MrBcx:
Excellent demo Frankie!

It boggles the mind why MS makes some things so damn difficult to use.

Thank you for sharing this.

Hi Frankie,

Thanks for your efforts. The executable does not run on Windows 7 64-bit :


--- Code: ---\PellesC\bin\podump.exe /IMPORTS ToastDemo.exe | findstr ".dll"
--- End code ---


--- Code: ---        KERNEL32.dll
        ADVAPI32.dll
        USER32.dll
        ole32.dll
        api-ms-win-core-winrt-l1-1-0.dll
        api-ms-win-core-winrt-string-l1-1-0.dll

--- End code ---

The last two DLLs are missing on my system.

Installing the Update for Universal C Runtime ( Windows 7 ) didn't help.

Testing Win 7 and using missing dlls

--- Code: ---Second chance exception 0xC0000005 (Access Violation) occurred in "TOASTDEMO.EXE" at address 0x000000013FEB160C.

--- End code ---

--- Code: ---22.08.2013  13:45             4 096 api-ms-win-core-threadpool-l1-1-0.dll
22.08.2013  13:42             3 584 api-ms-win-core-winrt-error-l1-1-0.dll

22.08.2013  13:42             4 096 api-ms-win-core-winrt-string-l1-1-0.dll
--- End code ---
here it crash:
--- Code: --- if (!SUCCEEDED(RoGetActivationFactory(hsToastNotificationManager, &IID_IToastNotificationManagerStatics, (LPVOID*)&pToastNotificationManager)))
return 1;

--- End code ---
Better to do this:
--- Code: --- if (!SUCCEEDED(RoGetActivationFactory(hsToastNotificationManager, &IID_IToastNotificationManagerStatics, (LPVOID*)&pToastNotificationManager)))
return 1;
if (!pToastNotificationManager)
return 2;

--- End code ---

Hello,

On a Windows 11 system, the application works fine. Testing on a Windows 10 computer, I can only type 1 line as the Enter key has no any effect.
