How to programmatically get the current track from Winamp?

Question

C++ / C#

Good afternoon. I want to write a program that would broadcast the current track from Winamp to Vk.
Actually how to get the data I need from Winamp? Without resorting to tricks with first saving to a file and then transferring it.

There are a number of other things you can do to query/control Winamp. For example, this C/C++ code fragment will get the title of the current song playing in Winamp. A simple explanation is that it retrieves Winamp's window title, removes the trailing ' - Winamp'.
code:
char this_title[2048],*p;
GetWindowText(hwndWinamp,this_title,sizeof(this_title));
p = this_title+strlen(this_title)-8;
while (p >= this_title)
{
if (!strnicmp(p,"- Winamp",8)) break;
p--;
}
if (p >= this_title) p--;
while (p >= this_title && *p == ' ') p--;
*++p=0;
