Make sure the user has "admin" privileges before checking for updates, because it's kind of pointless to download the update if you won't be able install it anyway. This is especially important for Windows XP, where we don't have UAC. Note that UAC implies "admin" privileges, because the installer process will be elevated as needed - even if the current user is *not* an administrator.

Moved all sound effects into Qt-style resources. Sound files can be played back directly from program memory by passing a pointer to the WAVE data into PlaySound as the first argument (and using the SND_MEMORY flag), it's just not documented very well.

Refactored finalization code, so each "Global..." file can have its own finalization function.

Improved processing dialog + setup a proper "big" window icon for application windows (improves the look on the taskbar in Windows 7+)

Make sure the TEMP path is *not* replaced when running the web-update tool, as this will prevent the updater from working correctly.

More improvements to Splash Screen and the working banner.

Reorganized global functions: The file "Global.h" was split into multiple file in order to reduce the dependencies and to make things a bit more logic.

Improved compatibility mode detection, taking into account Windows 8.1.

Improved Windows version detection code.

26d186cdf8
Fix detection of Windows 8.1: Starting with Windows 8.1, the GetVersion(Ex) API has been broken and will now pretend to be Windows 8.0. Since GetVersion(Ex) can no longer be relied on, we will use VerifyVersionInfo() from now on, in the hope that they won't break this one too.
2013-10-19 16:02:22 +02:00

Use the THROW macro instead of plain "throw" in the complete project.

Improved tool extraction code in InitializationThread. Also implemented better exception handling.
2013-10-18 20:49:22 +02:00
c8242b494c
Improved lamexp_rand_str() function. Also this function now returns shorter strings (by default), which still should be enough to avoid name clashes.
2013-10-09 16:09:20 +02:00
24217c3b71
More code refactoring: Moved most of the Win32 API dependencies into wrapper functions in Global.cpp, which greatly reduces platform-specific includes.
2013-10-07 00:01:15 +02:00
7602317652
Some code-clean up. Removed "Windows.h" include from "Global.h", because most source files won't need the Win32 API stuff. Also got rid of some Windows 2000 compatibility cruft.

Ignore case when sorting file names.
2013-08-23 19:16:40 +02:00

Implemented "natural ordering" for sorting the input files. Code is based on the strnatcmp() by Martin Pool, released under the "zlib" license.
2013-08-23 00:19:00 +02:00

Now using a separate version/build number for the configuration, so INI settings don't get invalidated with each build.
2013-05-02 23:00:26 +02:00

Now using rand_s() to generate random numbers, which doesn't need a seed. Falling back to qsrand() + qrand() on platforms that don't support rand_s().
2012-10-13 12:36:41 +02:00

Slightly improved seeding of the PRNG (again).

Improved lamexp_get_os_version() function.

Small optimization of known_folder() function. Will now return a const reference.

Some refactoring of the macros. Use the "do {...} while(0)" template where it makes sense.
2012-07-29 19:13:58 +02:00

Extinguished some remaining uses of argv[] or QApplication::arguments().
2012-06-23 18:18:57 +02:00
30bc239cd8
Now using our own command-line parser, based on GetCommandLineW() + CommandLineToArgvW , instead of using QApplication::arguments(). This is less portable, but Qt's internal command-line parser has some rather strange behavior with processing certain characters. As a result, with Qt's command-line parser, some path names passed to LameXP got screwed up! Specifically "C:\Some Path\''Foo''.mp3" got mangled to "C:\Some Path''Foo''.mp3", i.e. the Backslash disappeared! Should be fixed now.

Some more Wine workarounds: Disable x64 binaries, as it seems they fail to load under Wine (tested with Wine 1.4 under Ubuntu 12.04 x64).
2012-04-05 13:40:52 +02:00

Use the 'FindExInfoBasic' information level on supported OS (Windows 7 and later). Should further speed-up things.

Better handling of system shutdown. Now using the Qt event system to broadcast a special event when the system is going to shutdown (i.e. WM_QUERYENDSESSION or WM_ENDSESSION). This gives each top-level widget the chance to react to the system shutdown *before* we return from the message handler. Doing any clean-up after returning from the message handler is impossible, because Windows will kill the process immediately after WM_ENDSESSION has been processed. Note that Windows XP (and earlier) will NOT send WM_QUERYENDSESSION or WM_ENDSESSION to processes that have a console attached! Therefore, if we have a debug console attached, we cannot do anything on these systems. Our process will be killed without any notification...
...
Also improved LameXP's IPC mechanism: There now are several slots for IPC-commands in the shared memory area ("queue support"). This way, the sender can post several commands in sequence without getting blocked. The receiver can process those at a later time.
2011-12-29 14:42:20 +01:00
9a9d2e6819
Explicitly handle WM_QUERYENDSESSION and WM_ENDSESSION messages to make sure LameXP won't block Windows from shutting down.
