The DllImport Project (+/also C++ Wrapper) [Mango Support]

The DllImport Project

This project is part "Real DllImport" and also not the same time. It has limited DllImport to only types "void();" (well isn't that DllImport )

Other CORE functions that require multiple [IN] or/and [OUT] are to complex for the code right now (there are so many possibilities).


Terms of use, using the code (free to use, under my name "fiinix00 @ XDA"~ in app)

As posted to JaxBot

Well thanks for asking, this project is free for everyone, the one purpose it was made for.
The only thing i needed back is my name (fiinix @ XDA) included in whose projects (external) that take use of my code base. There is no licence or something (GNU e.g.), it just make people mad and confused.

So feel free to take advantage of the code whenever you want, just remember, i want my name on it. =D

UPDATE @ (2011y-03m-26d - 23:08)

Ohyeah, i can control zune from my application (Resume, Stop, Pause, NextSong, PrevSong, ShutdownZune, StartZune, ... to come)

Turn on/off radio remote from code. (DAMN, the radio begins to play without "No antenna" but no sound, plugin again and it sounds :/)


UPDATE @ (2011-03-27 - 14:35)
- Set clipboard (lol, doesent even have NODO): DllImportCaller.lib.Clipboard_SET("Hello");
- Get clipboard: DllImportCaller.lib.Clipboard_GET(ref [string]);
- Enchanted: Phone.Clipboard.Value { get { ... } set { ... } }
- Basic calls against void without arguments: DllImportCaller.lib.VoidCall( [DLL] , [Method] );
- API for verifying method existence: DllImportCaller.NativeMethodExists( [DLL] , [Method] );
- Raw API for controlling vibrator (unlimited "on", also continues to vibrate on exit, dont forget to turn off ): Phone.Vibrator. { Vibrate(), Stop() }


Source code + test XAP updated (2011-03-27-17:38) (Clipboard GET; is corrupt)

HELLO THERE TASKMANAGER!!
(I can now enumerate the running processes on the phone )
Proof: http://moitox.com/WP7tskMngr.png


Hook to keyboard, for some reason it only show interest in the "Search" button.

Documentation of proc:
[WP7Process].{ CreationTime, ExitTime, KernelTime, UserTime, <-UpdateTimes(), Kill(exitCode), { PROCESSENTRY32 RAW } }

^ for "currentProcess.Kill()" use "Phone.TaskManager.GentlyExitCurrentProcess();" the Kill(exitCode) KILLS

WP7Process[] = Phone.TaskManager.Named("taskhost");
WP7Process = Phone.TaskManager.CurrentProcess();


Documentation of network
- ConnectionType { Unk0, Unk1, Unk2, Connected, Unk3 ... }
- ConnectionType = Phone.Network.GetWirlessState;



Phone.KeyboardHook.IsKeyDown(int key)
> Search = 124 (lol)


Misc finds

DllImportCaller.NativeMethodExists("urlmon", "IsIntranetAvailable");
DllImportCaller.NativeMethodExists("urlmon", "ObtainUserAgentString");

- Code updated! (2011-03-28-22:12)


Added "Phone.DEP", dep is a wrapper against info stored in "Microsoft.Phone.Info.DeviceExtendedProperties"

Full "TaskHost.exe" support

HostInformation = Phone.TaskHost.GetCurrenHostInfo();

HostInformation {
fDehydrating = 0,
fRehydrated = 0,
hHostWnd = -25821178 /* This silverlight managed window (host window) */

}

Code updated! (2011-03-29-23:25)

new Phone functionality

Phone.OS.{ Shutdown(ewxCode) } /* 1.0.2 can still call it with "DllImportCaller.lib.ShutdownOS" (failed tho on mine in 1.0.2) */

Added "GetLastError7" (C++ ::GetLastError()) for better C# side error handling.

- Trying to implement a ASM virtual machine; example:

Custom tile support added(2011-11-07-23:08)
- Custom core tiles ftw!
[/CODE]

Source: Attatchment
-Compile VS2008 folder with C++ compiler from WM6 SDK
-Windows Mobile SDK 6 PRO
-Visual Studio 2010 (+ WP7 Silverlight SDK)

Test-app: Attatchment
-Deploy
-No need anymore to do a initialize button call, automatic called on first use in code "DllImportcaller.lib.cctor" by JIT (Net Framework just in time).
-Do some tests from the scrolling list. (due there are more CORE back-code API's than buttons, all tests can not be tested).


OLDER VERSIONS WILL BE DEPRECATED AND WILL BE REPLACED BY NEWER, MAX ATTACHMENTS IS 8.

Im trying the method, of c++ calling the calls for me.

In c++ i call "HMODULE dll = LoadLibrary("MyDLL.dll");" to get the native kerner32.dll e.g.
Then call "Dword addr = GetProcAddress(dll, "MyMethod");"


May work with some privileges bypass, not tested. (^ Not programmer, skip it)

Step 1 of 2 "LoadLibrary7" S_OK (success!)

int result;
var hr = lib.MessageBox7("lpText", "lpCaption", MB.MB_OK, out result);

And: It shows a native msg box

It ** worked!

var t = DllImportCaller.Call<string, string>("coredll.dll", "CeRunAppAtEvent", "emptyArgs");

LoadLibrary7( .. "coredll.dll" .. ) @ -1304248592
GetProcAddress7( .. CeRunAppAtEvent" .. ) @ 1105512120

Now just "box" and call it

Sounds sweet. Any code to share?

Well, last step now is to box it. Due "Compact Framework 3.7" there is no "Marshal.GetDelegateForFunctionPointer". But iw found something quite common.

Code, yes. (if i succeed)

Well, there we go. I did just shut down the phone with code (phone sided code)!

DllImportCaller.lib.ShutdownOS();

WithinRafael said:

So you wrapped LoadLibrary/GetProcAddress via C++/COM, how is this any different than what we have now? It's easier to simply write C++ code and provide a calling mechanism. (Which is what we're doing.)

The use of dllimports (gdiplus.dll located in "\Windows\" for example) in C# code. And you dont need to know c++/programmer to call c++ methods anymore.

The last annoying, to get that IntPtr (native) to become a managed method... (it is possible). Anyways its going great, i'll continue tomorrow

Hey any code on this?

Very soon (today @ Central European Time, dinner). Due im currently at work. The preview will not do all the way down to dllimport because the last thing for me is to figure out how to call the native IntPtr from c# with c# arguments.

Glad you guys are asking

Flow WP7 said:

Yeah, would be really cool if thats possible, then it would be possible todo everything over mscoree.dll, i guess?!

I found something intresting myself yesterday, the mscorlib.dll and System.dll on the phone are different from the ones in the sdk. (They contain a lot more stuff) Also the the mscorlib contains DllImports for almost everything.

If there is some way to get an internal class that would be also a great alternative...

Internal's -> typeof(CLASS).GetMethod( ... ).Invoke( ... ). Works perfect with </Interop> in manifest. Else "MethodAccessException".

And all those dllimports in mscore, plenty of them, most doing calls to mscoree
Goad is to do "DllImportCaller.Call( DLL, METHOD, ARGS )"~

Flow WP7 said:

I just tried this:

Type type = Type.GetType("System.PInvoke.PAL");
Type type1 = Type.GetType("System.Host.HostNative+FIND_DATA");

object createInstance = Activator.CreateInstance(type1);

And this results into MethodAccessException

I have a WPInteropManifest.xml, so what do you mean by:

This is going kind of off topic. Stay to topic.
Anyways, Activaror.CreateInstance cannot create internal constructots, you need TYPE.GetConstructor( ... ).Invoke. Check visibility of ctor.
