[REBOL] Re: Accessing DLL

Hi Abdel,
<< But when I tried to access a DLL it told me that the feature you are
tryoing
to use is not in this REBOL version!!!
How can I try the DLL access feature without being commited to buy the Full
REBOL version? >>
Well, that is a catch. Both Command and View/Pro support library access but
Core and Link do not at the present time. If you're developing a huge
system, it would probably be worth the $99 to get a View/Pro license to try
it out.
So far, I've had very good success with Windows API calls from REBOL. I
haven't tried any complex calls (e.g. array of structures as parameters) and
there aren't any docs on the system:// port yet which might allow callbacks,
but the basic mechanism works.
