Well, to be more precise, the 255 char limit comes from the windows kernel, maybe for backward compatibility. :-) Quote from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filename: Although NTFS allows each path component (directory or filename) to be 255 characters long and paths up to about 32767 characters long,...

In our company we have some users creating nested folder structures with long path and filenames that can exceed the limit of 255 characters. These users complain that a doubleclick in windows explorer does not work. In some application's file open dialogs these files can not be selected, too. :( Af...

*curious*

How was this one made ?:

Or is this screenshot a fake ?

i am not "porting" my app(s), i try to find out where it stops working. :-) Reporting a bug makes only sense to me if i can provide as much information as possible so developers can spend their time fixing not finding a bug. ;-) I want to test, if simple VB6 apps run already in a current s...

I made a new simpler version to test the api calls in the CaptureScreen and CaptureWindow functions (See KB article number above in this thread). i saw that the "OleCreateBitmapIndirect" API might be missing, cause it doesn't return valid data (Picture handle = 0), so the calls in the free...

In GetMyScreen i use lots of API calls (GetDC , BitBlt, and so on...) to capture screenshots. See Microsoft knowledge base Q161299 for details. first step: API GlobalAddAtom => register hotkeys Print key / Alt+Print => prints desktop / current window shift + print / shift + alt + print => write to f...

today i installed rev. 22205 in a virtual machine in MS Virtual PC 2004. i wanted to test, if my own screenshot tool (GetMyScreen) works. i first installed the runtime files for vb6 and started the GetMyScreen installer, a self extracting rarfile. i called "c:\reactos\system32\msiexec GetMyScre...

Over the weekend i tried to install ReactOS an an MSI Hermes mini computer. The 160G Hard drive is divided as follows: 20G XPHome (NTFS), 20G OpenBSD, 20G FAT32, Rest NTFS. As with every OS i tried i marked the primary FAT32 partition as active, so the boot sector can be installed i n this partiitio...

Hallo,

lies mal hier:

http://www.reactos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1672

Die 15% sind Code, der nicht geprüft werden muss, wie z. B. das Build-System.

Soviel ich bislang gelesen hab, wird nach Anzahl Verzeichnissen gerechnet.

mmw

Hi, i plan to use reactos on a minipc2 (http://www.dt-research.com/html/body_dt166-pc_tc.html) to connect to a digital sat receiver (Topfield PVR 5500) via USB (2.0). The topfield software requires a special driver for usb (tfbulk.sys) to connect to the usb device. Is the usb stack in reactos stable...

I use binutils 20051122.

to be more precise:

Linspire 5.0.59 with CNR version of mingw32-3.4.2, mingw32-runtime-3.5.1 and mingw32-binutils-20040904, upgraded to more current version cause of the checks in mingw.cpp.

which paths do you mean?

(p.s. sorry for my bad english)

Seems i have to wait a bit for successful compile on my Linux laptop... Someone working on arp at the moment? :-) ********************************************************************** [CC] tools/pefixup.c tools/pefixup.c: In function `main': tools/pefixup.c:248: warning: implicit declaration of fun...

Hello, all of you, it took me a while to find the correct cpp file (mingw.cpp). In this file the binutilsversion is compared to versions strings like 20040902-20041008. My former binutils had a build date of 20040904 and was so marked as unsupported. I gor a fresh binutils from cvs that had a versio...
