 | TGadgetWindow - changes in two functions:

virtual uin GetFlatStyle();
New enumerator TFlatStyle has defined:
NonFlatNormal, - Non flat
FlatStandard, -
Standard Win95 look
FlatGrayButtons, - Not implemented jet
FlatHotText, -
Hot text
FlatSingleDiv, - Single grip
divider

FlatStandard - have to be present always
FlatHotText, FlatSingleDiv, FlatGrayButtons can be or`ed.
Example:
EnableFlatStyle() -> to automatically select proper style
EnableFlatStyle(TGadgetWindow::FlatHotText) -> Not flat only Hot
Buttons

-> Flat with Hot Buttons |

 | TSystemTime Default Constructor now only memset() data. |
 | BUG BUG in TListWindow - Bug in RedrawItems |
 | TUIFace Added ( actually finished) support for Text. In Borland version was implemented
only bitmap drawing. |
 | TModule - New functionality: Now exist list loaded DLLs, added parameter in
TModule constructor to add DLL into list or not.
New function:
static TModule* FindResModule(TResId id, LPCTSTR type); -
Searches for resource in all loaded and registered modules, and return module wich contain
specified resource.
All resource-load functions from TModule if failed resource loading uses FindResModule()
to find resource in other
module. |
 | TTime Added support TSystemTime and TFileTime. |
 | TDate - default format dd/mm/yyyy, there are several additions, but them not feezed now,
and may be changed. |
 | New macros DECLARE_SIGNATURE0, DECLARE_SIGNATURE1 - DECLARE_SIGNATURE12 |
 | wincls.h Changes in template TResource<T, const char*
type> now it declaration: TResource<T, long type>
Why? Because new ANSI C++ standard forbid use char* because it isn't constant. And VC 6.0
not support char*.
Actually all windows resources usually just integer numbers. |
 | TModule* Module Global name Module was changed for VC compilation
to gModule. And this major change. VC 6.0 has problem with ::Module
as default argument in function, optimal solution I think renaming ::Module
to gMidule.
As defined in module.h:
#if defined(BI_COMP_BORLANDC) &&
!defined(BI_NEW_GMODULE)
extern TModule* Module;
# define gModule ::Module
#else
extern TModule* gModule;
#endif
You don't need change ::Module to gModule if
you uses Borland, but for VC you must. You can use gModule in all cases,
and compile the same code with BC++ and VC++. |
