Version 44041 Feb 06, 2018
Modified cWinidConvert function to no longer error when the
window associated with the supplied handle or id does not exist.
This is a minor update to correct a long-standing problem for some users.
Please remember that you need a current license to install this version of the extender.
Ya know, I observed several years ago that there was no reason for cWinIdConvert() to do anything with the underlying windows in order to convert the input. I.e., that it was simply textual - converting a number to a Hex string or vice versa is a simple textual operation having nothing to do with what the number or Hex string might represent.
I never understood why the Extender did it the conversion in a way that depended on the handle being valid. As a result, I would often use my own convert UDF that, of course, didn't have this dependency.
It sounds like the Extender has finally been changed in the way in which I have long been arguing for. Well done.
