ManagedWinapi 0.3

A collection of .NET components that wrap PInvoke calls to access 
native API by managed code.

For documentation for these functions, look at ManagedWinapi.chm in the
binary release or generate it with Sandcastle Help File Builder available
from http://codeplex.com/SHFB from the source release.

ManagedWinapi Tools 0.3

Started as a collection of ManagedWinapi samples, the Managed Winapi tools evolved into a toolbox of lots of small but useful tools that solve their specific task well. They can still be used as reference for how to use ManagedWinapi, but their functionality may make it hard to find the relevant code parts quickly.

See the website for a list of tools and descriptions.

Changelog

+++ 2008-06-14 Released Version 0.3 +++


- Added AccessibleEventListener ProcessId and ThreadId members to limit 
  events to process or thread. [bbauer]
- Set default event for ClipboardNotifier, Crosshair and Hotkey,
  Add properties Location and Size and methods IsValid and SendClose to SystemWindow.
  [suggested by Frank Koch]
- Add functionality to low-level keyboard hook for translating low-level
  events to typed keys.
- Added several new classes:
  * Compute several kinds of machine IDs from C#
  * Shutdown the system
  * Set the system time
  * Get list of codepoints supported by a font
- Winternal Explorer: 
  * added window-highlighting while dragging crosshair
  * Add checkbox to disable heuristics when determining control from point

  * reduce flickering when crosshair is dragged
  * Fix a crash when calling TreeNodeData.Equals with an instance of a different 
    subclass as its parameter
  * Fix refresh of tree when releasing crosshair
  * Fix PossibleParents so that windows that are children of a window of a different 
    process (most prominent example: screensaver preview in control panel) can be
    found in tree.
- bug fixes:
  * Fix a problem with applications that return invalid accessible children.
    [submitted by Karl Gyllstrom <karl at cs dot unc dot edu>]
  * Use the managed Control#Capture property instead of calling the SetCapture
    PInvoke method.
  * Fix unsetting of modifier keys in LockKeyResetter
  * Set proper scancode for injected keyboard events
    (some applications, like MS-DOS based ones, need them).
- Use Sandcastle Help File Builder instead of NDoc for the API documentation
