Note that this argument is recognized only if it is strictly numerical. You can use either one of the process modes: P_WAIT (0) = wait until child terminates (default) P_NOWAIT = do not wait until child terminates P_SESSION = new session P_DETACH = detached P_PM = PM program and optionally add PM and session option bits: P_DEFAULT (0) = default P_MINIMIZE = minimized P_MAXIMIZE = maximized P_FULLSCREEN = fullscreen (session only) P_WINDOWED = windowed (session only) P_FOREGROUND = foreground (if running in foreground) P_BACKGROUND = background P_NOCLOSE = don't close window on exit (session only) P_QUOTE = quote all arguments P_TILDE = MKS argument passing convention P_UNRELATED = do not kill child when father terminates =head2 Access to process properties On OS/2 processes have the usual I semantic; additionally, there is a hierarchy of sessions with their own I tree. A session is either a FS session, or a windowed pseudo-session created by PM. A session is a "unit of user interaction", a change to in/out settings in one of them does not affect other sessions. =over =item my_type() returns the type of the current process (one of "FS", "DOS", "VIO", "PM", "DETACH" and "UNKNOWN"), or C on error. =item C returns the type of the executable file C, or dies on error. The bits 0-2 of the result contain one of the values =over =item C (0) Application type is not specified in the executable header. =item C (1) Application type is not-window-compatible. =item C (2) Application type is window-compatible. =item C (3) Application type is window-API. =back The remaining bits should be masked with the following values to determine the type of the executable: =over =item C (8) Set to 1 if the executable file has been "bound" (by the BIND command) as a Family API application. Bits 0, 1, and 2 still apply. =item C (0x10) Set to 1 if the executable file is a dynamic link library (DLL) module. Bits 0, 1, 2, 3, and 5 will be set to 0. =item C (0x20) Set to 1 if the executable file is in PC/DOS format. Bits 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 will be set to 0. =item C (0x40) Set to 1 if the executable file is a physical device driver. =item C (0x80) Set to 1 if the executable file is a virtual device driver. =item C (0x100) Set to 1 if the executable file is a protected-memory dynamic link library module. =item C (0x4000) Set to 1 for 32-bit executable files. =back file_type() may croak with one of the strings C<"Invalid EXE signature"> or C<"EXE marked invalid"> to indicate typical error conditions. If given non-absolute path, will look on C, will add extention F<.exe> if no extension is present (add extension F<.> to suppress). =item C<@list = process_codepages()> the first element is the currently active codepage, up to 2 additional entries specify the system's "prepared codepages": the codepages the user can switch to. The active codepage of a process is one of the prepared codepages of the system (if present). =item C sets the currently active codepage. [Affects printer output, in/out codepages of sessions started by this process, and the default codepage for drawing in PM; is inherited by kids. Does not affect the out- and in-codepages of the session.] =item ppid() returns the PID of the parent process. =item C returns the PID of the parent process of $pid. -1 on error. =item C returns the session id of the process id $pid. -1 on error. =back =head2 Control of VIO sessions VIO applications are applications running in a text-mode session. =over =item out_codepage() gets code page used for screen output (glyphs). -1 means that a user font was loaded. =item C sets code page used for screen output (glyphs). -1 switches to a preloaded user font. -2 switches off the preloaded user font. =item in_codepage() gets code page used for keyboard input. 0 means that a hardware codepage is used. =item C sets code page used for keyboard input. =item C<($w, $h) = scrsize()> width and height of the given console window in character cells. =item C set height (and optionally width) of the given console window in character cells. Use 0 size to keep the old size. =item C<($s, $e, $w, $a) = cursor()> gets start/end lines of the blinking cursor in the charcell, its width (1 on text modes) and attribute (-1 for hidden, in text modes other values mean visible, in graphic modes color). =item C sets start/end lines of the blinking cursor in the charcell. Negative values mean percents of the character cell height. =item screen() gets a buffer with characters and attributes of the screen. =item C restores the screen given the result of screen(). =back =head2 Control of the process list With the exception of Title_set(), all these calls require that PM is running, they would not work under alternative Session Managers. =over =item process_entry() returns a list of the following data: =over =item Title of the process (in the C list); =item window handle of switch entry of the process (in the C list); =item window handle of the icon of the process; =item process handle of the owner of the entry in C list; =item process id of the owner of the entry in C list; =item session id of the owner of the entry in C list; =item whether visible in C list; =item whether item cannot be switched to (note that it is not actually grayed in the C list)); =item whether participates in jump sequence; =item program type. Possible values are: PROG_DEFAULT 0 PROG_FULLSCREEN 1 PROG_WINDOWABLEVIO 2 PROG_PM 3 PROG_VDM 4 PROG_WINDOWEDVDM 7 Although there are several other program types for WIN-OS/2 programs, these do not show up in this field. Instead, the PROG_VDM or PROG_WINDOWEDVDM program types are used. For instance, for PROG_31_STDSEAMLESSVDM, PROG_WINDOWEDVDM is used. This is because all the WIN-OS/2 programs run in DOS sessions. For example, if a program is a windowed WIN-OS/2 program, it runs in a PROG_WINDOWEDVDM session. Likewise, if it's a full-screen WIN-OS/2 program, it runs in a PROG_VDM session. =item switch-entry handle. =back Optional arguments: the pid and the window-handle of the application running in the OS/2 session to query. =item process_hentry() similar to process_entry(), but returns a hash reference, the keys being title owner_hwnd icon_hwnd owner_phandle owner_pid owner_sid visible nonswitchable jumpable ptype sw_entry (a copy of the list of keys is in @hentry_fields). =item process_entries() similar to process_entry(), but returns a list of array reference for all the elements in the switch list (one controlling C window). =item process_hentries() similar to process_hentry(), but returns a list of hash reference for all the elements in the switch list (one controlling C window). =item change_entry() changes a process entry, arguments are the same as process_entry() returns. =item change_entryh() Similar to change_entry(), but takes a hash reference as an argument. =item process_hwnd() returns the C of the process entry (for VIO windowed processes this is the frame window of the session). =item Title() returns the text of the task switch menu entry of the current session. (There is no way to get this info in non-standard Session Managers. This implementation is a shortcut via process_entry().) =item C tries two different interfaces. The Session Manager one does not work with some windows (if the title is set from the start). This is a limitation of OS/2, in such a case $^E is set to 372 (type help 372 for a funny - and wrong - explanation ;-). In such cases a direct-manipulation of low-level entries is used (same as bothTitle_set()). Keep in mind that some versions of OS/2 leak memory with such a manipulation. =item winTitle() returns text of the titlebar of the current process' window. =item C sets text of the titlebar of the current process' window. The change does not affect the text of the switch entry of the current window. =item C sets text of the task switch menu entry of the current process' window. [There is no API to query this title.] Does it via SwitchEntry interface, not Session manager interface. The change does not affect the text of the titlebar of the current window. =item C sets text of the titlebar and task switch menu of the current process' window via direct manipulation of the windows' texts. =item C switch to session given by a switch list handle. Use of this function causes another window (and its related windows) of a PM session to appear on the front of the screen, or a switch to another session in the case of a non-PM program. In either case, the keyboard (and mouse for the non-PM case) input is directed to the new program. =back =head2 Control of the PM windows Some of these API's require sending a message to the specified window. In such a case the process needs to be a PM process, or to be morphed to a PM process via OS2::MorphPM(). For a temporary morphing to PM use L. Keep in mind that PM windows are engaged in 2 "orthogonal" window trees, as well as in the z-order list. One tree is given by the I relationship. This relationship affects drawing (child is drawn relative to its parent (lower-left corner), and the drawing is clipped by the parent's boundary; parent may request that I drawing is clipped to be confined to the outsize of the childs and/or siblings' windows); hiding; minimizing/restoring; and destroying windows. Another tree (not necessarily connected?) is given by I relationship. Ownership relationship assumes cooperation of the engaged windows via passing messages on "important events"; e.g., scrollbars send information messages when the "bar" is moved, menus send messages when an item is selected; frames move/hide/unhide/minimize/restore/change-z-order-of owned frames when the owner is moved/etc., and destroy the owned frames (even when these frames are not descendants) when the owner is destroyed; etc. [An important restriction on ownership is that owner should be created by the same thread as the owned thread, so they engage in the same message queue.] Windows may be in many different state: Focused (take keyboard events) or not, Activated (=Frame windows in the I tree between the root and the window with the focus; usually indicate such "active state" by titlebar highlights, and take mouse events) or not, Enabled/Disabled (this influences the ability to update the graphic, and may change appearance, as for enabled/disabled buttons), Visible/Hidden, Minimized/Maximized/Restored, Modal or not, etc. The APIs below all die() on error with the message being $^E. =over =item C gets "a text content" of a window. Requires (morphing to) PM. =item C sets "a text content" of a window. Requires (morphing to) PM. =item C<($x, $y, $flags, $width, $height, $behind, @rest) = WindowPos($hwnd)> gets window position info as 8 integers (of C), in the order suitable for WindowPos_set(). @rest is marked as "reserved" in PM docs. $flags is a combination of C constants. =item C<$hash = hWindowPos($hwnd)> gets window position info as a hash reference; the keys are C. Example: exit unless $hash->{flags} & SWP_MAXIMIZE; # Maximized =item C Set state of the window: position, size, zorder, show/hide, activation, minimize/maximize/restore etc. Which of these operations to perform is governed by $flags. =item C Same as C, but takes the position from keys C of the hash referenced by $hash. If $hwnd is explicitly specified, it overrides C<$hash->{hwnd}>. If $hash->{flags} is not specified, it is calculated basing on the existing keys of $hash. Requires (morphing to) PM. Example: hWindowPos_set {flags => SWP_MAXIMIZE}, $hwnd; # Maximize =item C<($pid, $tid) = WindowProcess($hwnd)> gets I and I of the process associated to the window. =item C returns the class name of the window. If this window is of any of the preregistered WC_* classes the class name returned is in the form "#nnnnn", where "nnnnn" is a group of up to five digits that corresponds to the value of the WC_* class name constant. =item FocusWindow() returns the handle of the focus window. Optional argument for specifying the desktop to use. =item C set the focus window by handle. Optional argument for specifying the desktop to use. E.g, the first entry in program_entries() is the C list. To show an application, use either one of WinShowWindow( $hwnd, 1 ); SetFocus( $hwnd ); SwitchToProgram($switch_handle); (Which work with alternative focus-to-front policies?) Requires (morphing to) PM. =item C gets the active subwindow's handle for $parentHwnd or desktop. Returns FALSE if none. =item C sets the active subwindow's handle for $parentHwnd or desktop. Requires (morphing to) PM. =item C Set visible/hidden flag of the window. Default: $show is TRUE. =item C Set window visibility state flag for the window for subsequent drawing. No actual drawing is done at this moment. Use C when redrawing is needed. While update is disabled, changes to the "window state" do not change the appearence of the window. Default: $update is TRUE. (What is manipulated is the bit C of the window style.) =item C Set the window enabled state. Default: $enable is TRUE. Results in C message sent to the window. Typically, this would change the appearence of the window. If at the moment of disabling focus is in the window (or a descendant), focus is lost (no focus anywhere). If focus is needed, it can be reassigned explicitly later. =item IsWindowEnabled(), IsWindowVisible(), IsWindowShowing() these functions take $hwnd as an argument. IsWindowEnabled() queries the state changed by EnableWindow(), IsWindowVisible() the state changed by ShowWindow(), IsWindowShowing() is true if there is a part of the window visible on the screen. =item C post message to a window. The meaning of $mp1, $mp2 is specific for each message id $msg, they default to 0. E.g., use OS2::Process qw(:DEFAULT WM_SYSCOMMAND WM_CONTEXTMENU WM_SAVEAPPLICATION WM_QUIT WM_CLOSE SC_MAXIMIZE SC_RESTORE); $hwnd = process_hentry()->{owner_hwnd}; # Emulate choosing `Restore' from the window menu: PostMsg $hwnd, WM_SYSCOMMAND, MPFROMSHORT(SC_RESTORE); # Not immediate # Emulate `Show-Contextmenu' (Double-Click-2), two ways: PostMsg ActiveWindow, WM_CONTEXTMENU; PostMsg FocusWindow, WM_CONTEXTMENU; /* Emulate `Close' */ PostMsg ActiveWindow, WM_CLOSE; /* Same but with some "warnings" to the application */ $hwnd = ActiveWindow; PostMsg $hwnd, WM_SAVEAPPLICATION; PostMsg $hwnd, WM_CLOSE; PostMsg $hwnd, WM_QUIT; In fact, MPFROMSHORT() may be omited above. For messages to other processes, messages which take/return a pointer are not supported. =item C The functions MPFROMSHORT(), MPVOID(), MPFROMCHAR(), MPFROM2SHORT(), MPFROMSH2CH(), MPFROMLONG() can be used the same way as from C. Use them to construct parameters $m1, $m2 to PostMsg(). These functions are not exported by default. =item C<$eh = BeginEnumWindows($hwnd)> starts enumerating immediate child windows of $hwnd in z-order. The enumeration reflects the state at the moment of BeginEnumWindows() calls; use IsWindow() to be sure. All the functions in this group require (morphing to) PM. =item C<$kid_hwnd = GetNextWindow($eh)> gets the next kid in the list. Gets 0 on error or when the list ends. =item C End enumeration and release the list. =item C<@list = ChildWindows([$hwnd])> returns the list of child windows at the moment of the call. Same remark as for enumeration interface applies. Defaults to HWND_DESKTOP. Example of usage: sub l { my ($o,$h) = @_; printf ' ' x $o . "%#x\n", $h; l($o+2,$_) for ChildWindows $h; } l 0, $HWND_DESKTOP =item C true if the window handle is still valid. =item C gets the handle of a related window. $type should be one of C constants. =item C return TRUE if $hwnd is a descendant of $parent. =item C return a window handle of a child of $hwnd with the given $id. hwndSysMenu = WinWindowFromID(hwndDlg, FID_SYSMENU); WinSendMsg(hwndSysMenu, MM_SETITEMATTR, MPFROM2SHORT(SC_CLOSE, TRUE), MPFROM2SHORT(MIA_DISABLED, MIA_DISABLED)); =item C gets a handle of a child of $hwndParent at C<($x,$y)>. If $descedantsToo (defaulting to 1) then children of children may be returned too. May return $hwndParent (defaults to desktop) if no suitable children are found, or 0 if the point is outside the parent. $x and $y are relative to $hwndParent. =item C gets a dialog item window handle for an item of type $type of $dlgHwnd relative to $relativeHwnd, which is descendant of $dlgHwnd. $relativeHwnd may be specified if $type is EDI_FIRSTTABITEM or EDI_LASTTABITEM. The return is always an immediate child of hwndDlg, even if hwnd is not an immediate child window. $type may be =over =item EDI_FIRSTGROUPITEM First item in the same group. =item EDI_FIRSTTABITEM First item in dialog with style WS_TABSTOP. hwnd is ignored. =item EDI_LASTGROUPITEM Last item in the same group. =item EDI_LASTTABITEM Last item in dialog with style WS_TABSTOP. hwnd is ignored. =item EDI_NEXTGROUPITEM Next item in the same group. Wraps around to beginning of group when the end of the group is reached. =item EDI_NEXTTABITEM Next item with style WS_TABSTOP. Wraps around to beginning of dialog item list when end is reached. =item EDI_PREVGROUPITEM Previous item in the same group. Wraps around to end of group when the start of the group is reached. For information on the WS_GROUP style, see Window Styles. =item EDI_PREVTABITEM Previous item with style WS_TABSTOP. Wraps around to end of dialog item list when beginning is reached. =back =item ResetWinError() Resets $^E. One may need to call it before the C-class APIs which may return 0 during normal operation. In such a case one should check both for return value being zero and $^E being non-zero. The following APIs do ResetWinError() themselves, thus do not need an explicit one: WindowPtr WindowULong WindowUShort WindowTextLength ActiveWindow PostMsg This function is normally not needed. Not exported by default. =back =head1 OS2::localMorphPM class This class morphs the process to PM for the duration of the given scope. { my $h = OS2::localMorphPM->new(0); # Do something } The argument has the same meaning as one to OS2::MorphPM().

To avoid this, for example for dialogwindows, you can also "disconnect" this relationship with: WinSetWindowBits (hwndFrameChild, QWL_STYLE , FS_NOMOVEWITHOWNER , FS_NOMOVEWITHOWNER); Adding a button icon later: /* switch the button style to BS_MINIICON */ WinSetWindowBits(hwndBtn, QWL_STYLE, BS_MINIICON, BS_MINIICON) ; /* set up button control data */ BTNCDATA bcd; bcd.cb = sizeof(BTNCDATA); bcd.hImage = WinLoadPointer(HWND_DESKTOP, dllHandle, ID_ICON_BUTTON1) ; bcd.fsCheckState = bcd.fsHiliteState = 0 ; WNDPARAMS wp; wp.fsStatus = WPM_CTLDATA; wp.pCtlData = &bcd; /* add the icon on the button */ WinSendMsg(hwndBtn, WM_SETWINDOWPARAMS, (MPARAM)&wp, NULL); MO> Can anyone tell what OS/2 expects of an application to be properly MO> minimized to the desktop? case WM MINMAXFRAME : { BOOL fShow = !

By the semantic of PM API which returns something other than a boolean, it is impossible to distinguish failure from a "normal" 0-return. In such cases C<$^E == 0> indicates an absence of error. =head1 EXPORTS In addition to symbols described above, the following constants (available also via module C) are exportable.
