MSG Plus! Language? by MikeFairbrother on 07-22-2004 at 07:40 PM

Hi,

Im just wondering, if Msg Plus! fully VB or is it not VB at all?

Another thing, does anyone know how he got it to adapt to MSN because he would have to have some of the MSN Messenger code to adapt it to the program?

Anyway,
Thanks

The only thing I can say is it's coded in VC++.

He knows how to hook into MSN Messenger for some time. You can't say he needed the code of Messenger to do that.

Messenger Plus is coded in Visual C++ 7.1 .NET. No part of it is done in VB.

Nah, Plus is done without knowing the code of messenger and without reverse engeniering (<- dodgy spelling :P). Plus is completly legal in that matter (and in the rest too, of course). To do that, Patchou has spent a lot of time doing tests and coding.

you have to be a regular member at the forums, and help a lot. Then, Patchou may want you to be a tester. He chose us. Of course, you have to know a lot about Plus (its features and all that :P)

I became an official tester by applying to join the Plus! 2 Testers during the last few days.  I was carried over as a Plus! 3 Tester...for...I dont know why, ask Patchou, im sure he had a reason for carrying me over :P.
