- the image I have been working with has been 64 bits all along, so I wasted my time trying to recreate a 32 bit dll using vs 2015
- I was once able to read pamresources.dll with this image, but I can no longer do so.
- I thought I corrupted the original dlls.icx, so I created dlls2 and dlls3 images
- neither one works even if I run just once after importing the needed maps.
- I mis-spelled aModuleName := 'pamRebbbsources.dll' and dlls.ws still ran to completion.
- I renamed pamresouces.dll to pamXXXresources.dll in the progFiles *x64) directy and dlls.ws still ran
- class variable iconCache in PamIcon starts off as and empty LookupTable.
- To do: run dlls.ws in a good Jas Dev JSO x86 image.
2025 01 28
- used res hacker to dump contents of the good pamresources.dll to pamresources.rc
- edited pamresources.rc and commented out the first line about LANGUAGE
- created a new project that is a dll and an empty project. saved it.
- add - > existing item added pamresources.rc
- under Project → propertied → linker → advanced chnnged entry point to NOENTRY
- build solution created a new win32project3.dll of size 168 kb that looks ok in Res Hacker
- but the good pamresources.dll is 245K.
- the dlls.ws not longer works. I think I toasted my image.
- TO DO: use a jas open image and force a reload of the dll.
- modify PamHolder class»loadModuleNamed: aModuleName notifyWindow: aWindow
2025 01 23
- Several days of trying to get VS 2022 to do anything dll got nowhere.
- Downloaded and installed VS 2025 which has a simpler interface and some Internet help I found.
- Both VS installs take hours with no visual updates.
- But VS 2015 does not display some of the screens necessary to create a project. I suspect this is a Win 11 problem, The solution is a Win 7 or a Win 8 machine which could be used in the future.
- VS 2015 would not install on Chuck's Vista machine. Vista is between XP and 7.
- VS 2015 did install on my Lenovo with Win 8.1.
- VS 2015 needs two files documented in picture vs2015.png in C:\Users\donald\Pictures\000craigslist.
- created a pamresources.dll using VS 2015 and the non-Smalltalk source code/pamresources.rc as input.
- The pamresource.dll created is NOT the same as the real on and it is NOT a resource dll. It has a menu!
- Todo: try decomposing the real pamresources.dll using res hacker and the using that .rc file and the icons in VS 2015.
2025 01 17
- Res Hacker can save the contents of a dll to an .rc or .res file
- under action, selecting save all resources saves the icons as individual files and creates an .rc file like this: 1000 ICON “ICON1000_1.ico”
- An .rc file is a Resource Script.
- dlls.ws will read the 89 icons in pamresource.dll of 2007 in an x86 image.
- dlls.ws does not read any icons in either the x86 or x64 dlls in an x64 image.
- The x64 pamresource.dll created by the z:jas code is NOT the same and it is NOT a resource dll. It has a menu!
- Try using the z:jas project in VS2022 on the icons and .rc files in \temp\jasDlls
2025 01 16
- Z:\Jas\JSO\Non-Smalltalk Source Code\pamResources C++ 2010 has a VS project file that I was able to load and upgrade
- A build prodcued a 32 bit dll.
- Changing the target to x64, VS produced a 64 bit dll
- Need unit tests in VAST 32 and Vast 64
To Do
- get all the dlls from a clean vast 9.2 install and identify DONE2025 01 17
- get all the dlls from JasDev in both progFilesx86 and programData and identify DONE
- Look on Chuck's Vista machine for libGrib.dll and/or *.grb files
- Get a list of all Jas dlls on Chuck's Vista machine.
- Try to read all icons, and bitmaps in a 64 bit image using PamIconHolder class LoadModuleNamed:notify:
- Run Jas in open image and put breakpoint in gribLibPath DONE Never hit
- Run VP and confirm that ANLMagnitudes.dll, anlutils.dll, CgeoObject.dll, GeoProjections.dll, and GeoViewer.dll are used. DONE All but ANLMagnitudes are used by VP.
- Start JasDevJso, run sim and confirm that ANLMagnitudes.dll, anlutils.dll, CgeoObject.dll, GeoProjections.dll, and GeoViewer.dll are used DONE none of these dlls are used by the sim.
