This upgrade adds support for ImageHlp to Ada Bindings to Win32 (WinAPI) Version 4.1 which is distributed with ObjectAda OpenPack Version 7.2.1 by Aonix. It can be installed as described below (see Installation).

*** WARNING ***

ImageHlp.ads includes some hand edits to avoid releasing WinAPI.ads. At the next full release of WinAPI the following declarations will move into package WinAPI:

AddressOfAddressOfIMAGE_SECTION_HEADER
AddressOfPIMAGE_SECTION_HEADER

Installation

The upgrade can be downloaded using winapi412.zip (710 KB).

The sources can be extracted directly into an ObjectAda installation. For example, assuming ObjectAda is installed in c:\program files\aonix\objectada then the files can be extracted as follows:

>c:
>cd \"program files"\aonix\objectada\winapi
>..\bin\unzip winapi412.zip

That should have installed the following files:

objectada\winapi\v4.1\binding\ascii\src\wincon.ada
objectada\winapi\v4.1\binding\ascii\src\imagehlp.ads
objectada\winapi\v4.1\binding\ascii\src\imagehlp.adb

objectada\winapi\v4.1\binding\ascii\lib\vc60sp4.lrf

objectada\winapi\v4.1\binding\unicode\src\wincon.ada
objectada\winapi\v4.1\binding\unicode\src\imagehlp.ads
objectada\winapi\v4.1\binding\unicode\src\imagehlp.adb

objectada\winapi\v4.1\binding\unicode\lib\vc60sp4.lrf

objectada\winapi\v4.1\samples\version\version.ada

Having installed the sources they can be compiled as follows:

>cd v4.1\binding\ascii\lib
>adaopts -p ..\..\..\..\..\lib\rts
>..\..\..\..\..\bin\adacomp ..\src\wincon.ada
>..\..\..\..\..\bin\adacomp ..\src\imagehlp.ads
>..\..\..\..\..\bin\adacomp ..\src\imagehlp.adb
>cd ..\..\unicode\lib
>adaopts -p ..\..\..\..\..\lib\rts
>..\..\..\..\..\bin\adacomp ..\src\wincon.ada
>..\..\..\..\..\bin\adacomp ..\src\imagehlp.ads
>..\..\..\..\..\bin\adacomp ..\src\imagehlp.adb

The packages can now be with'ed into any program which is linked to the WinAPI library.

The sample, Version, illustrates the use of the new package ImageHlp.
