1
- == 1.4.5 - 24-Aug-2009
2
- * Reverted the change in 1.4.4. We need unsigned longs in a few cases.
3
- Consequently, you should upgrade windows-pr to 1.0.8 or later because
4
- some return values were set to -1 instead of 0xFFFFFFFF as they are now.
5
- * Updated one test to validate return value from failed function.
6
-
7
- == 1.4.4 - 18-Aug-2009
8
- * Fixed a bug where functions that returned a long return type were unsigned
9
- instead of signed.
10
- * The Rakefile has been refactored somewhat, including the removal of FFI
11
- related tasks. Those are now in a separate branch in the repository.
12
- * The test-unit library is now a development dependency instead of a runtime
13
- dependency.
14
-
15
- == 1.4.3 - 23-Jun-2009
16
- * Bug fix for mingw.
17
- * License now set to Artistic 2.0.
18
-
19
- == 1.4.2 - 31-May-2009
20
- * Updated the internal StringError() function to better handle the possibility
21
- of the English .mui file not being found. Thanks go to Michel Demazure for
22
- the spot.
23
-
24
- == 1.4.1 - 29-May-2009
25
- * Callback handling improvements.
26
- * Updated the gemspec description.
27
-
28
- == 1.4.0 - 19-Feb-2009
29
- * Now compatible with Ruby 1.9.x.
30
- * In what will go down as, "It seemed like a good idea at the time", I have
31
- removed the feature where W (wide) character functions were used first if
32
- your $KCODE environment variable was set to "UTF8". It caused too many
33
- headaches in practice, especially amongst Rails users. You must now always
34
- explicitly specify 'W' in the constructor if that's what you want.
35
- * Fixed RF bug #23944 - bad error message for MSVCRT functions that failed
36
- to load properly.
37
-
38
- == 1.3.0 - 1-Jan-2009
39
- * Fixed RubyForge bug #23395, which was caused by inadvertently modifying
40
- a variable within a loop. This caused callbacks to fail in certain
41
- situations.
42
- * Added the Win32::API::LoadLibraryError and Win32::API::PrototypeError classes
43
- to provide more fine grained handling of possible error conditions in the
44
- constructor. These are both subclasses of Win32::API::Error.
45
- * Removed the Win32::API::CallbackError class.
46
- * Changed the upper limit on prototypes from 16 to 20. It turns out that
47
- there are actually Windows functions with more than 16 prototypes.
48
- * Refactored a high iteration test so that it counts as only one test
49
- instead of 1000.
50
-
51
- == 1.2.2 - 27-Nov-2008
52
- * Fixed bug in the error message for illegal prototypes and illegal return
53
- types where the character in question would come out as empty or garbage.
54
- * Passing a bad return type to Win32::API::Callback now raises an error.
55
- * Updated the error message for illegal return types to say, "Illegal return
56
- type" instead of "Illegal prototype" as it did previously.
57
- * The error message for a bad function name passed to Win32::API.new now
58
- matches JRuby's FFI error message.
59
- * Improved the handling of msvcrt functions with regards to skipping 'A'
60
- and 'W' checks. Previously it was checking against the literal string
61
- 'msvcrt'. Now it checks against any string that starts with 'msvcr'.
62
- * Added test-unit 2.x as a prerequisite.
63
- * Added tests for the Win32::API::Callback#address method.
64
- * Added tests to all Win32::API classes that explicitly check error messages.
65
-
66
- == 1.2.1 - 14-Nov-2008
67
- * Fixed and updated callback handling.
68
- * Fixed wide string return handling for pointers and strings.
69
- * Added the Win32::API::Callback#address instance method.
70
- * All errors are now in English instead of your native language, because
71
- that's what Ruby itself does.
72
-
73
- == 1.2.0 - 22-Jul-2008
74
- * Added support for the 'S' (string) prototype and return type. It can be
75
- used instead of 'P' (pointer) for const char*.
76
- * Some internal refactoring. The attempts to load ANSI and/or Wide character
77
- versions of functions are skipped for MSVCRT functions, since they do not
78
- exist. This eliminates some unnecessary LoadLibrary() calls.
79
- * Added a couple of gem building Rake tasks.
80
- * Added a few more tests.
81
-
82
- == 1.1.0 - 12-Jun-2008
83
- * Added the Windows::API::Function class. This is a subclass of Win32::API
84
- meant only for use with raw function pointers.
85
- * Some documentation updates in the source and README files.
86
-
87
- == 1.0.6 - 18-Apr-2008
88
- * Added the effective_function_name method. This allows you to see what the
89
- actual function name is that was defined, e.g. GetUserNameA vs GetUserNameW.
90
- * Replaced an instance of _tcscmp with strcmp. The case in question was always
91
- going to be ASCII.
92
- * Cleaned up some -W3 warnings.
93
- * Added the build_manifest task to the Rakefile, which is automatically run if
94
- you're using a version of Ruby built with VC++ 8 or later. This builds a
95
- ruby.exe.manifest file (if it doesn't already exist).
96
-
97
- == 1.0.5 - 20-Nov-2007
98
- * The API.new method now defaults to "W" (wide character functions) before "A"
99
- (ANSI functions) if the $KCODE global variable is set to 'u' (UTF8).
100
- * Minor improvements to the Rakefile.
101
-
102
- == 1.0.4 - 26-Oct-2007
103
- * Fixed a bug where methods that returned pointers ('P') could choke if the
104
- resulting pointer was 0 or NULL. In this case, nil is now returned instead.
105
- * Tweak to the extconf.rb file that helps the gem build it from source
106
- properly.
107
-
108
- == 1.0.3 - 28-Sep-2007
109
- * Fixed a subtle but dangerous copy-on-write bug in the API#call method.
110
-
111
- == 1.0.2 - 28-Sep-2007
112
- * Fixed a bug in an internal struct member that was causing segfaults. Thanks
113
- go to Lars Olsson for the spot.
114
- * Fixed the 'install' task in the Rakefile. This only affected native builds,
115
- not the prebuilt binary.
116
- * Added a few more tests.
117
-
118
- == 1.0.1 - 27-Sep-2007
119

53
- = Developer's Notes
54
- The current Win32API library that ships with the standard library has been
55
- slated for removal from Ruby 2.0 and it will not receive any updates in the
56
- Ruby 1.8.x branch. I have far too many libraries invested in it to let it
57
- die at this point.
58
-
59
- In addition, the current Win32API library was written in the bad old Ruby
60
- 1.6.x days, which means it doesn't use the newer allocation framework.
61
- There were several other refactorings that I felt it needed to more closely
62
- match how it was actually being used in practice.
63
-
64
- The first order of business was changing the order of the arguments. By
65
- moving the DLL name from first to last, I was able to provide reasonable
66
- default arguments for the prototype, return type and the DLL. Only the
67
- function name is required now.
68
-
69
- There was a laundry list of other refactorings that were needed: sensical
70
- instance variable names with proper accessors, removing support for lower
71
- case prototype and return value characters that no one used in practice,
72
- better naming conventions, the addition of RDoc ready comments and,
73
- especially, callback and raw function pointer support.
74
-
75
- Most importantly, we can now add, modify and fix any features that we feel
76
- best benefit our end users.
77
-
78
- = Documentation

- The source file contains inline RDoc documentation. If you installed
80
- this file as a gem, then you have the docs.

82
- = Warranty
83
- This package is provided "as is" and without any express or
84
- implied warranties, including, without limitation, the implied
85
- warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.
86

51
+ = Developer's Notes
52
+ The current Win32API library that ships with the standard library has been
53
+ slated for removal from Ruby 2.0 and it will not receive any updates in the
54
+ Ruby 1.8.x branch. I have far too many libraries invested in it to let it
55
+ die at this point.
56
+
57
+ In addition, the current Win32API library was written in the bad old Ruby
58
+ 1.6.x days, which means it doesn't use the newer allocation framework.
59
+ There were several other refactorings that I felt it needed to more closely
60
+ match how it was actually being used in practice.
61
+
62
+ The first order of business was changing the order of the arguments. By
63
+ moving the DLL name from first to last, I was able to provide reasonable
64
+ default arguments for the prototype, return type and the DLL. Only the
65
+ function name is required now.
66
+
67
+ There was a laundry list of other refactorings that were needed: sensical
68
+ instance variable names with proper accessors, removing support for lower
69
+ case prototype and return value characters that no one used in practice,
70
+ better naming conventions, the addition of RDoc ready comments and,
71
+ especially, callback and raw function pointer support.
72
+
73
+ Most importantly, we can now add, modify and fix any features that we feel
74
+ best benefit our end users.
