edit control bug - EM_LIMITTEXT does not work

[Felipe W Damasio]

Hi,

When you try to limit the maximum chars accepted in an edit control by 
doing something like this:

SendMessage(hwndEdit, EM_LIMITTEXT, 10, 0);

Wine simply ignores it, and let the user type more than 10 (in this 
example) characters.

This looks bad, because the user could eventually overflow the 
allocated memory for the dialog, making the program crash.

Cesar Mello ([e-mail]) coded a little program to show this 
limitation:

ftp://ftp.elipse.com.br/pub/about1/about1-src.tar.gz

I just created a bug entry on bugs.winehq:

Could someone help me with this?

Thanks a lot and kind regards,

Felipe
