Developers

 

If you are a developer that want to use CCAPI. You have a several option:

  • You can use the demo codes provided in the CCAPI Package for Developers (download link is below). You may find some example for a few languages such as C/C++/C#.
  • You can also use imcsx's implementation for C#, the specificity is that it is also compatible with TMAPI.
  • Finally if your programming language is not supported, or if you prefer to make your own implementation, it is possible to directly import the functions from CCAPI.dll yourself. The main functions to achieve that are LoadLibrary/GetProcAddress from the WINAPI, you can find them in a lot of languages C/C++/.net/Java, etc. 

 

The CCAPI (Windows) documentation is available here: Win documentation

The CCAPI (Others) documentation is available here: (Not yet)

There's a much MUCH easier solution. It's right in front of our faces.

for all the noobs complaining about an update, just downgrade to 4.84 rex, switch to dex, download ccapi for 4.84, spoof your firmware, spoof your cid and boom, all of a sudden you have access to your stuff. dex is better anways. if you need help doing any of the above go to youtube and look up "modded warfare" he has a full tutorial on how to do everything involving a jailbreak in great detail.

How about a quick update so we can use the apps we PAID FOR...  I own 3 apps, and now since 4.86 none of us can use them  

I would say that's almost illegal.
