In my
Envtool program I use this code to check if EveryThing is running:
Code: Select all
HWND wnd = FindWindow (EVERYTHING_IPC_WNDCLASS, 0);
if (wnd)
{
...
}
else
printf (" Everything search engine not found.\n");
This works fine in ver 1.4.x. But not in v.1.5.0.1294a (x64). So has the ABI changed?
Speaking of the API/ABI; is there an updated SDK for v1.5 somewhere?

Everything 1.5 alpha runs in a
name instance .
To disable this instance, please see:
Replacing my Everything 1.4 installation with the test version
Basically, you need to create an empty file called NO_ALPHA_INSTANCE in the same location as your Everything.exe.
The Everything 1.5 SDK is in development.
(access to properties etc, for now the existing 1.4 SDK works)

Thanks for the reply.
I found some other message for this problem.
I edited Everything-1.5a.ini and changed alpha_instance=1 to alpha_instance=0 .
