Where can I find a list of replacements for #Constants?
Surely, somebody has one somewhere.
Google is unable to find it.

You can look in previous versions of PureBasic if you are referring to PureBasic constants.

What deprecated nstant would you like to know? If it's an API constant then it makes sense to look to API sources.

search for deprecated.

Thanks to both of you!

I discovered one of the constants were from the PureColor library, which is no big deal.

However the constants that are troublesome are from the API calls: #GWL_STYLE

SetWindowLong_(WindowID(0), #GWL_STYLE, GetWindowLong_(WindowID(0), #GWL_STYLE)|#WS_CLIPCHILDREN)

Where can I find the API constants?

Thanks!

These constants are part of the windows api and can be found at MSDN of Windows (Google search)
The same applies to Linux (gtk, gdk, etc) and macOS (cocoa, objective-c).

Otherwise the description would take up several gigabytes and is therefore too extensive.

You could also use PureBasic's IDE tool 'Structure Viewer' to see if it is one of the many predefined constants.

You could do the same thing by just debugging the code
@:Edit: corrected and replaced 'Variable Viewer' with 'Structue Viewer'. Thanks mk-soft. Believe it or not I checked the tool's name before I posted but still wrote the wrong term when I posted for some reason.

Thanks for all your help, gang!
