Raggiungiamo le 88 miglia all'ora e... torniamo indietro al 1998! ⌚⌛

Nella live di questa sera, un esperimento di "vintage coding": installeremo #Visual #Basic 6 all'interno di una #Windows Sandbox! 🩴

C'è stato un tempo in cui andavano di moda cose come "controlli #ActiveX", Form con "bordi 3D", controllate da "P-Code"... 👽

Unisciti a me sul mio canale #Twitch e partecipa in diretta! 🤗

Speriamo di non modificare il passato creando un futuro... troppo alternativo! 😅

Microsoft 365 將預設關閉 ActiveX?!

在「ActiveX disabled by default in Microsoft 365」這邊看到的消息,原文在微軟自家的站上:「ActiveX disabled by default in Microsoft 365」。 官方公告預設關閉 ActiveX: Starting this month, the Windows versions of Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, and Microsoft Visio will have a new default configuration for ActiveX controls: Disable all controls without notification. 然後既有的 ActiveX…

ActiveX is disabled by default on Office now. Hey, I wrote some ActiveX apps back in the day. It was a security disaster then too.

When Office 2024 launches in Oct, Microsoft will disable ActiveX controls by default in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Visio. ActiveX lets developers create interactive objects to embed in Office documents.

I still giggle when I look at the Ford Mustang Mach-E listings, especially those that have a digital Monroney sticker. The stickers list the seats as "ActiveX".

I mean, we've gone so far as most youths won't know about the hilarious and painful memories of what ActiveX meant back in the 90s and 2000s. ☠️

@kate Not surprising, but still puzzling because flash isn't that old, and I'd say any sufficiently serious overview of web history would mention plugins at least in passing.

And I'm sure some Flash material could count as examples of what not to do.

I mean, even if some of the uses (most notably website navigation menus, and also website text+images content) were bad, one would think it'd still pop up.

I have finally implemented all required #WebView2 interfaces in #C and have now my own #browser control which also compiles on #MinGW.

Without a ready-to-use SDK, 'WebView2Loader.dll` and `CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions` is the secret point to start with.
Fortunately, methods were quite comparable to the old #ActiveX browser control I already did know.

If Microsoft invents a new browser API every 10 years I have at least 5 years before I need to adapt my code to the next standard 😁

@ralf That will become the new #ActiveX controls replacement.
