This is a work in progress.

IMPORTANT: When adding a change, write a REAL NAME of the person, not his IRC or whatever nicks. This is an official paper. Also, reference bug numbers at the end of the change, in braces, like (your name, bug #2373).


This is the changelog for ReactOS™ version 0.3.4 (released when *censored* freezes over), an open-source operating system designed to be binary executable- and device driver-compatible with Microsoft™ Windows NT™ and subsequent Microsoft operating systems such as Windows 2000™ and Windows XP™. ReactOS is written by the ReactOS development team, and the last previous version of ReactOS was version 0.3.3 (released 12 September, 2007).

Win32™ Applications

3D Text OpenGL Screensaver

Downloader

  • Оptions added: save or delete files after download, and choose download directory (Dmitry Chapyshev)
  • Display basic download status (Thomas Bluemel)

Control

Cmd

  • Fix memory leaks/wrong heap usage by replacing calls to _tcsdup with cmd_dup (Thomas Bluemel)
  • Display a list of all leaked memory blocks when terminating (Thomas Bluemel)

Eventvwr

  • Added an Event Log Viewer (Marc Piulachs, bug #2602)
  • Hardcoded the Window class string, there is no reason for it to be in localized resource files (Colin Finck)

LogEvent

  • Added a LogEvent utility for adding an event to the EventLog (Marc Piulachs)

Matrix Screensaver

  • Set g_nMatrixSpeed to 10 as the default value. This makes it working correctly under Windows XP SP2 and Windows Server 2003 again (Colin Finck)

Solitaire

    This enables us to use the Bavarian cards.dll and theoretically cards in any size (Colin Finck)
  • Compute the card offset for the row stack based on the height of the card (Colin Finck)
  • Bugfix: When you used the 1-card-mode before, there never was a card behind the one, which you drag from the pile.
    Now Solitaire collects all the cards from the deck in the 1-card-mode like Windows Solitaire does. (Colin Finck)
  • Make it possible to use the "O" and the "X" sign as empty images for a deck.
    Actually make use of the "O" sign for the deck. (Colin Finck)

    This way the dialog looks normally, also with bigger cards like the Bavarian ones. (Colin Finck)

Shutdown

Taskmgr

  • Ensure that the "Name" column will always be shown, so a Registry setting can't influence it. (Carlo Bramini, bug #2217)
  • Taskmgr could already be compiled only when Unicode compilation was enabled.
    Make this obvious now by replacing all TCHAR's and TCHAR functions with WCHAR's and wide-character functions and getting rid of the "tchar.h" inclusion. (Colin Finck)
  • Fixed a handle leak (Pierre Schweitzer, bug #2772)

Win32™ Libraries

CARDS

  • Merge the card bitmaps of "cardsbav" to our cards.dll and specify with preprocessor definitions, which cards shall be compiled into the DLL (Colin Finck)

INPUT

TAPIUI

KBDCZ1

MME API (WinMM / MMSystem)

MSGINA

SHELL32

  • Call ShellExecute with NULL instead of "open", so the default action will always be used (Colin Finck, bug #1461)
