2022-07-20Fix ANSI compatibility.John Ankarström
It's not very useful, but it's a fun exercise.
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).

2022-07-18Add Unicode support to Win32Error.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
2022-07-17Name function arguments in headers.John Ankarström
This is obviously a lot less obtuse.
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.
2022-07-16Formatting.John Ankarström
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).
2022-07-15Change declaration style.John Ankarström
2022-07-14Code style.John Ankarström
2022-07-14Pass WM_DESTROY to ListView::WndProc.John Ankarström
On WM_DESTROY, the "this" property was removed before it could be retrieved and dereferenced, making it impossible for WM_DESTROY messages to be passed to the WndProc method.
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++.
