deleteItem ( list, position ) reports false failure

Louis Puster — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 20:45:05 -0000

When a sorted list contains only one item, deleteItem(list, 1) does delete the item, but returns 0 (failure).

w32forms include missing

Matt Lewis — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 12:54:01 -0000

w32forms should include win32lib.ew. In eu4, missing this can cause issues when users have globals that have the same name as a win32lib global, resulting in unresolved symbols in w32forms (other files in win32lib may have this same problem).

Latest Win32Lib+IDE Not Declaring a Button

Derek Parnell — Wed, 12 Sep 2007 22:26:30 -0000

I've got a prj file that runs fine with IDE 0.19.1 and Win32Lib 0.60.6, but the IDE 1.0.0 and Win32Lib 0.70.1 combo does not declare a button variable.

using a font with Printer

Derek Parnell — Wed, 12 Sep 2007 22:25:04 -0000

If a font is not entered printing is in a default font and is OK but not when entering a font. The output uses HUGE characters.

Error with setBackColor / drawRectangle

Anonymous — Sun, 04 Mar 2001 01:57:12 -0000

I have found a problem in win32lib 0.55.1, the
attached code will cause an error.
This did not happen with win32lib 0.53.

create( Window) style bug

Anonymous — Fri, 26 Jan 2001 21:59:32 -0000

This is an apparent bug in the 0.54 "Bleeding Edge" version.

The follow code:
--------------------------------------------------------
include Win32Lib.ew
atom wdwStyle
wdwStyle = or_all( { WS_OVERLAPPED, WS_CAPTION,
WS_SYSMENU, WS_THICKFRAME } )
constant Window1 = create( Window, "MyWin", 0,
Default, Default, 300, 150, wdwStyle)
WinMain( Window1, Normal)
--------------------------------------------------------
does not create a window without a Maximize and Minimize button, as expected; it is a "regular" window. Confirmed that this code does remove those two controls under version 0.50.

Cool product, though!

isVisible to display several Combobox's that
tab stop does not work.....

Under any Version of win32lib....
