Access an API which is undefined in PB

rsts · Post by **rsts** » Fri May 23, 2008 1:48 pm

I'm looking for a way to restore tray icons which have vanished due to an explorer problem and happened on this thread
http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtopic.php?t=31038
which would seem to do the job except for maw's comment regarding the need to use ChangeWindowMessageFilter for admin mode under Vista.

PB doesn't recognize ChangeWindowMessageFilter.

I seem to remember reading a post on accessing these undefined api's but can't seem to locate it now. Can someone point me in the right direction?

cheers

I have no Vista, but i think you can only load the user32.dll and call the function

That ought to get me started. Many thanks to both of you.

@userofpure - how did you come to find that? I was searching for undefined and api or unreferenced and api. I can't figure out what you used unless you happened to remember that post

cheers
