The previous version was written to work on Win98+, and used the
rather gnarly ShellTree class. Since we no longer support Win98,
we can now use CShellManager::BrowseForFolder(), which does exactly
what we want without all the ugly code (and it looks nicer, and it
integrates better with the rest of the system).
We can also get rid of NewFolderDialog, which only existed to allow
the user to create a folder when trudging through ShellTree.
This required "upgrading" the main app object from CWinApp to
CWinAppEx, but that appears to be benign. Tested on WinXP and it
all seems fine.
CiderPress and MDC now compile, and execute far enough to open
their respective "about" boxes, but I doubt they'll do much
more than that.
* Switch from MBCS to UNICODE APIs
Microsoft switched to UTF-16 (by way of UCS-2) a long time ago,
and the support for MBCS seems to be getting phased out. So it's
time to switch to wide strings.
This is a bit awkward for CiderPress because it works with disk
and file archives with 8-bit filenames, and I want NufxLib and
DiskImgLib to continue to work on Linux (which has largely taken
the UTF-8 approach to Unicode). The libraries will continue to
work with 8-bit filenames, with CiderPress/MDC doing the
conversion at the appropriate point.
There were a couple of places where strings from a structure
handed back by one of the libraries were used directly in the UI,
or vice-versa, which is a problem because we have nowhere to
store the result of the conversion. These currently have fixed
place-holder "xyzzy" strings.
All UI strings are now wide.
Various format strings now use "%ls" and "%hs" to explicitly
specify wide and narrow. This doesn't play well with gcc, so
only the Windows-specific parts use those.
* Various updates to vcxproj files
The project-file conversion had some cruft that is now largely
gone. The build now has a common output directory for the EXEs
and libraries, avoiding the old post-build copy steps.
* Added zlib 1.2.8 and nufxlib 2.2.2 source snapshots
The old "prebuilts" directory is now gone. The libraries are now
built as part of building the apps.
I added a minimal set of files for zlib, and a full set for nufxlib.
The Linux-specific nufxlib goodies are included for the benefit of
the Linux utilities, which are currently broken (don't build).
* Replace symbols used for include guards
Symbols with a leading "__" are reserved.
