To use this interface, build Haru as a shared-library (DLL) or use binary package for win32. There are some example programs in demo directory. The steps to run the demonstration programs is as follows. 1. Build libharu as a shared library and copy libhpdf.dll to "if\vb.net\demo" directory. (Or expand binary package for win32) and copy libhpdf.dll to "if\vb.net\demo" directory.) 2. Compile and run demo programs. (Don't forget to compile hpdfvb.vb together.) vbc /out:FontDemo.exe FontDemo.vb ..\hpdfvb.vb FontDemo.exe vbc /out:ImageDemo.exe ImageDemo.vb ..\hpdfvb.vb ImageDemo.exe vbc /out:LineDemo.exe LineDemo.vb ..\hpdfvb.vb LineDemo.exe vbc /out:OutlineDemo.exe OutlineDemo.vb ..\hpdfvb.vb OutlineDemo.exe vbc /out:Encryption.exe Encryption.vb ..\hpdfvb.vb Encryption.exe vbc /out:Permission.exe Permission.vb ..\hpdfvb.vb Permission.exe vbc /out:RawImageDemo.exe RawImageDemo.vb ..\hpdfvb.vb RawImageDemo.exe vbc /out:TextDemo.exe TextDemo.vb ..\hpdfvb.vb TextDemo.exe NOTE: If you try to compile this examples in Visual Studio I've found that I had to place the 'hpdfvb.vb' in the 'demo' folder, and I also had to change the default namespace for the project to 'empty' such that it found the hpdf namespace defined in that module. I've also successfully been able to compile just the hpdfv.vb as an assembly DLL, then used the 'Add Reference...' feature in Visual Studio to import the module as a utility so that I didn't need to include the actual 'hpdfvb.vb' source file into my projects. NOTE: libhpdf.dll is required to run the program which uses the VB.Net interface for libharu. This interface should work for all versions of .NET (1.1, 2.0, 3.5 etc.).
