Hi
The only reference I can find to this is in an old Version 8 documentation which basically says it allows third party tools that were written for Version 6 (!) to connect to a Version 8 server.

I want to declare some functions in the file "TM1u32.dll",just like "TM1_CLEAR" or "TM1_CLOS",and so on.But my TM1'version is 9.5.
Perhaps,is there a new DLL file instead of the old file "TM1u32.dll"?

I think it's pretty safe to conclude that writing an API routine that calls a function from an outdated, no longer supprted DLL, is a really bad idea. It probably won't work, but even if it did, how long would it last?

Yep, I'd say there is enough documentation that should get you started and point you to supported dlls that get actually installed with 9.5.
If I am not mistaken you could find something here:

Just wondering how you actually came across it and why you think you need to use it?

The only place that TM1 will install these files is in the bin directory of your install folder. If you can't find TM1u32.dll that means it is no longer a component item in the 9.5 install. This means that you can no longer use the functions in this library.

Like the other guys are saying - you should use the supported functions in the API libraries that actually do ship with 9.5 instead.

I'd agree as well. For the record the last version documentation that I can find that library mentioned in is 9.1. You'd expect that the 9.4 release notes should mention that the library had been depreciated, but some old Applix habits die hard. Or perhaps they're also IBM habits as well. :roll:

Anything that was in that library will almost certainly have an equivalent in the current API.
