Does anyone have an idea of what library/framework/whatever Windows Live Messenger is using? I know a lot of applications in that era used custom made user interfaces, but I don't know what frameworks they are using.
I know the Windows API is not flexible enough to do that kind of stuff by itself.
@enigmatico it used the .Net framework of that era if I recall correctly.
I know ow they used to offer a stand alone application (they might still) that you could purchase that allowed Enterprise customers to used their Office GUI and add backend code. I see it all the time in applications like Epic used by the hospital system for all of my doctors. I can’t remember what the heck it was called.
Is this what you’re after, or am I misunderstanding? 😎
@gatewayy I believe they used VC++ and not .NET. There was WPF for .NET, I don't remember which versions (was popular in the Vista/7 era). But I'm 100% confident it's not that.
