Problem using WinVerifyTrust Function

Question

Visual Basic .NET Framework

Hello, as @Drake Wu - MSFT said, I used WinVerifyTrust but
when I code
dim Result as long = WinVerifyTrust(........)
if result = 0 then
'verified successfully
else
'not verified
end if

it throws an exception: MarshalDirectiveException

I don't know ho to solve and i think i code GUID , pointer. . . . correctly..

Thanks

Hi, @VB_al MarshalDirectiveException seems to be caused by the calling convention of the function. The calling convention of WinVerifyTrust is the __stdcall:

You can try to explicitly declare as CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall. If this still does not solve the problem, please provide your sample which shows how you declare all the types and functions.
