# GetDLLFirmwareInfo Method - neoVI API

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="C/C++ Declare" %}

```cpp
int _stdcall icsneoGetDLLFirmwareInfo(void * hObject, stAPIFirmwareInfo *pInfo);
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Visual Basic .NET Declare" %}

```vbnet
Public Declare Function icsneoGetDLLFirmwareInfo Lib “icsneo40.dll” (ByVal hObject As IntPtr, ByRef pInfo As stAPIFirmwareInfo) As Integer
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="C# Declare" %}

```csharp
[DllImport(“icsneo40.dll”)] public static extern int icsneoGetDLLFirmwareInfo(IntPtr hObject, ref stAPIFirmwareInfo pInfo);
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

**Parameters**

hObject

\[in] Specifies the driver object created by [OpenNeoDevice](/neovi-api/win32-api-overview-intrepidcs-api/basic-functions-overview-intrepidcs-api/openneodevice-method-intrepidcs-api.md).

pInfo

\[out] Pointer to an [stAPIFirmwareInfo](/neovi-api/win32-api-overview-intrepidcs-api/structures-types-and-defines-overview-intrepidcs-api/setting-structures-overview-intrepidcs-api/stapifirmwareinfo-structure.md) structure.

**Return Values**

Returns 1 if successful, 0 if an error occurred.

**Remarks**

This method returns the version information for the neoVI firmware stored within the neoVI DLL API. This is the version that will be written to the neoVI device by the [ForceFirmwareUpdate](/neovi-api/win32-api-overview-intrepidcs-api/device-settings-functions-overview-intrepidcs-api/general-device-settings-intrepidcs-api/forcefirmwareupdate-method-intrepidcs-api.md) method.

### Examples

int iResult;

iResult = icsneoGetDLLFirmwareInfo(m_hObject, &FirmwareInfo);
if(iResult == 0)
{
    MessageBox::Show("Problem getting the version of the firmware stored within the DLL API");
    return;
}
```

{% endtab %}
