}
The Design Notes C API
In addition to the JavaScript API, the MMNotes shared library also exposes a C API that lets
other applications create Design Notes files. It is not necessary to call these C functions
directly if you use the MMNotes shared library in Dreamweaver because the JavaScript
versions of the functions call them.
This section contains descriptions of the functions, their arguments, and their return values.
You can find definitions for the functions and data types in the MMInfo.h file in the
Extending/c_files folder inside the Dreamweaver application folder.
