總共就兩個部分,第一部分說幾個聲明API并使用的技巧,第二部分簡單講一下怎么動態調用DLL
玩API的人看到前面的描述肯定會心里MMP,廢話少說,看內容。
1、相對路徑聲明
這個最好理解
普通的API聲明長這樣:
Declare Function LZ4_versionNumber Lib "liblz4" Alias "_LZ4_versionNumber@0" () As Long
下面是其FullPath版本的聲明:
Declare Function LZ4_versionNumber Lib "c:\liblz4.dll" Alias "_LZ4_versionNumber@0" () As Long
下面是其相對路徑版本的聲明:
Declare Function LZ4_versionNumber Lib "..\Plugins\liblz4" Alias "_LZ4_versionNumber@0" () As Long
這特么怎么這么復雜呢,這三種都可以?下面也就簡單一解釋,不做深入研究,各位看官也就看看就好,能記住就記住。
先說FullPath版本,這是最低級的使用方法,一般人不會這么用;還有一種方法也可以指定FullPath,那就是使用manifest,manifest是個好東西,這個以后再扒。
然后是普通的API和相對路徑的API,這倆其實是一個原理:
對于VB6,怎么檢索DLL呢,當然是先檢索App.Path(1、不檢索子目錄;2、VBA里對應Application.Path)
然后再檢索環境變量目錄
很多人不知道怎么看環境變量,Win+R,cmd,輸入set,enter,就看到了所有環境變量
上述DLL靜態聲明,會在當前目錄和所有環境變量目錄,以相對路徑檢索DLL(如果多個路徑都檢索到,這個要應用檢索規則,這里也不扒了)
假設環境變量中有一個路徑:c:\xxx
那么API中的"..\Plugins\liblz4"和"liblz4",就分別對應了路徑:
"c:\xxx\..\Plugins\liblz4.dll"和"c:\xxx\liblz4.dll"
上面".."的意思是指上一級目錄,也即
"c:\xxx\..\Plugins\liblz4.dll" = "c:\Plugins\liblz4.dll"
2、動態路徑
先說怎么用,聲明就跟普通聲明方式一樣:
Declare Function LZ4_versionNumber Lib "liblz4" Alias "_LZ4_versionNumber@0" () As Long
但是,如果這時候在環境變量目錄下都沒有這個dll的話
在使用這個dll之前,我們可以用LoadLibrary這個API來加載一下dll,就可以調用"LZ4_versionNumber"了
Declare聲明函數時,是聲明函數指針,并指明入口點,VB6會通過內部函數DllFunctionCall(該函數會調用LoadLibraryA)來調用外部API
如果Declare時,在所有路徑都找不到DLL,而這時候,你主動使用LoadLibrary加載了該DLL
這時候,就解決了加載DLL的問題,相當于運行時重定向DLL
3、修改環境變量
VB6程序在加載時,會優先加載App.Path
然后會加載進程環境變量,進程環境變量
這里相關的API有5個,這里用到的就前2個:
Declare Function GetEnvironmentVariableA Lib "kernel32" (ByVal lpName As String, ByVal lpBuffer As String, ByVal nSize As Long) As Long '單個獲取進程環境變量 Declare Function SetEnvironmentVariableA Lib "kernel32" (ByVal lpName As String, ByVal lpValue As String) As Long '單個設置進程環境變量 Declare Function GetEnvironmentStringsA Lib "kernel32" () As Long '獲取當前進程所有環境變量 Public Declare Function SetEnvironmentStringsA Lib "kernel32" (ByVal lpszEnvironmentBlock As Long) As Long '設置當前進程所有環境變量 Public Declare Function FreeEnvironmentStringsA Lib "kernel32" (ByVal lpszEnvironmentBlock As Long) As Long '清理臨時指針
然后加環境變量就是這樣操作:
Dim lngRet As Long Dim strDest As String Dim arr() As String, i As Long Dim boolIn As Boolean '路徑是否在環境變量中 Const MAX_BUFFER = 9000& strDest = String$(MAX_BUFFER, Chr(0)) GetEnvironmentVariableA "Path", strDest, MAX_BUFFER + 1 '獲取當前進程的Path環境變量 lngRet = InStr(strDest, Chr(0)) strDest = Left(strDest, lngRet - 1) '清掉緩存字符 arr = Split(strDest, ";") '判斷路徑是否已經在環境變量中 For i = LBound(arr) To UBound(arr) If arr(i) = strMatch Then boolIn = True Exit For End If Next i If boolIn = False Then SetEnvironmentVariableA "Path", strDllPath & ";" & strDest '設置當前進程的Path環境變量,加在最前面 End If
這樣設置之后,檢測DLL的時候,就多了一個自定義設置的strDllPath路徑了
以下內容多且復雜,初學者直接跳過,由于這里對外鏈卡得比較嚴,我就只敢貼代碼。
所以,需要探討的,在評論里交流
很多時候,開發者不想寫那么多Declare,就論這個問題,其實有兩個解決方案。
一個是使用tlb,現在有很多包含win32api的tlb文件,tlb文件制作簡單,在編寫代碼時引用到工程里,發布程序時不需要附帶tlb文件
還有一種方案就是動態調用:
說起來方法其實很簡單
第1步:LoadLibrary,加載DLL模塊到內存
第2步:GetProcAddress,獲取DLL里的API函數指針
第3步:CallWindowProc或者DispCallFunc,調用函數
第4步:FreeLibrary,用完了釋放函數
但是如果真的要自己去研究,而且要支持多種調用約定的話,就比較麻煩了。
像CallWindowProc,在不寫匯編代碼的情況下,只能支撐有4個參數的API
這里當然不會講怎么寫匯編代碼,所以這里推薦幾個已有的輪子:
不用知其所以然,只用知道怎么用就好。
第1個:DispCallFunc方案
vbforums論壇高人Lavolpe寫的類cUniversalDLLCalls.cls,理論上支持9種調用約定

' the Err.LastDLLError value. It will be non-zero if the function failed else zero.
' If the method succeeds, there is no guarantee that the function you called succeeded. The
' success/failure of that function would be indicated by this method's return value.
' If calling a sub vs function & this method succeeds, the return value will be zero.
' Summarizing: if method fails to execute, Err.LastDLLError value will be non-zero
' If method executes ok, return value is from the DLL you called
' Parameters:
' LibName. The dll name. You should always include the extension else DLL is used
' See LoadLibrary documentation for more: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms684175%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
' FunctionName. The DLL function to call. This is case-senstiive
' To call a function by ordinal, prefix it with a hash symbol, i.e., #124
' HasStringParams. Provide one of the 3 available values
' STR_NONE. No parameters are strings or all strings are passed via StrPtr()
' STR_UNICODE. Any passed string values are for a Unicode function, i.e., SetWindowTextW
' STR_ANSI. Any passed string values are for an ANSI function, i.e., SetWindowTextA
' Important: If you pass one of FunctionParameters a String variable, you must include
' STR_UNICODE or STR_ANSI depending on what version function you are calling
' See the FunctionParameters section below for more
' FunctionReturnType. Describes what variant type the called function returns
' If calling a subroutine that does not return a value, use CR_None
' CallConvention. One of various DLL calling conventions
' You must know the calling convention of the function you are calling and the number
' of parameters, along with the parameter variable type
' FunctionParameters. The values and variant type for each value as required by the function
' you are calling. This is important. Passing incorrect variable types can cause crashes.
' There is no auto-conversion like VB would do for you if you were to call an API function.
' To ensure you pass the correct variable type, use VBs conversion routines:
' Passing a Long? CLng(10), CLng(x). Passing an Integer? CInt(10), CInt(x)
' Special cases:
' UDTs (structures). Pass these using VarPtr(), i.e., VarPtr(uRect)
' If UDT members contain static size strings, you should declare those string members
' as Byte arrays instead. When array is filled in by the function you called,
' you can use StrConv() to convert array to string.
' If UDT members contain dynamic size strings, you should declare those as Long.
' When the function returns, you can use built-in functions within this class to
' retrieve the string from the pointer provided to your UDT.
' Arrays. DO NOT pass the array. Pass only a pointer to the first member of the array,
' i.e., VarPtr(myArray(0)), VarPtr(myArray(0,0)), etc
' Strings for ANSI functions.
' 1) Passing by variable name or value? i.e., strContent, "Edit", etc
' The string needs to be converted to ANSI, and this class will do that for you
' if you also pass HasStringParams as STR_ANSI. Otherwise, do NOT pass strings
' for ANSI functions by variable name or value. When passed by variable name,
' the variable contents are changed to 1 byte per character. To prevent this,
' pass the variable name inside parentheses, i.e., (myVariable)
' 2) Passing by StrPtr()? i.e, StrPtr(strContent), StrPtr("Edit")
' If the function you are calling needs the string contents, then do NOT pass
' the string this way. You must first convert it to ANSI. Else, you could
' pass it as desribed in #1 above.
' Rule-of-Thumb. If string is just a buffer, pass it by StrPtr(), then on return,
' use VB's StrConv() to convert it from ANSI to unicode. Otherwise, pass the
' string by variable name or value
' Strings for Unicode functions
' 1) Passing by variable name or value? i.e., strContent, "Edit", etc
' Internally, the string must be passed to the function ByVal via StrPtr().
' This class will do that, but it is faster (less code) if you pass all strings
' for unicode functions via StrPtr()
' 2) Passing by StrPtr()? i.e, StrPtr(strContent), StrPtr("Edit")
' Less code required, fastest method, no conversions required at all
' Rule-of-Thumb. All strings for unicode functions should be passed via StrPtr()
' Numeric values vs. variables. Be aware of the variable type of the number you pass.
' Depending on the value of the number, it may be Integer, Long, Double, etc.
' Numbers in range -32768 to 32767 are Integer, from -2147483648 to 2147483647 are Long
' Fractional/decimal numbers are Double
' If function parameter expects Long, don't pass just 5, pass 5& or CLng(5)
' Numbers as variables. Be sure the variable type matches the parameter type, i.e.,
' dont pass variables declared as Variant to a function expecting Long

其他的應用也有很多,但是這兩個類最強大,最穩健。
VB/VBA更注重如何用,作為系統腳本更中!
在《VB/VBA為何不需要所謂的標準DLL?》中給大家伙解釋了什么是標準DLL,為何VB/VBA不需要這樣的標準DLL。簡單總結下,標準DLL就是導出了指定函數的DLL,方便直接通過函數指針的方式進行調用。在VB/VBA中呢,就是可以通過Declare機制進行聲明和使用。但VB/VBA通過COM接口,要遠比Declare方式高效靈活,所以VB/VBA不需要所謂的標準DLL。
Declare相關討論可以參考《VB/VBA的Win32API聲明中,不得不了解的真相》《來聊聊VB/VBA函數》《VB/VBA中Declare聲明API時,這樣用效率又會增加一點點哦!》...
但是VB/VBA是COM的語言,編譯的DLL天生就是ActiveXDLL,也即是說天然就會有4個標準的COM導出函數,那為何還在強調是否標準與否呢?網友一針見血地說,標準DLL才不是為了讓VB/VBA方便Declare呢,想想其他編程語言要怎么調用VB/VBA的DLL?這就是今天要跟大家分享的,『為何VB/VBA不需要標準DLL,其他語言也不需要VB/VBA的標準DLL?』。
《VB/VBA為何不需要所謂的標準DLL?》也解釋了利用COM接口,在VB/VBA的IDE中,通過對象+『.』,非常便捷,使用上也很高效。從使用Dll函數的角度,無論是Declare還是直接使用函數指針,這都是沒法比的。
Declare不僅需要自己寫聲明,而且會內建一套類導入表的機制。就為了避免用戶直接面對函數指針,可謂是繞了一大圈。要在VB/VBA中直接使用函數指針,方便是方便,但得懂如何用才行,不然也不會讓Declare處心積慮地隱藏它。
這顯然與VB/VBA的定位和用戶群,是不符的。但無論怎樣,最后大家都是奔向函數指針而去的,因為指令層面就認這個超級GOTO+行號(Call/跳+函數地址)。
前面也說了,ActiveXDLL會導出4個函數,這4個函數就是COM對象使用函數的關鍵,也同樣是奔著函數指針去的。事實上,其他語言使用DLL函數指針是通過導出/導入表,與COM對象使用成員函數的機制是一樣的,這便是VTable綁定。這是VB/VBA唯一可以和其他語言平起平坐講專業性的地方,不過很可惜,VB/VBA還是通過類和對象將其遮蓋得嚴嚴實實。
需要了解VTable相關知識點的朋友,請繼續關注后續文章,VB/VBA的很多高階用法都離不開這一機制,比如函數指針動態調用,處理C調約(調用C調約API,提供C調約回調函數),IDE和編譯均適用的嵌入匯編等。
VB/VBA的COM接口中的VTable綁定機制,不僅兼顧了源碼編寫上的便捷和高效(對應IDE的智能提示和自動補全),而且也同樣兼顧了代碼運行的高效率,與其他專業語言不相上下(比如C/C++)。所以,VB/VBA中確實是不需要所謂標準DLL的。
1、先問VB/VBA的先人BASIC是干什么的?
其實,一開始BASIC,就以教員的方式,盯著如何讓文科一類背景的人使用計算機,所以如何操作計算機便是后來VB的核心基因之一。這個使用當然不是專業程序員那般細膩的控制,而是在更粗糙的粒度上的操作體驗。早期的BASIC沒有現在的鼠標視窗環境,這種使用,大抵跟很多人心中的黑客風,是差不多的吧。
如果調整下字體和背景色,還以為是黑客在搞事!
要拿到現在,是不是會勸退很多人呢?但在那個年代,這已經很親民了,畢竟學生們不用刻意去負擔半導體專業知識也能讓機器跑起來。后來,微軟加入了鼠標驅動的視窗環境,BASIC再一次脫胎換骨為VB/VBA,以一夫當關萬夫莫開的氣勢,撐起了大家對Windows的好奇,微軟自然也贏得了小白們的選票,真正演繹了『得小白者得天下』的真理!
2、再問VB/VBA是什么?
如果說MS-DOS是微軟背靠IBM積累家底的量變階段,那后來的VB/VBA就是微軟翅膀硬了,與IBM分道揚鑣各奔前程的資本。以現在的計算機環境,是很難理解VB竟然這么牛叉的。相信不少上個世紀80/90年代過來的程序員,是很清楚當時編程的門檻有多高。
專業程序員,都是寶啊,可遇不可求的那種。突然來一個,拖拖拽拽,三五分鐘就可以弄個示例軟件出來的工具,那必然是爆炸性的。不僅僅因為可以在廣袤的普通百姓心里種下編程的種子,為后來的程序員職業的繁榮立下汗馬功勞。更因為微軟千方百計地通過VB,向廣大小白們演示著Windows的優越性。
要演示系統的優越特性,沒有方便之門怎么行。直到今天,仍然有不少老程序員認為,微軟為VB傾斜了太多的資源。甚至還有極端者認為,比爾-蓋茨只懂BASIC,而不惜改造C/C++規范,就只為VB能用上C/C++庫資源。雖然有點夸張,但對于VB/VBA而言,的確將系統的某些特性運用的爐火純青,這就是VB/VBA在Windows中扎根太深,而難以跨平臺的根本原因,同時也是Linux平臺上類BASIC語言難以超越VB/VBA,有其形而無其魂的原因所在。
后續會不斷分享VB/VBA是如何利用系統特性的,VB/VBA用戶又該如何使用這些特性來提升代碼的性能和編寫效率,歡迎關注哦!
VB/VBA一度是Windows功能的Demo工具,不僅有歷史的原因,更有歷史的機遇。一方面,當年BASIC的教學設計,就重在普適的人機交互,以BASIC起家的微軟,自然門兒清。因為說到底,再牛逼的技術和機器,也是要給人服務的。另一方面,背靠IBM的十余年間,BASIC不僅替微軟摸排了市場的真實需求(痛點),更為微軟培養了無數BASCI粉。所以,當微軟與將IBM分道揚鑣時,具有普適性(視窗+鼠標)的VB自然當仁不讓地挑起了大梁,并伴隨著Windows的不斷完善而得到改進。
其實,這是一個相互成就的過程,并非微軟一心偏袒VB。雖然,今天的VB/VBA確顯老舊,但不可否認VB/VBA一身武藝,都是實實在在的精華。這是不深入Windows和VB,就了解不到的真相。
《什么是腳本語言?為何VBA不算腳本語言?》便是VB的冰山一角,更多背景可閱讀《以史為鑒,編程語言,啟示錄之系統覺醒》《VB前傳,從教學到游戲,再到系統,似乎每步都是精心設計》等文章。
VB/VBA作為與系統相伴成長起來的可視化編程工具,是一個前可見古人,后不見來者的歷史遺產。筆者之所以,極力推薦那些沒有過多精力,但又想通過編程提升效率的職場人士學習VB/VBA,其實就是看中VB/VBA的這種系統功能的膠水能力。在Win上VB/VBA就是那個最強的膠水語言!
3、為何不需要VB/VBA的標準DLL?
弄懂了VB/VBA的背景,自然就好理解為何不需要VB/VBA來制造所謂標準DLL了。在前面說了,VB/VBA本身對標準DLL的需求并非不可或缺,大家責難VB/VBA無法輸出標準DLL,大抵是因為其他編程工具,用函數指針的方式來使用VB/VBA編譯的DLL函數時,不管用了!
這個原因,其實在前面的VTable關鍵字附近,已經回答了。不知道如何調用ActiveXDLL中的函數,純粹是不懂,而并非人家爛。更何況,VB/VBA在編譯時,可以導出函數。只是,筆者會認為VB/VBA的標準DLL,會和市場反應一樣,并沒有人需要。
作為系統特色的表演者,VB/VBA也只是個看菜下飯的家伙,眾物不過工具而已,拼湊才是她的本事。它保留了多種代碼執行模式,不僅可以作為命令行的終極宿主執行各種系統命令,也可以于碼海中隨意抽取逐句執行,更可以直接執行指定的機器指令。不僅面向過程,也面向對象,更有函數式。不僅用作腳本,自動化,輕代碼化,當好護花使者,也可以編譯獨立行走江湖。不僅有編譯器語句打底,更有內置函數、系統和非系統API的裝扮。不僅與所謂標準DLL耍朋友,更是與COM拜把子。但所有這些,都只不過保留了一種能力上的接口,并未過多修飾。
用過的人,都知道VB/VBA在語句和內置函數上表現出來的封裝性并不高,它甚至都無法做到IDE的代碼折疊。一方面VB/VBA容易使用,容易上手,另一方面VB/VBA又很難精通。所以,她注定無法在代碼的流水線上留下自己的職位。
同作為功能的膠水,自然可以拿大家公認的Python來做類比。Python的強大,是因為豐富的庫資源,和她的撮合能力。但是,有幾個直接拿Python去干輪子的?道理是一樣的,VB/VBA擅長的,是使用系統里面各色資源,而非制造資源。VB/VBA在使用上的安全性、包容性無一不是圍繞使用資源而展開的,在VB/VBA的編譯器(解釋器)里充斥著大量讓專業人士嗤之以鼻的模板化的指令,就意味著VB/VBA生而不為輪子,她是輪子的用戶!
道理還是一樣的,這貨制造的輪子,性能不咋地啊!雖然可以通過手術方式進行二次加工,讓其更優化,但已經脫離VB/VBA的高使用效率和低危錯誤的立身之本了。所以,其他語言不需要VB/VBA的標準DLL,VB/VBA也不打算提供標準DLL,就這么簡單!
