Hi Jelks, I knew I could count on you to raise the issue! <grin> As it happens, I spent a few hours yesterday working on the .NET wrapper. It seems like this should be a simple task, but it is turning out to be the typical MS pain in the, er, posterior. I think the VC7 byte-code compiler is still a bit green. I am getting messages that have no visible appearance to the code itself. If only because the environment is more mature, it might be easier to generate a COM dispatch wrapper using ATL for TidyLib. Is that what you have in mind? You are right, you cannot just call the DLL directly from VB, say. Some wrapper code is necessary. For VB 5 and 6, this is preferably COM-based. For VB7, it wants .NET but could probably still use COM, I haven't played with it yet. A COM interface would also make TidyLib accessible from Delphi and many other Windows languages. take it easy, Charlie At 05:45 PM 8/14/2002 -0400, you wrote: >Charlie, any possibility of a TidyCOM-like DLL based on the new sources? > >From my meager understanding, you can't just the current Win32 DLL for >this, right? > >/Jelks
