Hi everyone.
I recently made some sort of open source companion app for Winamp. It's basically an application which recreates the Winamp GUI in 3D and controls playback, EQ presets, the playlist, etc.
Late in development I got aware of the WACUP project (which is awesome BTW!) and was surprised to discover that the app works with it too (the x86 build), without me doing anything! I haven't tested it extensively with WACUP because I was trying to adhere to the Winamp SDK, which leads to my question: Is the WACUP API exactly the same, and if not, is it available?

It tries to provide as much of winamp's documented api where it makes sense &/or is needed for plug-ins & external tools to work. There's also things like the default taskbar text referring to winamp even though it isn't using it to run nowadays for helping maintain compatibility for things scraping that for what's playing.

The x64 build isn't as compatible with it just offering up what it needs without a lot of the plug-in compatibility baggage but the basics that most external tools use is still responded to.

I don't have any current plans to provide the wacup specific api as it's mainly aimed at my internal needs nor is it stable vs the winamp compatibility being there for those that need it (sans plug-in support with x64 which I might not support 3rd parties as it just keeps things a lot cleaner unlike the hacks, etc the x86 build has to implement).

Thank you for the very detailed answer. And my deepest appreciation for your work ,I don't know how I missed that such a thing existed for so long.
