Enables an application to "manually" report faults to Microsoft. Although you can use this function to report application crashes, Microsoft recommends that applications not handle fatal errors directly but instead rely on the crash reporting capability provided by the operating system.

The success of the name conversion request depends on where the client is bound. Clients bind to specific instances of the directory service using some variant of DsBind. If bound to a global catalog, the scope of the name mapping is the entire forest. If not bound to a global catalog, the scope of the name mapping is the domain not covered by a global catalog for that domain controller. If not bound to a global catalog and a name is not found, but the input name unambiguously identifies its domain and this domain is in the forest, then the return data identifies the DNS domain name for the domain of interest. Clients are expected to use this data to bind to the correct domain controller or global catalog and call DsCrackNames again with the new bind handle.

Actually, there's no COLORREF structure in native Win32. It is typedef-ed to DWORD, which means that in the managed world its direct counterpart is [System.Int32] (aka int in C#). So, when faced with interop involving COLORREF'S you'd better treat them as int's. Also have in mind that the color components are stored in reverse order, i.e. the Red component is in the lowest-byte. In short, the format is 0x00BBGGRR. You can use a code similar to the following to obtain a COLORREF:

    public RECT rcItem;

    public RECT rcButton;

As of .net 3.5 the DEVMODE structure is declared incorrectly causing incorrect values to be returned after dmBitsPerPel. The structures above have been updated to reflect the correct implementation.

POINTL was incorrectly declared to use longs instead of ints, this has been fixed.

The .NET Framework class Font, has a method, Font::FromLogfont that takes an Object reference as it's method parameter. You must define a managed LOGFONT class using the same format as the C# signature above. When using the StructLayout attribute on the class definition, you must set the CharSet property to Auto (the default is Ansi, which will not work correctly). The only difficulty encountered is passing the string value (the designated Font Face Name) to the FromLogfont method; apparently, this must have the attribute: [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType::ByValTStr)] enum value for the method to work correctly. Then, when instantiating a new Font in your managed application, you must cast the LOGFONT class (with appropriate member values assigned) to a System::Object for the function to work without generating a runtime exception.

   RECT[] rgrc;

    Type: RECT[3]

    An array of rectangles. The meaning of the array of rectangles changes during the processing of the WM_NCCALCSIZE message.

    When the window procedure receives the WM_NCCALCSIZE message, the first rectangle contains the new coordinates of a window that has been moved or resized, that is, it is the proposed new window coordinates. The second contains the coordinates of the window before it was moved or resized. The third contains the coordinates of the window's client area before the window was moved or resized. If the window is a child window, the coordinates are relative to the client area of the parent window. If the window is a top-level window, the coordinates are relative to the screen origin.

    When the window procedure returns, the first rectangle contains the coordinates of the new client rectangle resulting from the move or resize. The second rectangle contains the valid destination rectangle, and the third rectangle contains the valid source rectangle. The last two rectangles are used in conjunction with the return value of the WM_NCCALCSIZE message to determine the area of the window to be preserved.
