I have this rather strange looking couple of lines in my code, that I am trying to decipher. Does anyone know what it says?
[DllImport("kernel32")]
private static extern int GetPrivateProfileString(string section, string key, string def, StringBuilder retVal, int size, string filePath);
That line is known as Platform Invoke, basically it’s just making the function GetPrivateProfileString from kernel32.dll available to your program. Check out http://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/kernel32.GetPrivateProfileString for a little more information on that specific function.
