Do I have to know the WinAPI to write software using .NET and C#?
No. Personally, I consider it THE big advantage of C#/.NET that you don't have to familiarize yourself with the Win32 API anymore.





OK, maybe not THE big advantage, but one of the bigger ones. :-)
Reply:No! .Net framework has covered all winapi functions in the framework itself.
Reply:not at all, win32 is very hard and we can assume it obsolete in virtually every case
