2022-07-20Fix bug in and rename throw_nil, warn_nil.John Ankarström
In warn_nil, the return value was undefined on exception -- I think. While informative, the names throw_nil and warn_nil don't work very well in conditionals: if (warn_nil<f>(...)) g(); sounds like g should be called if f returns nil and a warning is issued. But it is actually the other way around; g is called if f is successful. if (prefer<f>(...)) g(); sounds less like that.
2022-07-19Check Windows API calls for errors more consistently.John Ankarström
Some of the checks are likely redundant, but the Windows API documentation rarely makes it clear WHICH errors may be returned (and under which circumstances) rather than simply WHETHER errors may be returned (under any circumstances, including those that do not apply in the given case).
2022-07-19Use static member function instead of friend function.John Ankarström
2022-07-19Use Prolog string buffer marks.John Ankarström
Speaking of unclear documentation, it is not obvious whether it is necessary for programs calling into Prolog to manually mark and release strings. I suppose that it should be, if the same logic that applies to terms apply to strings. On the other hand, the stack in which the strings are stored belongs to Prolog, and there is nothing that would prevent Prolog from cleaning up the strings when called at a later time. I am not sure. But better safe than sorry, I guess. The Mark class acts like the Frame class. The constructor and destructor are equivalent to the PL_STRINGS_MARK and PL_STRINGS_RELEASE macros. Unlike for 34c3280, I did not notice any differences in memory usage after this change. Perhaps that is because it has no effect; perhaps it is because Prolog's stack is very big.
2022-07-18Fix typo.John Ankarström
2022-07-17Make ListView hWnd public.John Ankarström
A getter offers encapsulation, but it is also less transparent in a sense. Thinking of ListView as a struct, it is natural to expose hWnd as a public member variable.
2022-07-17Update type names and variable prefixes.John Ankarström
2022-07-17Add const to pointers, update spacing.John Ankarström
It seems that "right-spaced" pointers are more widely used among C++ programmers.
2022-07-17Add const to places.John Ankarström
Note that I did NOT add const to non-pointer/non-reference arguments in function declarations (without a following definition), as they do not mean anything there.
2022-07-17Use SWI-Prolog's wide-character functions.John Ankarström
This avoids the use of TsmFromSz.
2022-07-16Formatting.John Ankarström
2022-07-16Rewrite TszFromSz as TsmFromSz.John Ankarström
I.e. using std::basic_string<TCHAR> instead of TCHAR *. This removes all unmanaged frees.
2022-07-16Add m_hWndParent to ListView.John Ankarström
This avoids g_hWnd.
2022-07-15Split defs.h into separate header files.John Ankarström
This is feasible now that the makedeps script exists to automatically manage build dependencies (see 6034fe2, d00f8b3).
2022-07-15Reimplement Pl with variadic templatesJohn Ankarström
This is a bit safer and about as complex.
2022-07-15Change declaration style.John Ankarström
2022-07-14Minor formal changes.John Ankarström
Height(DLVSIKEY) was incorrect. The argument to Height is supposed to be a boolean value, in this case false. It happened to work because DLVSIKEY is 0 (because Key is the 0th column in the data list view).
2022-07-14Initialize global variables in the right place.John Ankarström
The rules for what messages are sent at window creation -- and in which order -- are neither intuitive or clear. WM_CREATE can NOT be relied upon to initialize global state required by handlers of other messages (such as WM_GETMINMAXINFO, which seems to be sent before WM_CREATE). Thus, the better solution is to initialize everything using a CBT hook before the window procedure is even run. Because CBTProc creates (child): windows of its own, though, one must be careful to only run the initialization once, which is done by checking g_hWnd.
2022-07-11Improve ElvSort.John Ankarström
2022-07-11Refactor, adjust minimum window size.John Ankarström
2022-07-10Convert to C++.John Ankarström
I already hit upon some object-oriented programming patterns in *listview.c, so I felt that it would be natural to use this as an opportunity to learn C++.
