Re: [AD] problem with windows dialogs/ Win XP

[Daniel Sauder <daniel.sauder@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I made some more research and have a question:
- GetOpenFilename works correct when I changed the call of 
_CoInitializeEx(NULL, _COINIT_MULTITHREADED); to
_CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED); or to 
CoInitialize(NULL); in wthread.c (or when it isn't called,
see below)
Anybody knows what's exactly the difference between 
_COINIT_MULTITHREADED and COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED?

- GetOpenFilename dialog and MessageBox apear behind the main window 
when called, with the the changes above too.
I made a mistake with this (I should be more careful). It's working alright:
#include <allegro.h>
#include <winalleg.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
   allegro_init();
   install_keyboard();
   set_color_depth(16);
   set_gfx_mode(GFX_AUTODETECT_WINDOWED,640,480,0,0);

   //set_gfx_mode(GFX_GDI,640,480,0,0);
   set_gfx_mode(GFX_AUTODETECT_WINDOWED,640,480,0,0);
   OPENFILENAME ofn;
  
   //ofn.hwndOwner=win_get_window();   BAD
  
   memset(&ofn,0,sizeof(ofn));
   ofn.lStructSize=sizeof(OPENFILENAME);
   ofn.hwndOwner=win_get_window();   //GOOD
   char szFile[260]="";

   ofn.nMaxFile=sizeof(szFile);
   ofn.lpstrFile=szFile;   
  
   ofn.lpstrFilter="Bitmaps\0*.bmp\0All Files\0*.*\0\0";
   GetOpenFileName(&ofn);

}
END_OF_MAIN()

-Since I don't find a solution except changing the threading model when 
calling _CoInitializeEx, I'll write a small text for the FAQ.
