Talk:Daodan DLL

Its cool that my version of Daodan got added to this page (I was going to add it myself, but I never got around to it) but I was wondering, why "Pelles C"? MinGW GCC is a very good compiler. As for assembly, both GCC and Pelles C support inline and external assembly (I don't know about MASM syntax, although MinGW's linker can take input from other compilers.) It doesn't really matter though as both compilers compile C99 and should be relatively compatible.

The reason I changed C Daodan to replace binkw32.dll instead of adding vtuneapi.dll is that I had to patch a function that was called before vtuneapi was loaded. Turns out that the reason Alt-Tab and the Windows key didn't work is because the Oni developers specifically disabled them. (this is the part that prints "system sleep disabled, keystroke traps installed" in startup.txt.) The function that prints these is called before vtuneapi is loaded so I had to switch to replacing binkw32.dll. C Daodan still works as vtuneapi.dll however Alt-Tab and the Windows key don't work when it's used like this.
