Hi all,

The Microwindows API tries to be compliant with the 
European ECMA APIW standard.  Currently, there is 
not support for all of this standard.  Is there any plan 
for completing every API in the APIW standard?  Or 
which parts of this standard would never be 
implemented?

Regards,

Ming-Lin Kao

Initially, I was going to support tyhe ECMA APIW
standard.  However, this standard is for the
16 bit windows api, not the 32 bit windows api.
The values of the SendMessage parameters are quite
different between 16 and 32 bit.  I feel that its
not very valuable to support the 16 bit API.

My plans for implementation are to include 100%
of the Win32 GDI api; (this is well on it's way,
although certain parts, like the 256 different ROP
codes, will never be completed, or it won't be
"Micro").  In addition, for built-in window mgr
support, I have been implementing portions
of the USER api (user32.dll).  The kernel32.dll
api will probably not be implemented, as it doesn't
really belong in a windowing system.

Regards,

Greg

What is the advantage and disadvantage of the microwindows?

 

I have been writing progs mostly for nano-X and haven't tried the
Microwindows api yet.

 

On my device I can't seem to get the Nano-X to work so I thought of using
Microwindows.

 

So what are the differences here ?

 

PS : when running mtest or any other m-Demo I see the windows and everything
but the screen flickers as if it's refreshing in a strange way. Why ?

The microwindows api is win32 compliant, which is its advantage.
The disadvantage is its not client/server capable, and not X11
or nano-X compliant.
