ReactOS 0.4.0 Released
by Amine Khaldi 17 Feb '16

17 Feb '16

Nearly ten years ago the ReactOS Project released version 0.3.0. Today we are proud to announce the formal release of version 0.4.0! A great deal of work has gone into making this release happen and as we look back it is remarkable to consider how far the project has come since that release a decade ago. This release is both a celebration of and a testament to everything that the ReactOS team and community has achieved together. Here we document some of the highlights that separate 0.4.0 from not just the 0.3.17 release but also the cumulative achievements that the 0.3.x series achieved: https://reactos.org/project-news/reactos-040-released A changelog is available at: https://reactos.org/wiki/ChangeLog-0.4.0 Thank you to all of you for having stood by the project for this long and we hope rewarding journey. For those of you chomping at the bit to check out the release, please go to the download page to get it now: https://reactos.org/download

About ReactOS "perception" by people
by Hermès BÉLUSCA - MAÏTO 17 Feb '16

Hi all ! Please have a look at http://www.reactos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2 <http://www.reactos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=14713> &t=14713 , I think these two posts (at the time of writing this mail) show/remind few points about ReactOS that need to be more emphased/better explained in our website (and concerning the license, better be shown; notice that we run with GPL + BSD for some parts of the code). Regards, Hermès

IIRC, it's a hack because neither x nor y is usually -32000, so those are flag values instead of fixed actual values. You have enough physical screens laid out in a line it's possible (16 1080p + a 1280 wide one), but still unlikely on one system given it would take multiple video cards to drive that many. The desktop as a decorated window hides the resize frame and title bar by positioning outside the effective area of a multiple screen layout and using a width and height that just encompasses the layout in Display Properties as the client area dimensions, with (0,0) of the viewports being one of the corners of the primary screen's client area. This forces at least one position coordinate to be negative by at least the width of the resize frame. I forget whether this is documented in the DDK or SDK, sorry, and which edition. ------ Original message------From: James TaborDate: Sat, Feb 13, 2016 12:03 AMTo: ReactOS Development List;Cc: Subject:[ros-dev] [ros-diffs] [hbelusca] 70713: [WIN32SS] - Fix orthograph - Mention in the code that some stuff are hacks & need to be fixed. - Add parentheses around bit checks.

I think you guys took more time to debug and mess with the DPRINT then it would've taken to implement the function. Come on guys.

For everyone who thinks this looks terrible: don't view it in your browser. Instead download it and open it with a proper image viewer. Then your eyes stop bleeding and it actually looks good :) Timo Am 06.01.2016 um 10:31 schrieb cfinck(a)svn.reactos.org: > Author: cfinck > Date: Wed Jan 6 09:31:53 2016 > New Revision: 70507 > > URL: http://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos?rev=70507&view=rev > Log: > [BOOTVID] > Change the Blue Screen Font hardcoded into bootvid.dll to the Open Source "Anonymous Pro" font, which makes a nice 8x13 font. > Blue Screens now look like this: http://fs5.directupload.net/images/160106/ehv6245t.png > > [BOOTVID_FONT_GENERATOR] > In case you find an even better font, you now have a nice little tool to test that font and generate the corresponding FontData array for bootvid. > > Added: > trunk/rosapps/applications/devutils/bootvid_font_generator/ > trunk/rosapps/applications/devutils/bootvid_font_generator/CMakeLists.txt (with props) > trunk/rosapps/applications/devutils/bootvid_font_generator/bootvid_font_generator.c (with props) > Modified: > trunk/reactos/drivers/base/bootvid/arm/bootdata.c > trunk/reactos/drivers/base/bootvid/i386/bootdata.c > trunk/rosapps/applications/devutils/CMakeLists.txt > > [This mail would be too long, it was shortened to contain the URLs only.] > > Modified: trunk/reactos/drivers/base/bootvid/arm/bootdata.c > URL: http://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos/trunk/reactos/drivers/base/bootvid/arm/b… > > Modified: trunk/reactos/drivers/base/bootvid/i386/bootdata.c > URL: http://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos/trunk/reactos/drivers/base/bootvid/i386/… > > Modified: trunk/rosapps/applications/devutils/CMakeLists.txt > URL: http://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos/trunk/rosapps/applications/devutils/CMak… > > Added: trunk/rosapps/applications/devutils/bootvid_font_generator/CMakeLists.txt > URL: http://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos/trunk/rosapps/applications/devutils/boot… > > Added: trunk/rosapps/applications/devutils/bootvid_font_generator/bootvid_font_generator.c > URL: http://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos/trunk/rosapps/applications/devutils/boot… > > >
