How do I pinvoke to GetWindowLongPtr and SetWindowLongPtr on 32-bit platforms?

I’d recommend you deal with this the way Windows Forms does it internally:

public static IntPtr GetWindowLong(HandleRef hWnd, int nIndex)
{
    if (IntPtr.Size == 4)
    {
        return GetWindowLong32(hWnd, nIndex);
    }
    return GetWindowLongPtr64(hWnd, nIndex);
}


[DllImport("user32.dll", EntryPoint="GetWindowLong", CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
private static extern IntPtr GetWindowLong32(HandleRef hWnd, int nIndex);

[DllImport("user32.dll", EntryPoint="GetWindowLongPtr", CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
private static extern IntPtr GetWindowLongPtr64(HandleRef hWnd, int nIndex);
