Re: passive grabs on Win32

["Valeriy Onuchin" <Valeri Onoutchine cern ch>]

Hi gdk-devel,  just FYI:

I implemented gdk_button_grab under win32.
Modified files:
/gdk/src/gdk: gdk.def gdk.h 
/gdk/src/gdk/win32: gdkevents-win32.c gdkprivate-win32.h  gdkwindow-win32.c 

It can be accessed via http://root.cern.ch/root/CVS.html

 This version of XGrabButton is simplified one:
  - modifiers not checked (be done  asap)
  - confine_to not used
  - cursor not used (be done asap)
  - keyboard_mode,pointer_mode - asyncronous
 - GDK_SCROLL - "automatically grabbed"

Regards. Valeriy
