Working a bit with installers

[Carlos Lozano]

Hello,

I have been playing a bit with a installer what the
background appears above of the window what you must
press "NEXT>>", what you can't select. It worked only
using "Managed" = "No".

Changing the line:
dlls/x11drv/windows.c

inline static BOOL is_window_managed( WND *win )
{
    if (!managed_mode) return FALSE;
    /* tray window is always managed */
    if (win->dwExStyle & WS_EX_TRAYWINDOW) return TRUE;
    /* child windows are not managed */
    if (win->dwStyle & WS_CHILD) return FALSE;
    /* tool windows are not managed */
    if (win->dwExStyle & WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW) return FALSE;
    /* windows with caption or thick frame are managed */
    if ((win->dwStyle & WS_CAPTION) == WS_CAPTION) return TRUE;
    if (win->dwStyle & WS_THICKFRAME) return TRUE;
    /* default: not managed */
    return FALSE; 
   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
with

    return TRUE;

It is possible install (at least in my case) the program even
in managed mode.

Regards,
Carlos.

After of some tests, it looks like better:

dlls/x11drv/windows.c

inline static BOOL is_window_managed( WND *win )
{
    if (!managed_mode) return FALSE;
    /* tray window is always managed */
    if (win->dwExStyle & WS_EX_TRAYWINDOW) return TRUE;
    /* child windows are not managed */
    if (win->dwStyle & WS_CHILD) return FALSE;
    /* tool windows are not managed */
    if (win->dwExStyle & WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW) return FALSE;
    /* windows with caption or thick frame are managed */
    if ((win->dwStyle & WS_CAPTION) == WS_CAPTION) return TRUE;
    if (win->dwStyle & WS_THICKFRAME) return TRUE;

    /* Tested with Praetoriam demo & VTD Amaril installer */
    if ((win->dwStyle & (WS_CLIPSIBLINGS|WS_CLIPCHILDREN) ) ==
        (WS_CLIPSIBLINGS|WS_CLIPCHILDREN))
	   return TRUE;  
    /******************************************************/
    
    /* default: not managed */
    return FALSE;

Regards,
Carlos.
