DisableProcessWindowsGhosting function

Is there a problem with this prototype in user32.f90? The MS documentation indicate that the function name includes an s after the word part "window", but this prototype does not. I'm getting a link error.

subroutine DisableProcessWindowGhosting () bind(C,name="DisableProcessWindowGhosting")
!DEC$ ATTRIBUTES STDCALL :: DisableProcessWindowGhosting
end subroutine DisableProcessWindowGhosting

Try:

Try:

Copy the interface from user32, paste into your PROGRAM/SUBROUTINE that calls it, add the 's', see if it compiles and links (then test to see if it runs as expected). I'd suggest not editing the user32 copy at this time. Rather create a module to contain the fixes. Example: user32_fixes.f90 this way the changes are documented and when installing updates, you can verify if fix made it into the distribution.

Yes thanks. I had already

Yes thanks. I had already done that. It works fine with the modification.

Given that it is a bind(c)

Given that it is a bind(c) interface it will be a new one added in PSXE 17.0 so it is more likely to have a problem than one that has been there years and picked over by lots of people. Some of these interfaces probably hardly ever get used IMO.

Sorry about that. Kevin,

Sorry about that. Kevin, please escalate this to the RTL folks.

Thank you for reporting this.

Thank you for reporting this. I notified Development to have this corrected in a future update/release.
