Re: [Mingw-users] Dialog ressource

[Gunnar D. <de...@da...>]

I have just encountered a bug that may be the same. windres adds the style 
flags WS_POPUP | WS_BORDER | WS_SYSMENU to all dialog boxes. This is wrong 
if the dialog box is to be used as a control in another dialog, such as 
when extending the open/save common dialogs.

The bug is in rcparse.y line 336 for DIALOG and line 357 and 380 for 
DIALOGEX resources.

For an example, download and compile 
http://www.danbbs.dk/degnbol/NIM/nim-013-src.zip (NIM is Notepad IMproved). 
The program requires mapi.h from Cygwin (why is mapi.h in Cygwin instead of 
in w32api?)
