I'm porting code from PPC over to Intel.
I have discovered the same interesting bug with several calls made to the
toolbox call ::PtInIconSuite() in the Intel version that do not exist in the
PPC version.
The bug is that ::PtInIconSuite() returns false when mouse clicks are made
directly on the icon.
Variables viewed in the debugger reveal the mouse click is contained within
the boundary of the icon rect.
Further runtime testing revealed mouse clicks 1 or 2 pixels outside of the
icon boundary sometimes, sometimes, are accepted as true in
::PtInIconSuite().
It is almost as if the inverse of what is expected is being returned by
::PtInIconSuite().
The toolbox call ::GetIconSuite() is used for reading.
Since this same code works fine on the PPC version, this leads me to believe
there is a byte swapping issue with the icon mask (which the documentation
reveals ::PtInIconSuite() tests against).
Since only the toolbox is used to read and process the icon, this byte
swapping (or whatever) issue is contained with in the related toolbox calls
(::GetIconSuite(), ::PtInIconSuite(), etc).
Can anyone confirm this?
Has anyone experienced similar behavior in their code?
The "band aid" for this bug is to call ::MacPtInRect() passing the mouse
point and the rect of the icon. Behavior is as expected, however, the icon
does not highlight when clicked on. (The icon is highlighted when clicked
on calling ::PtInIconSuite() in the PPC version.)
Thanx!
Joe
