एपीआई घोषणा और उपयोग

विभिन्न VBA संस्करणों के साथ काम करने के लिए DLL प्रक्रिया की घोषणा :

Option Explicit

#If Win64 Then

    Private Declare PtrSafe Sub xLib "Kernel32" Alias "Sleep" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)

#ElseIf Win32 Then

    Private Declare Sub apiSleep Lib "Kernel32" Alias "Sleep" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)

#End If

उपरोक्त घोषणा वीबीए को बताती है कि फ़ाइल कर्नेल 32.dll में परिभाषित फ़ंक्शन "स्लीप" को कैसे कॉल किया जाए

Win64 और Win32 सशर्त संकलन के लिए उपयोग किए जाने वाले पूर्वनिर्धारित स्थिरांक हैं

पूर्व-परिभाषित स्थिरांक

कुछ संकलन स्थिरांक पहले से ही परिभाषित हैं। जो मौजूद हैं वे उस कार्यालय संस्करण की बिटनेस पर निर्भर करेंगे जो आप VBA में चला रहे हैं। ध्यान दें कि Vba7 को Office के 64 बिट संस्करणों का समर्थन करने के लिए Office 2010 के साथ पेश किया गया था।

ये स्थिरांक कार्यालय संस्करण का उल्लेख करते हैं, न कि विंडोज संस्करण का। उदाहरण के लिए Win32 = 32-बिट ऑफिस में TRUE, भले ही OS विंडोज का 64-बिट संस्करण हो।

एपीआई की घोषणा करते समय मुख्य अंतर 32 बिट और 64 बिट कार्यालय संस्करणों के बीच होता है जो नए पैरामीटर प्रकार पेश करते हैं (अधिक विवरण के लिए रिमार्क्स अनुभाग देखें)

टिप्पणियाँ:

• घोषणाएँ मॉड्यूल के शीर्ष पर और किसी भी उप या कार्य के बाहर रखी जाती हैं
• मानक मॉड्यूल में घोषित प्रक्रियाएं डिफ़ॉल्ट रूप से सार्वजनिक होती हैं
• एक मॉड्यूल के लिए एक प्रक्रिया निजी घोषित करने के लिए Private कीवर्ड के साथ घोषणा से पहले
• किसी अन्य प्रकार के मॉड्यूल में घोषित DLL प्रक्रियाएं उस मॉड्यूल के लिए निजी हैं

स्लीप एपीआई कॉल के लिए सरल उदाहरण:

Public Sub TestPause()

    Dim start As Double

    start = Timer

    Sleep 9000      'Pause execution for 9 seconds

    Debug.Print "Paused for " & Format(Timer - start, "#,###.000") & " seconds"

    'Immediate window result: Paused for 9.000 seconds

End Sub

VBA रैपरों से सिस्टम फ़ंक्शंस तक आसान पहुँच प्रदान करने के लिए एक समर्पित API मॉड्यूल बनाने की सिफारिश की गई है - सामान्य VBA सब्सक्रिप्शन या फ़ंक्शंस जो वास्तविक सिस्टम कॉल के लिए आवश्यक विवरण जैसे कि पुस्तकालयों में उपयोग किए जाने वाले पैरामीटर, और उन मापदंडों के आरंभीकरण को एन्क्रिप्ट करते हैं।

मॉड्यूल में सभी घोषणाएं और निर्भरताएं हो सकती हैं:

• विधि हस्ताक्षर और आवश्यक डेटा संरचनाएं
• वेपर जो इनपुट सत्यापन करते हैं, और यह सुनिश्चित करते हैं कि सभी पैरामीटर अपेक्षित रूप से पारित किए गए हैं

DLL प्रक्रिया Declare करने के लिए, कोड विंडो की घोषणा अनुभाग में एक Declare स्टेटमेंट जोड़ें।

यदि प्रक्रिया एक मान लौटाती है, तो इसे फ़ंक्शन के रूप में घोषित करें:

Declare Function publicname Lib "libname" [Alias "alias"] [([[ByVal] variable [As type] [,[ByVal] variable [As type]]...])] As Type

यदि कोई मान वापस नहीं आता है, तो उसे उप के रूप में घोषित करें:

Declare Sub publicname Lib "libname" [Alias "alias"] [([[ByVal] variable [As type] [,[ByVal] variable [As type]]...])]

यह भी ध्यान दें कि एपीआई की सबसे अवैध कॉल एक्सेल को क्रैश कर देगी , और संभवतः भ्रष्ट डेटा फाइलें

मैक एप्लिकेशन के लिए VBA, Office 2016 का समर्थन करने वाले Office एप्लिकेशन के अन्य संस्करणों के विपरीत सैंडबॉक्स किए गए हैं।

सैंडबॉक्सिंग ऐप्स को ऐप कंटेनर के बाहर संसाधनों तक पहुंचने से रोकता है। यह किसी भी ऐड-इन्स या मैक्रोज़ को प्रभावित करता है जिसमें प्रक्रियाओं के दौरान फ़ाइल एक्सेस या संचार शामिल होता है। आप निम्न अनुभाग में वर्णित नए आदेशों का उपयोग करके सैंडबॉक्सिंग के प्रभावों को कम कर सकते हैं। मैक के लिए Office 2016 के लिए नया VBA आदेश
