I have a strange effect on my XP computer.
While I am trying Timos ComCtlGetVersion I suddenly had an other ide look. There were two triangels in the toolbar, to run and debug the project (hope you know what I mean).
Usually I have the toolbar on the attached image!
While I had this other toolbar I tryed the new project dialog and all icons are displayed ok.

I have tryed to reproduce this. But now I always get the usual toolbar (image) and the new project dialog with the default icons.

My ComCtl32.dll version is 5.82.2900.6028 (I have never updated IExplorer because I generally use Chrome).
Anyway my ComCtl32.ocx version is 6.0.81.5

I have the following versions of ComCtl32.dll on my XP machine:

5.82.2900.6028 (617472 bytes) in system32
5.82.2900.5512 (617472 bytes)
6.0.2600.0 (921088 bytes)
6.0.2900.2180 (1050624 bytes)
6.0.2900.5512 (1050208 bytes)
6.0.2900.6028 (1050208 bytes) this is found by Timo's code

Timo: I have used DLLVERSIONINFO2 here:

Code: [Select]
DLLVERSIONINFO2 dvi;
char szTmp[260];
dvi.info1.cbSize = sizeof(dvi);
DllGetVersion(&dvi.info1);
wsprintf(szTmp, "%d.%d.%d.%d",
(WORD)((dvi.ullVersion >> 48) & 0xFFFF),
(WORD)((dvi.ullVersion >> 32) & 0xFFFF),
(WORD)((dvi.ullVersion >> 16) & 0xFFFF),
(WORD)(dvi.ullVersion & 0xFFFF));

It is a little bit strange, that the dll-path
Code: [Select]
C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS\x86_Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.2600.6028_x-ww_61e65202has 6.0.2600.6028 while the dll has 6.0.2900.6028 as version string.

Poide seems to use the same dll (process viewer).

Btw. all the comctl32.dll in C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS use the same public key token in its directory name. So it is not possible to force one of this dlls to load by a manifest.

Thank's czerny.
Corrected code with ComCtlVer.lib and ComCtlVer64.lib too.

Some observations:

I usually have XP running not in XP-stil but in classic style.

Today, after booting the machine and starting Pelles C, I have the triangle toolbar and the new-project-dialog shows all the individual icons. I could close the ide and restart it, all remains ok.

So I decided to test if an reboot has any effect.

After the the reboot I got suddenly XP-style on my desktop automatically!  :-\
I don't understand this at all.

I started Pelles C: all ok.

I closed the IDE and changed to classic style: all wrong.

I changed to XP-style and started the IDE: all ok.

I changed to classic style (without closing the IDE): all ok.

The help says, that an icon with the ordinal #1 as resource in the dll is used as wizard icon. Most of the standard wizards have such an icon included, but it is not displayed. See the picture as an example for msvcproj.dll. You can see the 'new project' dialog, which shows not the icon on the left but a default icon.

Can you see the icon on the left in your ide?

I believe I have seen that left icon somewhere before maybe in Eclipse?  I used to work in Eclipse "trying" to program Android unfortunately had no luck.  I am incredibly stupid.   :)

However if you ever get the chance to use WinRAR 3.93 - I found it to be very efficient and fast; even found it faster than the 64-bit edition so that is weird.  Also you can use your own icons if you make a self-extracting WinRAR file.  Although it is NOT free.

Anyways, I just wanted to say I see that icon just in case you need another person to verify.

Have a happy Advent and Christmas!
