    Windows API vs. DotNet 3.0 (WinFX)

    Hello,

    Does .Net 3.0 offering the same possibilities like Windows API?

    is .NET 3.0 going to replace the win32-api in Vista/Longhorn?

    No Access anymore to win32-api in Vista/Longhorn?

      Not completely. It was a glorious goal, but some of the WinAPI still exists
      under Vista.

          Hello Markus,

          WinAPI is too big to be completly replaced by .NET
          ..NET only covers some (most used/popular) parts of API, and for some cases
          you need to use Platfrom Invoke to call you WinAPI functions to get the required
          functionality
