Hello, Please let me know if this is a very VM question, and I will make sure to post it on the Beginners list instead...
Anyway...I would like to use Squeak as a background tray application in Windows with a dynamic right-click menu depending on the state of my application. I have successfully modified and compiled a " SqueakVM-Win32-3.10.6" package to include an "options menu" for the taskbar icon.
Keeping the menus in sync could be done using an INI file the same way as the preference menu functionality in sqWin32Prefs.c, but with custom message ID's listed there as well. However, having never poked around in the VM before (and being years since I did anything in C), I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction to post a message from within the Windows message loop that the interpreted image would see.
This is obviously being done to pass keyboard and mouse events back and forth...I was just hoping someone could help me narrow down my search to find the correct functions to call on the C-side, and the correct way to listen for the message on the Smalltalk side!
Thanks,
Rob Rothwell
