When calling WinApi functions from your application (or any other external function) you might want to be sure that the function
exists on the system the application is running.

Use this WIKI tip to check at runtime if a specific function is present before calling it and optionally execute alternative actions:

Check existence of dll functions at runtime

Now TD 7.0 is here, new x64 specific API's can be used.
Both on x86 and x64 TD versions, these new external function datatypes are available:

Code: Select all

Number: LONGLONG
Number: ULONGLONG
Receive Number: LPLONGLONG
Receive Number: LPULONGLONG

But we have to be aware that TD 7.0 (x64) requires now the correct datatype declarations to work correctly.
Based on the datatype and TD bitness, TD will use 32bit or 64bit sizes.

Some declarations in the WinApi32 archive do have incorrect assigned datatypes . They will work on 32 bit TD versions and have been working for years.
But when porting to TD x64, these API functions will not work anymore and will fail. Result can be crashes or incorrect values passed or received.

Mainly the rule is:
The declaration should exactly match the description on MSDN.
When the API function complies to the exact datatype, the function will work both on x86 and x64.

To keep the WinApi archive usable on x86 and x64, it would be nice to change incorrect declarations to the correct types.
Also to add x64 specific functions.

A new library is added to the archive:
WinApi32_Functions_x64.apl

It contains specific x64 API declarations, which can only be used by TD x64 versions.
(it is saved in TD 7.0 text format)

When you find in your projects issues with existing API functions on x64 and have the correct declarations tested, please post the changes here or send it by email.
Also new API declarations are welcome.


To start, here is now a new version, v1.10.
It contains already some changes and additions.

Code: Select all

VERSION 1.10
    - NEW: WinApi32_Functions_x64.apl, API's specially for x64 TD versions:
      Added USER32.DLL    -> GetWindowLongPtrA, GetWindowLongPtrW, SetWindowLongPtrA, SetWindowLongPtrW
               -> SetClassLongPtrA, SetClassLongPtrW, GetClassLongPtrA, GetClassLongPtrW
      Added SHLWAPI.DLL    -> StrFormatByteSize64A, StrFormatByteSizeW
    - The following functions have been changed to be compatible with x64:
      GetProcAddress, GetModuleHandleA, GetModuleHandleW, LoadLibraryExA, FreeLibrary, RegCloseKey, RegFlushKey
      GetThreadLocale, BeginPaint, EnumWindows, EnumThreadWindows, EnumChildWindows, GetWindow, CallWindowProcW
      CallWindowProcA, DefWindowProcA, DefWindowProcW, DefDlgProcA, DefDlgProcW, DispatchMessageA, DispatchMessageW
      GetClassInfoA, GetClassInfoW, LoadStringW, LoadIconA, LoadCursorA, LoadCursorW, LoadCursorFromFileW
      LoadCursorFromFileA, PostThreadMessageW, PostThreadMessageA, SendMessageA, SendMessageW
      SetWindowsHookExA, SetWindowsHookExW

Very good work!
Thx a lot

P.S.: nice to have seen you at the devcon!

I had some trouble with GetDeviceCaps. Sometimes the return value was correct, sometimes not (depending on the value of parameter 1). After changing DWORD -> HANDLE everything works now.

I have now migrated to x64. The WinApi32 Functions x64.apl helped a lot. The ShellExecuteW/ShellExecuteExW functions were missing. Following the instructions in Dave's WIKI article, I added two new parameters (4 bytes padding).
