ASP.NET + WIN32 API

[chapman]

Hello,

Can I use WIN32 API method such as PostMessage through
ASP.NET or Web Service directly?

I have tried, but failed.
Do aspnet_wp.exe block this kind of "direct" communication
due to security reason?

Many Thanks
Chapman

If you are using C#, you can use these in blocks of unsafe code.

Sounds like a bad idea to me. Defeats the purpose of a managed environment.

The default user account ASPNET likely does not have permission to do such
things.
Try using impersonation to run under a different account.

Thanks, I will try this out.
We want to use the unsafe code, because I require to
integrate our new program (written in C# and run on .NET
framework) with the old one (Win32 C++ program).
