WIN32 API Programming with Visual Basic Steven Roman
Publisher: O'Reilly Media

The Visual Basic programming system provides visual user-interface design capabilities with powerful general-purpose programming tools, making it easy for any programmer to create compiled Windows .EXE files that The Visual Basic system also supports dynamic link libraries (DLLs), which allow the user to establish links with other Windows systems facilities and call the Windows API or routines written in other languages and compiled into DLLs. Click here to start Use Windows Control Panel to uninstall “Autodesk Inventor 2013 Developer Tools”, if it's already installed. In this visual basic lesson, we learn how to interact with another underlying set of code by programming the Windows applications interface (API) using dynamic link libraries (DLL). Apex programming is the new Visual Basic. In this guide, you will be working with the Autodesk Inventor COM API and the Visual Basic programming language. You can choose (in visual studio) to create a console application and use something like glut to do all your menuing and stuff. Because VB put an abstraction layer over the Windows API that was infinitely easier to use than coding to the native API or other available frameworks such as MFC or ATL. Its not at all as complex as the win32 API and is also outdated but you can build your own on top of cross platform has to be opengl(writing everything from scratch), qt, wxwidgets or the basic glut if you arent too anything too heavy.

A programmer can put together an application using the components provided with Visual Basic itself. In this article Jason shows us how to create a cool zoomable magnifier using Visual Basic 6 and the Windows API. Other than that, for the most part, you are going to be stuck with proprietary development dependent on the OS.
