April 13, 200719 yr So I'm writing this little app in .NET, but I'm having some troubles getting the Operating System type. I can already get the OS version (Windows 2000/XP, etc), but I need to get Home/Pro etc.System.OperatingSystem osInfo = System.Environment.OSVersion;string windowsVersion = "Windows Version: ";int servicePack = 0;// Determine the platform.switch (osInfo.Platform){ case System.PlatformID.Win32Windows: MessageBox.Show("This program is not supported on this version of Windows."); System.Environment.Exit(0); break; case System.PlatformID.Win32NT: switch (osInfo.Version.Major) { case 3: case 4: MessageBox.Show("This program is not supported on this version of Windows."); System.Environment.Exit(0); break; case 5: if (osInfo.Version.Minor == 0) { windowsVersion += "Windows 2000"; windowsVersion += osInfo.ServicePack.ToString(); MessageBox.Show("Windows 2000"); } else { windowsVersion += "Windows XP "; OSVERSIONINFOEX osVersion = new OSVERSIONINFOEX(); GlobalFunctions.GetVersionEx(osVersion); switch(osVersion.SuiteMask) { case 0x00000200: windowsVersion += "Home Edition "; break; default: windowsVersion += "Professional "; break; } switch (osInfo.ServicePack) { case "Service Pack 2": windowsVersion += "Service Pack 2"; servicePack = 2; break; case "Service Pack 1": windowsVersion += "Service Pack 1"; servicePack = 1; break; } } break; } break;}I'm importing the GetVersionEx function from kernel32.dll. I'm guessing the problem comes from the enumerated data types that aren't properly passed over...Any ideas?
April 13, 200719 yr I did this in Vb.net 2005 on Vista so I do not know if it is what you want.If this is what you need here are the Project Files for this.
April 13, 200719 yr Author Thanks GSM - that's pretty much exactly what I want. I just don't know how to turn that VB.NET code into C#.NET... The My namespace doesn't exist in .NET, and I've yet to find an equivalent. That's why I moved towards importing the API import (as per jcarle's suggestion over MSN).EDIT - I think I got it actually... I sent a spoof program that just spits out information to a friend of mine, and got him to send me back the info.
