Question

Is it possible to make your own winapi function like GetPixel that work on windows, if it is what steps should make?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Yes and no. One way or another, you will end up accessing some part of the WinAPI. You may provide utility wrappers, and many parts of the WinAPI already are such wrappers. But you can't entirely avoid it. At the heart of Windows are datastructures that you just can't access directly.

But why do you want this?
