This is a massive release with tons of additions, fixes and, unfortunately, breaking changes. I try to avoid them, but when stuff breaks and requires fixing, well, code has to change. PLEASE check your dependencies and assumptions with listed changes.

New Assemblies

  • Vanara.PInvoke.ComDlg32
  • Vanara.PInvoke.IScsiDsc
  • Vanara.PInvoke.Msi
  • Vanara.PInvoke.NewDev
  • Vanara.PInvoke.OleDlg
  • Vanara.PInvoke.Rpc
  • Vanara.PInvoke.SHCore (#193)
  • Vanara.PInvoke.SetupAPI
  • Vanara.PInvoke.WTSApi32
  • Vanara.PInvoke.WsmSvc (#194)

BREAKING CHANGES

  • Changed AppendMenu param from UIntPtr to IntPtr for easier conversion from HMENU and int command ids. Change MENUINFO.dwMenuData to IntPtr for easier conversions.
  • Moved IObjectWithSite from Shell32 to Ole32
  • Moved RPC enums from Ole32 to Rpc assembly and static class.
  • Revamped SendMessage overloads to reduce accidential use of wrong overload. Most uses still work except passing a class in as lParam.
  • Changed IDropTarget methods to use MouseButtonState param value instead of uint. Fixed dependencies.
  • Changed ThrowLastErrorIfInvalid to a generic method to return the same type as the delegate
  • Changed all IContextMenu variants to have PreserveSig model for implementation
  • Changed allocated string fields in ComDlg32 to StrPtrAuto rather than String.
  • Cleaned and extended Vanara.Security to support ActiveDirectoryExtension on all platforms
  • Enhanced ShellContextMenu further to support non-WinForms platforms better. (#178)
  • Extended IntPtr.Write(object value...) method to handle almost all cases of object types (arrays, lists, etc.)
  • Extended and improved object GetValue(this REG_VALUE_TYPE value) method
  • Made serious changes to IOleCommandTarget. It was very broken (#188). Added other missing stuff from docobj.h.
  • Moved DEVICE_SCALE_FACTOR from Shell32 to Shared
  • Moved HOTKEYF from ComCtrl32 to User32 to align with WM_GETHOTKEY location
  • Moved IOleCommand declaration to Ole Ole32 from Shell32
  • Moved MouseButtonState from User32 to Shared assembly and up to PInvoke namespace. Fixed dependencies.
  • Moved OLE types CY, DECIMAL and DATE up to Shared assembly.
  • Moved PDCAP enum from PowrProf to Shared and added a few other enums and structure to Shared.Wdm.cs from that header file.

Fixes

  • Fixed structures that could not load due to marshal attribute bugs
  • Derived ShellContextMenu from IDisposable so that it correctly disposes the underlying IContextMenu instance. #178
  • Fix misspelled path of file Winternl.cs (#187)
  • Fixed Int32/UInt32 mismatch on OFN
  • Fixed ShellContextMenu build error due to change to AppendMenu
  • Fixed alignment issue with MIB_UDPROW_OWNER_MODULE (#189)
  • Fixed bug in GetObject overloads
  • Fixed bug in LookupAccountSid2 where assigned return values incorrectly.
  • Fixed declaration of IEnumAssocHandlers.Next
  • Fixed methods in Shell32 (SHGetFolderLocation, SHGetFolderPath, SHGetFolderPathAndSubDir) that should use CSIDL enum but didn't. Fixed dependencies.
  • Fixed packing directive on MIB_UDP6ROW_OWNER_MODULE and MIB_UDPROW_OWNER_MODULE per issue #189
  • Removed Security.PermissionSetAttribute from all classes, properties and methods. It is now marked Obsolete.
  • Removed exception on index == 0 from IndirectResource ctor
  • Removed incorrect FlagsAttribute from WindowMessage enum and removed duplicate, unused WM_HSHELL values
  • Updated Windows.Shell project to support forms

Additions

  • Abstracted out read-only methods from SafeAllocatedMemoryHandle into SafeAllocatedMemoryHandleBase

  • Added BROADCAST_QUERY_DENY return value.
  • Added BasicMessageWindow class as a simple alternative to NativeWindow and MessageWindow

  • Added GetVolumePathNamesForVolumeName overload
  • Added HWND.HWND_MESSAGE value
  • Added IArrayStruct interface to identify two-field structures where the first field is an UInt32 and the second is a pointer to an array of structures along with supporting marshaler and extension method.
  • Added IArrayStruct inheritance for DRT_DATA
  • Added IDC_ cursor resource id constants
  • Added IDI_* values for static icons and overloaded LoadIcon function to accept a ResourceId param.
  • Added ISafeMemoryHandle.GetBytes method that was already implemented all implemented classes
