"High performance Visual Basic"

TweakVB.com is dedicated to helping you achieve the utmost is performance for new and existing Visual Basic applications.

Please note that although this product is still available, with the advent of VB.NET, it's quite outdated and really unnecessary.

Still, there are those that might find it useful.

Consulting

We offer a variety of consulting services in the areas of Visual Basic performance analysis and enhancement, SQL Server optimization, COM, DCOM, and more. We've built TRY CATCH style error handling into Visual Basic 6 when it was thought impossible. We've built interfaces to allow Visual Basic Projects to become WordPerfect Add-Ins. We've created object libraries that make multithreading in VB6 straightforward, yet powerful.

In short, we can help you make the impossible-in-VB a reality.

Products

We also market TweakVB, an Add-In for Visual Basic 6 that makes the impossible-in-VB not only possible, but easy.

With TweakVB, you can:

• Statically link Assembler or C modules directly into your compiled Visual Basic executables.
• Add Inline-Assembly right into your Visual Basic project for the ultimate in performance.
• Generate Assembly listings of your Visual Basic code.
• Use custom optimization settings on a per-module basis.
• Easily call Function Pointers using just Visual Basic code. No type libraries, no DLL's or any external files.
• Export functions from your Visual Basic DLLs, just like a normal DLL, with no external "shadow dlls" or the like.
• Build Control Panel applets and more using only native Visual Basic code.
• Increase or decrease your program's stack size.
• Easily generate Map files to assist in debugging.
• Much, much more!

All this is done by adding simple tags to your VB source. No extraneous files. No UI to manually configure and reconfigure for each new project.

Furthermore, TweakVB is completely royalty free.
