I have a function with a paramter of c++ type:
unsigned __int64

DDWord and DLong were added in ATEasy v5. You need newer version than 4 to import the C (not C++) header file.

Isnt there a workaround?
Maybe define it as variant or any type?
Array of bytes?

If it is Val parameter, then you can use two parameters of DWord instead.
If it is Var parameter,  you can use Array of DWord (pass in array of 2 elements).
If it is a field In a structure, you can use DWord[2].

The first option worked!!!!

i am trying to understand what is the reason for a single parameter of dword[2] or byte[8] wont work.
can you explain?

Re: Import C++ dll into ateasy 4

You  have a Val and not Var parameter. Val parameter expect the the value to be pushed to the stack while Var parameter expect a pointer to the data. When you pass array argument it always push a pointer to the stack - so that is why it is suitable only for the Var case.
