- Commit a great experiment for explorer. Our explorer will try to load a library called rshell.dll which will provide an alternative implementation of some functions that are built in in windows shell. These functions are CStartMenu_Constructor, SHCreateDesktop, SHDesktopMessageLoop, WinList_Init and ShellDDEInit. Providing our own implementation for these functions will allow us to make it run in all windows versions up to windows 8 and also test the implementation of our own components that will be placed temporarily in rshell.dll while they are developed and debugged in windows. svn path=/branches/shell-experiments/; revision=61971
======================== ReactOS Version 0.3.x Updated Dec 16, 2006 ======================== 1. What is ReactOS? ReactOS is an Open Source effort to develop a quality operating system that is compatible with Windows NT applications and drivers. The ReactOS project, although currently focused on Windows XP/2003 drivers compatibility, is always keeping an eye toward compatibility with older version of Windows NT family ( NT 4.0, 2000 (NT 5.0)) and new Windows NT releases (Vista, etc). Applications (Win32 API) compatibility focus is Windows XP. More information is available at http://www.reactos.org/. 2. Building ReactOS See the INSTALL file for more details. 3. More information See the media\doc subdirectory for some sparse notes. 4. Who is responsible See the CREDITS file.
