While functional, Katayama's show desktop button left much to be desired
in the realm of appearances. This commit brings improvements for it:
- When using the classic theme, the Show Desktop button now appears
more faithful to its Microsoft counterpart, emblazoned with an icon,
and encased in a border only when hovered or pressed.
- With a visual style applied, the button behaves in one of two ways:
- If present, the Show Desktop button now properly uses the relevant
information from the visual style, just like on Windows 7.
- Otherwise, the Show Desktop button uses an icon akin to when the
classic theme is used, but with the button background's appearance
repurposed from the taskbar toolbar buttons, which are guaranteed to
exist in any Windows XP or Vista visual style you can find out there.
ReactOS's own Lautus and Mizu visual styles will be updated in the
following commits to utilize these features, while Lunar and Modern visual
styles left untouched to display Show Desktop button with icon instead.
CORE-15369
Instead of messing with global variables and the like, we introduce two target properties:
- WITH_CXX_EXCEPTIONS: if you want to use C++ exceptions
- WITH_CXX_RTTI: if you need RTTI in your module
You can use the newly introduced set_target_cpp_properties function, with WITH_EXCEPTIONS and WITH_RTTI arguments
We also introduce two libraries :
- cpprt: for C++ runtime routines
- cppstl: for the C++ standard template library
NB: On GCC, this requires to create imported libraries with the related built-in libraries:libsupc++, limingwex, libstdc++
Finally, we manage the relevant flags with the ad-hoc generator expressions
So, if you don't need exceptions, nor RTTI, nor use any runtime at all: you simply have nothing else to do than add your C++ file to your module
Fix SHAppBarMessage (not perfect) by adapting wine code. See CORE-14439.
More work is required. Kept the original code for reference.
Example : SetWindowPos should be called via Post Message.
Code commit is to wake up other developers.
- Rewrite the taskbar settings and start menu settings property sheets.
- All settings in the taskbar settings property sheet can be loaded and saved properly except for the quick launch one which will be implemented later.
- Implement toggling lock, autohide and always on top. The rest will be implemented later.
