Ok.... WinAmp Plugin

Hi!
Ok..... I've decided to make an WinAmp Plugin with C#. But I need some help!
I need to get in "touch" with the WinAmp window.
For VB this is:

Public Declare Function FindWindow Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As Long
Dim hwndWinamp as long
hwndWinamp = FindWindow("Winamp v1.x",vbNullString)


For C/C++:

HWND hwndWinamp = FindWindow("Winamp v1.x",NULL);

Delphi Pascal:


var hwndWinamp : THandle;
hwndWinamp := FindWindow('Winamp v1.x', nil);



But what is it for C#?

And... How can I use WM commands?

Halstein,

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

--

[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
static extern int FindWindow(string lpClassName, string lpWindowName);

--

Console.WriteLine("WinAmp hwnd: 0x{0:X}",
FindWindow("Winamp v1.x", null) );


>And... How can I use WM commands?

[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
static extern int SendMessage(int hWnd, int Msg, int wParam, int
lParam);

const int WM_USER = 0x400;

--

Console.WriteLine("WinAmp version: 0x{0:X}",
SendMessage(hwndWinamp, WM_USER, 0, 0) );


You'll probably have to add a few overloads for SendMessage to get the
different parameter types right. Take a look at the PInvoke docs and
samples in the .NET SDK.

John Lemp, over at illdata has made a winampcontroller class that will pretty much answer any questions you have. It is part of a C# Winamp Server (that I have yet to get working), but his winampcontroller class works like a charm. Take a look at it:
