RE: Advanced Plugin installer/uninstaller
I released my source code in the sticky thread...

About the VB source code... It should be the same functions.. same way, except you need to declare them....  Here's how:

Declare Function RegisterWindowMessage Lib "user32.dll" Alias "RegisterWindowMessageA" ( _
     ByVal lpString As String) As Long
Declare Function PostMessage Lib "user32.dll" Alias "PostMessageA" ( _
     ByVal hwnd As Long, _
     ByVal wMsg As Long, _
     ByVal wParam As Long, _
     ByVal lParam As Long) As Long

Then you would call them this way:

Long msg
msg = RegisterWindowMessage("MessengerPlus_PluginChange")
PostMessage(0xffff, msg, 0, 0)

That should do it...

Now I am working on an installer with support for both VB and C++. I am now trying to use MFC... my first app in MFC wow... I have a problem though... I call the PostMessage the old-fashioned way (::PostMessage) but somehow, the message doesn't get sent... cuz I get a file copy error saying that the file is being accessed by another process.... :( anyone knows why? thanks...

There are both SendMessage and PostMessage...

And now... not even Send Message works... :S
I don't know.. it could be my computer.. i'll see tomorrow when I start my computer if it's its fault (maybe it will correct at startup)...

The Visual Basic: Plugins

It automaticly detect the settings
Automaticly reloads plus!

Huuf...
Does your plugin installer work on your system for VB plugins?

I wrote a plugin installer that supports VB plugins and C++ plugins too... However, every time I try to install a _VB_ plugin, i get an error saying that the file is being used by another ptocess.... Same thing happens with your plugin installer.... I just want to know if I really need to format my computer (lol.. I was plannig to do that... now I probably have a good reason.. :))

Thanks...
