Bugfix release 1.1.1a for DDKWizard

Only some cosmetic changes and one real bugfix, of a bug that would cause confusion for users, were made. The bugfix concerns the Win32DLL project type. The 1.1.1 release did not have the line
DLLENTRY=DllMain
which was supposed to be in the SOURCES file. Please add it yourself of simply update your version using this bugfix release. The effect without this fix is, that your DllMain will be ignored and the linker will use some default one.

Fetch the new release here.

Next planned features are compatibility with Mark Roddy’s DDKBUILD and some enhancements of the DDKWizard setup. I’ll probably include a page where the user can set the (DDKBUILD) variables for the installed DDKs and the installation directory will not be variable upon update/upgrade of an existing installation (probably that step will be skipped completely). Also on the page with the variables there will possibly be a download link for the currently supported DDKBUILD flavors.

Eeek, the WDK build introduced a nasty change in behavior …

Today I noticed something very unpleasant when I tried to build a project that was initially created with DDKWizard with the WDK instead of the WNET DDK.

Only one .rc file is allowed per directory. You may however include one .rc file in another.

Eeek, that is nasty. Guess what, the WNET DDK builds it without any complaints. Not well thought, MS … :-(
