Introduktion
API står för Application Programming Interface
API: er för VBA innebär en uppsättning metoder som möjliggör direkt interaktion med operativsystemet
Systemsamtal kan göras genom att utföra procedurer definierade i DLL-filer
Anmärkningar
Vanliga operativmiljöbiblioteksfiler (DLL: er):
Dynamic Link Library | Beskrivning |
---|---|
advapi32.dll | Avancerat servicebibliotek för API: er inklusive många säkerhets- och registersamtal |
comdlg32.dll | Gemensamt API-bibliotek för dialog |
Gdi32.dll | Grafik Device Interface API-bibliotek |
Kernel32.dll | Core Windows 32-bitars bas API-stöd |
Lz32.dll | 32-bitars komprimeringsrutiner |
Mpr.dll | Flera leverantörs routerbibliotek |
Netapi32.dll | 32-bitars Network API-bibliotek |
Shell32.dll | 32-bitars Shell API-bibliotek |
user32.dll | Bibliotek för rutiner för användargränssnitt |
Version.dll | Versionsbibliotek |
Winmm.dll | Windows multimedia-bibliotek |
Winspool.drv | Print spooler-gränssnitt som innehåller API-samtal för print spooler |
Nya argument som används för 64-systemet:
Typ | Artikel | Beskrivning |
---|---|---|
Qualifier | PtrSafe | Indikerar att uttalandet om förklaring är kompatibelt med 64-bitar. Detta attribut är obligatoriskt för 64-bitars-system |
Data typ | LongPtr | En variabel datatyp som är en 4-bytes datatyp på 32-bitarsversioner och en 8-byte datatyp på 64-bitarsversioner av Office 2010. Detta är det rekommenderade sättet att deklarera en pekare eller ett handtag för ny kod men också för äldre kod om den måste köras i 64-bitarsversionen av Office 2010. Den stöds endast under VBA 7-körtiden på 32-bitars och 64-bitars. Observera att du kan tilldela numeriska värden till det men inte numeriska typer |
Data typ | Lång lång | Detta är en 8-byte datatyp som bara är tillgänglig i 64-bitarsversioner av Office 2010. Du kan tilldela numeriska värden men inte numeriska typer (för att undvika trunkering) |
Omvandling | Operatör | CLngPtr Konverterar ett enkelt uttryck till en LongPtr-datatyp |
Omvandling | Operatör | CLngLng Konverterar ett enkelt uttryck till en LongLong-datatyp |
Fungera | VarPtr | Variantomvandlare. Returnerar en LongPtr på 64-bitarsversioner och en Long on 32-bitars (4 byte) |
Fungera | ObjPtr | Objektomvandlare. Returnerar en LongPtr på 64-bitarsversioner och en Long on 32-bitars (4 byte) |
Fungera | StrPtr | Strängomvandlare. Returnerar en LongPtr på 64-bitarsversioner och en Long on 32-bitars (4 byte) |
Fullständig hänvisning till samtalssignaturer:
Win32api32.txt för Visual Basic 5.0 (gamla API-deklarationer, senast granskad mar 2005, Microsoft)
Win32API_PtrSafe med 64-bitars support (Office 2010, Microsoft)
API-deklaration och användning
Förklarar en DLL-procedur för att arbeta med olika VBA-versioner:
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
Ovanstående deklaration berättar för VBA hur man kallar funktionen "Sleep" definierad i filen Kernel32.dll
Win64 och Win32 är fördefinierade konstanter som används för villkorlig sammanställning
Fördefinierade konstanter
Vissa sammanställningskonstanter är redan fördefinierade. Vilka som finns kommer att bero på bitheten i den kontorsversion du kör VBA i. Observera att Vba7 introducerades tillsammans med Office 2010 för att stödja 64-bitarsversioner av Office.
Konstant | 16 bitar | 32 bitar | 64 bitar |
---|---|---|---|
Vba6 | Falsk | Om Vba6 | Falsk |
Vba7 | Falsk | Om Vba7 | Sann |
Win16 | Sann | Falsk | Falsk |
Win32 | Falsk | Sann | Sann |
Win64 | Falsk | Falsk | Sann |
Mac | Falsk | Om Mac | Om Mac |
Dessa konstanter hänvisar till Office-versionen, inte Windows-versionen. Till exempel Win32 = TRUE i 32-bitars Office, även om operativsystemet är en 64-bitarsversion av Windows.
Huvudskillnaden vid deklarering av API: er är mellan 32-bitars och 64-bitars Office-versioner som introducerade nya parametertyper (se avsnitt Anmärkningar för mer information)
Anmärkningar:
- Deklarationer placeras högst upp på modulen och utanför alla Subs eller funktioner
- Förfaranden som deklareras i standardmoduler är offentliga som standard
- För att förklara en procedur privat till en modul föregår deklarationen med det
Private
nyckelordet- DLL-procedurer som deklareras i någon annan typ av modul är privata för den modulen
Enkelt exempel för Sleep API-samtal:
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
Det rekommenderas att skapa en dedikerad API-modul för att ge enkel åtkomst till systemfunktionerna från VBA-omslag - normala VBA-underordningar eller funktioner som innehåller de detaljer som behövs för det faktiska systemsamtalet, t.ex. parametrar som används i bibliotek, och initialisering av dessa parametrar
Modulen kan innehålla alla deklarationer och beroenden:
- Metodsignaturer och obligatoriska datastrukturer
- Inpackningar som utför ingångsvalidering och ser till att alla parametrar skickas som förväntat
För att deklarera en DLL-procedur lägger du till ett Declare
i avsnittet Deklarationer i kodfönstret.
Om proceduren returnerar ett värde, förklara det som en funktion :
Declare Function publicname Lib "libname" [Alias "alias"] [([[ByVal] variable [As type] [,[ByVal] variable [As type]]...])] As Type
Om en procedur inte återvänder ett värde, förklara den som en Sub:
Declare Sub publicname Lib "libname" [Alias "alias"] [([[ByVal] variable [As type] [,[ByVal] variable [As type]]...])]
- !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Observera också att de flesta ogiltiga samtal till API: er kraschar Excel och eventuellt skadade datafiler
- !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Office 2011 för Mac
Private Declare Function system Lib "libc.dylib" (ByVal command As String) As Long
Sub RunSafari()
Dim result As Long
result = system("open -a Safari --args http://www.google.com")
Debug.Print Str(result)
End Sub

Office 2016 för Mac är sandlådor
Till skillnad från andra versioner av Office-appar som stöder VBA, är Office 2016 för Mac-apparater sandlådor.
Sandboxing begränsar apparna från att komma åt resurser utanför appbehållaren. Detta påverkar eventuella tillägg eller makron som involverar filåtkomst eller kommunikation över processer. Du kan minimera effekterna av sandboxning genom att använda de nya kommandona som beskrivs i följande avsnitt. Nya VBA-kommandon för Office 2016 för Mac
Följande VBA-kommandon är nya och unika för Office 2016 för Mac.
Kommando | Brukar |
---|---|
GrantAccessToMultipleFiles | Begär en användares behörighet att få åtkomst till flera filer samtidigt |
AppleScriptTask | Ring externa AppleScript-skript från VB |
MAC_OFFICE_VERSION | IFDEF mellan olika Mac Office-versioner vid sammanställningstiden |
