SiOpen() first argument, char *pAppName

Post by Blank Xavier »

The first argument to SiOpen() - in the Win32 example, the same name is used for the window class and the window title.

The docs say "the application name".

What's the first argument supposed to be? is it an arbitrary string, the window class, the window title, or something else?

Ah - I found the answer, after a search, in an existing forum post (the topic title was so different to what I was looking for I hadn't looked in that topic).

(The answer is; it's an arbitrary string. It's apparently should/can relate to your configuration file application name - but that's it - it should have nothing to do with functionality).
