Re: Newbie impressions ... am I right?
Because the developers do not use the forum to track tasks and bugs, they use Jira. You posting a problem here will not bring it to their attention unless someone else in the community goes to the trouble of opening a ticket for you. The devs as a whole are dealing with a lot of issues already, goin...

Re: Work-in-progress 0.4.4 changelog
If you look at previous release pages, you'll notice that all of them are locked by default. Hence my surprise it was editable in the first place.

Re: Work-in-progress 0.4.4 changelog
Do not attempt to make that sort of change unilaterally to those pages, those serve as effectively official records of the releases. I'm actually surprised Amine hadn't locked that one down yet, every previous release after it went out those wiki pages get protected.

Re: VMware ESXi 5.5, doesn't load desktop
We would need a debug log to be able to diagnose the issue.

Re: Work-in-progress 0.4.4 changelog
Victor doesn't do the changelogs and I no longer do them, Amine handles that portion of the release process now.

Re: 0.4.4 has arrived
An explicit decision was made late in the 0.3.x series that all future changelogs would be just a list of Jira issues resolved. This way the process is almost completely automated so that there is no dependency on any person finding time to go through all commits. It also served to act as an inducem...

Re: Using Reactos App Store from Windows
We don't have a tos for the app manager. It's also technically not an app store or app manager in the conventional sense. It's a download manager, nothing more.

Re: C Coding Basics
Still not quite right. What Aleksey did was a fairly subtle piece of pointer arithmetic that I'm personally ambivalent about since it is not obvious at all what it does unless you actually think about it and know in detail things like operator precedence and whatnot. It is clever though, and can ser...

Re: C Coding Basics
It is actually not incrementing the value. Order of operation precedence applies here.
As an addendum, I will explain it tomorrow if no one comes up with an answer, but I'd prefer to give others a chance to exercise their brains a bit first.

sdk/lib/rtl/heap.c:2020 FreeListsInUseUlong = *FreeListsInUse++ & ~((1 << ((ULONG)Index & 0x1f)) - 1); An "optimization" by Aleksey Bragin wherein he uses pointer and bit twiddling magic in order to mask out all entries in a list that are smaller than a requested size. Extremely cl...

Re: Appcache.c
That snippet as a single line of code might actually be breaking our coding guidelines. It's the equivalent of the following. if(Reason) *Reason = 0; It's two separate operations, an if check to see if Reason is non-zero (it's fairly common to omit the == 0 part of these checks in C/C++, especially ...

Re: r73619
Maybe time to drop VS2010 from the list of supported compilers.
