HELP!!
I am dire need for a solution to update XP targetted legacy code being ported to Windows 7. The legacy code uses Remote Procedure Call (RPC) name service series of functions (e.g. RpcNsBindImport(), RpcNsBinding Export()) which are noted in documentation
as "function is not supported on Windows Vista and later operating systems."
With me being new with RPC, what in the heck do I use in their replacements instead? I have not found a solution yet.
***ANY HELP OR DIRECTION WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.***
