    pinvoke.net[^] is down now for several days, at least? :confused: This is quite a loss to the development community. :sigh:

    I used it back when I was still learning P/Invoke ins and outs. Was useful at the time, but I stopped using it when I had enough of a handle on it that was faster to just translate directly from the C signature myself. Even then I still used it occasionally for copying large structs and stuff, just to save time. I know it's not quite the same thing, but I am a walking pinvoke.net so if you post a question in Q&A, tag me in on it, and I'll translate the C to C# for you.

      Just use the Google cache[^] of the pages from the site. Oh, wait... :doh: On a serious note, perhaps the Microsoft.Windows.CsWin32 source generator[^] might be a better option?

          Thanks for the offer. I foresee that I'll take you up on it!

            I am more curious why. Seems like author/owner is Microsoft employee named Adam Nathan. Also a author of a number of books. Googling doesn't suggest anything bad. There is a github site. But I did not look at that.

              This is a terrible news for me. From time to time I'm working on an old VB6 project, and Pinvoke saved me lots of times. Even when many apis does not have vb6 syntax there it was still a helpful hand.

                That's annoying. We'll have to resort to installing VB6 and using API Text Viewer...

                  Why am I not surprised by this? :-) I've had some decent results using ChatGPT for some coding questions - usually looking for how to get some obscure/poorly documented API going. It's not always 100% right, but often gets me on the right track. Come to think of it, I still hadn't had a need to ask it for any P/Invoke type of question... [Edit] Sorry for reviving week-old threads...I'm...let's call it, "catching up with a small backlog"...

                    FYI, it seems to be back up now. :)

                      Hey, thanks! It looks like someone took it over and removed all the spam. Good to see it back. EDIT: I spoke too soon. There's tons of crap.
