win32utils devel - Mar 2008 - Fwd: CreateProcess function prototype

Hm, I think he''s write about params 3 and 4. Do we have to resort to
the address for the ENV data structure? I can''t remember now.

Regards,

Dan

Dan,

Also, the function prototype for CreateProcess on line 65 of
windows\process.rb is incorrect. It should be:

      API.new(''CreateProcess'', ''PPPPLLLPPP'',
''B'')

And, it might even be better to be:

      API.new(''CreateProcess'', ''PPPPLLPPPP'',
''B'')

Thanks,

Steve

I remember ENV is not just a pointer but a pointer of pointer.
So it should be an address.

Yes, that''s right.

It looks like I never caught the mistake in params 3 and 4 because I
mistyped the hash keys in the Process.create method with regards to
process_inherit and thread_inherit, so they were never actually being
used. There were a couple of mistakes there, actually.

Anyway, I''ll fix win32-process and windows-pr tonight.

Dan
