win32lib v0.57.4 released
Hi All,
for those that are interested, I've place version 0.57.4 on my website:
http://www.users.bigpond.com/ddparnell/euphoria/w32lv057.zip 675KB
If I don't hear of any bugs during the next week, I'll promote it to v0.58
and get RDS to place it on the contributions section as a stamped file.
The changes are:
-- Fixes --
- "by Matt Lewis". The Delete-All functions for ListView and TreeView now
work.
- "by Martin Stachon". Put back 'include compat01.ew'
- "by Irv Mullins". Now handles clicking into an "empty" treeview without
crashing.
- addItem() now works with empty text strings.
- "by Judith Evans and Martin Stachon". removeTVItem() now correctly resets
the 'has children' flag so that subsequent addTVItem() calls use the correct
graphics.
- "by Martin Stachon". No longer crashes when using getRect() on a closed
window.
- The demo program, 'generic.exw', now saves the text correctly.
- The setSelectedText() routine now works when the length of the selected
text is zero.
- "by Brian Broker". limitText() now works.
- "by Thomas Parslow". GDI resource leak using wPuts and queryFont removed.
- "by Brian Broker". getText() nows returns the newly
- "by Martin Stachon". replaceObject() was not handling tagged resources.
- "by Bernie Ryan". calling the Windows API "xGetScrollInfo" now works.
- addIcon() can now be called before any ListView, TreeView, ComboBoxEx, or
FlatToolBar has been created.
- The Destroy event is now triggered before the control is destroyed.
- The Destroy event, when triggered for the main window, no longer crashes.
-- Enhancements --
- The Win32LibVersion constant now has a 4th entry; the date of the version.
- The getControlInfo() function now supports a new info type -
CONTROLINFO_classinfo. This returns a sequence containing the data used by
the control when created - such as Name of control type and default
background color.
- setText() no longer generates a warning message for controls that do not
support setting the text.
- setText() now supports atoms, integers, formatting mask, as well as
straight text.
- MleText controls no longer have a Horizontal scroll bar. This means that
they are now automatically in word-wrap mode.
- The Mouse event now responds to Mouse Wheel movements.
- "by Guillermo Bonvehi". shellExecute can now use NULL for the 'verb'
parameter.
- shellExecute() can now supply the style flags as a sequence of individual
flag values.
- "by Thomas Parslow". The bitBlt routine can now handle the source and
destination being the same bitmap.
- getText() and setText() now work with MenuItems.
- Added Minimized and Maximized keywords that can be used in OpenWindow,
ShowWindow, and WinMain routines.
- The sendMessage(), w32Func() and w32Proc() routines can now take string
arguments. These are automatically converted to lzpstr 'C' data items for
you. The memory is acquired and released automatically.
- destroy() can now be used to remove a TabItem from a TabControl
- setFont() for RichEdit controls now allows you to specify that the change
affects the entire text or just the insertion point (the default).
- wPuts() can now specify a X,Y position to move to before displaying text.
- wPuts() can now accept numbers as the second parameter.
- When creating a StatusBar control, you can now specify the panels in the
statusbar.
- "by Brian Broker". addTabs() can now add tabstops to a list box.
- destroy() now works on all control types and releases child control
resoures as well.
- getOpenFileName() now supports selecting multiple files.
-- New Routines --
- There is a new routine makeMenu() which is a shorthand way of creating an
entire menu structure for a window.
- A new routine setSubFields() allows you to create sub-fields in the status
bar. setText(), getText() and setHint() now support these sub-fields.
- A new set of routines are available that implements user defined
properties for controls. These routines are defineUserProperty(),
setUserProperty(), resetUserProperty(), and getUserProperty().
- drawLines() routine allows a multiple disjoint line segments of varying
colors to be rendered in one call. This is faster than calling setPenColor()
and drawLine() multiple times.
- setTVText() used to change the text of a TreeView item.
- collapseItem() used to hide a TreeView item's children.
- toggleItem() used to hide or show a TreeView's children.
- setTVImages() used to change the TreeView item's images.
- getFocus() returns the id of the control that has focus.
- EzCreateFont() is now a global function.
- useLogicalResolution() can be used to control how font's are sized.
- assignFont() updates the font in a control's Device Context
- "by Brian Broker". insertText() and appendText().
- findItem() to locate an item in a List or Combo type of control.
- getLastMsg() returns the latest windows message.
- setLVAttr() is used to set special sorting requirements for ListView
controls, including user-defined routines.
-- Changes that might break some existing code --
- expandItem() only takes one parameter now. It no longer needs the id of
the TreeView control.
- When creating a TabItem, the new TabItem gets focus.
- SIZENESWPointer has been renamed to SizeNESWPointer to conform to the
naming convention of the other standard Pointer Shape names.
- uFindReplaceMsg has been renamed w32FindReplaceMsg to conform with the
naming convention used with other global constants.
- insertListViewItem() now returns a sequence {index, itemid}
- The application's default icon is now set to the same as Euphoria's.
- Removed obsolete Windows 3.1 identifiers.
- The struct_LVDISPINFO() routine was removed because it wasn't used
internally and has very little use to anyone.
