What was there?

WlanClient class which could enumerate Wlan interfaces, query their settings, profiles, scan and connect to networks.

What is new?

Added OneX enums and structs. Renamed all enum values to conform to C# style. Added some functionality to WlanInterface (such as Disconnect). Added Hosted Network (on Windows 7+) control. Several times remade marshalling of variable length arrays. Now working with IntPtr which allows marshalling back au contraire to SizeConst = 1 arrays. Wi-Fi Direct API is started but not well described and well beyond original target of this project. All events concerning Native Wi-fi.

What has to be done?

Complete XMLdoc. Fix LinkDemands warnings. Provide alternatives for structs containing Dot11CountryOrRegionString (string of len 3) and Dot11MacAddress (PhysicalAddress equivalent) which are to be internal. Finish missing WlanInterface properties/methods: RadioState, BackgroundScanEnabled, SupportedInfrastructureAuthCipherPairs, SupportedAdhocAuthCipherPairs, CountryOrRegionStringList, MediaStreamingMode, Statistics, SupportedSafeMode, CertifiedSafeMode, AvailableNetworks, Profiles, BssList, Capability, IhvControl. Finish missing WlanClient properties/methods: ExtractPsdIeDataList, SetPsdIeDataList, GetSecuritySettings, SetSecuritySettings, FilterList. Create or abandon special WlanProfile class (name, xml, custom data). Fix any misplaced events between WlanInterface and WlanClient. Determine whether to drop WlanInterface.EditProfile method. Determine whether to drop the omnipresent and deeply annoying prefix.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to ManagedWifi, it has provided me with some insight to P/Invoke, events and gave me something to occupy my head during exam periods.
