Import a WinDev window in .NET project

Hi everybody,
is it possible to import a window from a WinDev project into a .Net project developed with Visual Studio?

Thanks in advance.

Yep You can import and use a WINDEV window in f.i. your C sharp app.

// C#  import WINDEV stuff
using WL;

//.... Menu Item click
private void OnWDClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            WDWindow w = new WDWindow();
            w.openWindow();
        }

The Windev class WDWindow:

// method openWindow
PROCEDURE PUBLIC openWindow()
OpenChild(Windev_Window)

Please note :
1)
Check the Window/Detail properties :
Include compiled code [x]
2)
Add your assembly and the WD110NET2.DLL to your project reference !
(I am still using WD11, WD12 this file is probabely WD120NET2.DLL)
3)
copy all required WD framework DLLs. into your bin/release as well as bin/debug directory.

I am using Visual c# Express 2008 (it's free)

I'll make some further tests (parameter passing etc and let you know what I've learned;
In case of interest.

Yes, everything is working fine except WINDEV MDI child windows.

I guess (have to debug a lot to be sure) that our WINDEV MDI child window. simply has NO information about it's parent windows workspace . Makes sense n'est pas ?

A solution could be to pass position parameters from our
DOT NET MDI Parent window to our WINDEV MDI Child window.

// C #
using WL;

 private void OnWDClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
          
            string win_name = "Windev_Fenster";
            string win_alias = "Windev MDI Child";

            WDWindow w = new WDWindow();  // a WINDEV class

            w.openMDIChild(win_name, win_alias,10,10,500,300); // x,y,w,h
        }

Of course : The positions x,y are relative

So in case that you have a smart solution regarding : How to to embed a WINDEV MDI client window into an DOT NET Parent MDI Window , give me a pointer please!
