Creates an instance of the EliteAPI internal object for the given FFXi process.

ELITEAPI_API void* __stdcall CreateInstance(unsigned int processId);

Parameters

• processId [in]
  • The process id of the Final Fantasy XI process to attach to.

Return Value

A handle to the created internal EliteAPI object. NULL otherwise.

Notes

If the process id passed to this function is 0, the EliteAPI instance is loaded as a resource-only module. This means that the Resources namespace functions will continue to operate as normal, but the rest of the API will be disabled. Keep in mind, when resource-only mode is enabled, EliteAPI.dll makes a best-effort attempt to locate the installation path of Final Fantasy XI automatically.
