Important Notes with the 1.78 Release

The Developer's Kit 1.78 Release 2 has been reworked to address many of the shortcomings outlined below. We still recommend you read the following, and be aware that there are areas in the current Developer's Kit that may still refer to the original implementation. Please advise us if you run into sections that need to be updated.

Close to 1 million years ago (or at least a very long time ago) when the predecessor of the current My-T-Soft family of products was first introduced, there was no "Program Files" location. For various reasons, the product installation was placed in the WINDOWS directory as a sub-directory (now a folder). For consistency & compatibility, this installation location was preserved through all the various incarnations of Windows. Now, however, for compatibility with Windows Vista, and to bring the installation location more in line with user expectations, the install location for the program files has been moved, and is now in the "Program Files" folder. Also, for the first time, the user configuration files are separated from the actual installation location (as the new default). This change, in and of itself, was not too major for the product, but did require modifications to various portions of the product code. Because the Developer's Kit is so broad, the release of the product was not delayed to bring the Developer's Kit in line with these changes. So as of the time of the 1.78 release, the Developer's Kit is more in tune with the 1.77 release than the new 1.78 release. Please check for updates, and additions to the Developer's Kit that address these changes. In order to accommodate these expected updates, a release number has been incorporated in the Developer's Kit and its naming. As of the 1.78 release, the Developer's Kit 1.78 is tagged Release 1. Look for future releases in this area as time rolls on. Finally, if there are other areas that you wish to be addressed by the Developer's Kit, please let us know.

Support

• Make sure to check the Technical Support pages for the particular product for any general support issues
• The following are notes for Kits prior to 1.72
• CPYCNMTS.EXE and FWCTLMTS.EXE utilities used C based File functions, and created Read-Only files in NT/2000. The 1.72 update uses only Win32 API calls to resolve this issue. Quality testing was done on Win98, so this made it out the door in 1.71.
• The following are notes for Kits prior to 1.71
• MOVEWMTS.EXE, MoveWindow issues - In All Developer's Kits prior to 1.50, the final parameter in MoveWindow, the "repaint" flag, is FALSE. For My-T-Pen and My-T-Touch 3.x/95/98 versions, 1.53 or earlier and My-T-Soft NT 1.47 or earlier, this parameter did not affect visual appearances. For My-T-Soft NT 1.49, 1.50 and all versions of My-T-Touch, My-T-Pen, and My-T-Soft 1.60 or greater, for proper repainting (and refreshing the desktop (or any window uncovered via MOVEWMTS)), the parameter should be set TRUE (this is done in DevKit 1.50).
• SDSTRMTS.EXE, 1.51 required for escape sequences (%%x) keystrokes embedded in string.
• SDSTRM32.EXE, 32-bit version required for "cooked" keys embedded in string (i.e. [Enter]).
• Using the CPYCNMTS / CONFGMTS utilities in Windows 95/98/Me
  The source files reference the WINNT location instead of WINDOWS for these platforms (the original My-T-Soft was only for the NT/2000 platforms). In order to fix this, either
  A) Modify the source files & recompile (Windows C Compiler required)
  B) Create a CONFGMTS.INI file in the \WINDOWS directory
  (Reference Developer Kit docs regarding this Override)
  The file must contain:
  
  [Location]
  MTSINIFILE=C:\WINDOWS\MYTSOFT\MYTSOFT.INI
  
  This assumes a default install in Windows 95/98/Me.
  This issue will be addressed in Dev Kit versions greater than 1.70.
