详细Windows API大全有关知识以及相关问题

What's this package all about?

This package contains translations for some of the core Win32 API header files
(OP interface units) which allow you to call into the Win32 API. Delphi has some
of these interface units already but the ones in this distribution are more up
to date than the Delphi ones. You won't find files like WinNT, WinUser and
WinBase in the Delphi distribution because Borland R&D choose to combine their
translations of these files into one large Windows.pas. I created these units
because the Borland ones have always been incomplete and I wanted full access to
the Win32 API, most noticable the new Windows 2000 APIs.

All files in this distribution are:

Copyright (C) 2000 Marcel van Brakel

for the time being. They'll be released under the MPL soon. This distribution
may only be used for testing and evaluation purposes. Unless you're helping with
testing these units, they are also unsupported. In other words, don't send me
questions about how to use them, I won't respond!

Note that I haven't included the Native.pas unit in this distribution because
it's not part of the documented Win32 API. If you want it, let me know and I'll
be happy to send you a copy. In case you don't know, the Native.pas unit contains
declarations for the Windows NT Native API. This is a mostly undocumented API
which is normally used only by system utilities and NT subsystems (csrss, posix
etc). This particular unit targets Windows 2000 only and are unsupported, I
won't answer any questions related to the usage of this unit.

The header files used for these translations are from the July 2000 Platform SDK
and some (eg WinNT and Native) are (partially) from the Windows 2000 DDK. There
are a few more headers I intend to convert in the upcoming weeks and will update
this package as I progress. 

NOTE: The WinLDAP.pas and LM.pas interface units are not mine!!! I included them
in this zip because of dependencies on it.
