW(int argc, WCHAR ** argv) if unicode is supported.

argv is always an array of string pointers where each string is null terminated.

This would be an interesting feature. I look forward (if implemented) to see how this would be used. There should be some safeguards in place to prevent undesired consequences and perhaps allow access only to a limited set of APIs.

But first we should eliminate the mess that is caused by some compatibility issues / discussions.

With the new approach I presume that not only the mess but also the discussions will soon be eliminated.

You didn't say anything wrong - AFAIK.

Maybe you missed an implicit reference, which I cannot of course give you.
