After this commit OpenConsoleProxy will be built without a CRT.
This cuts down its binary size and DLL dependency bloat.
We hope that this fixes a COM server activation bug if the
user doesn't have a CRT installed globally on their system.
Fixes#11529
By default from ARM64 architecture projects, `WIN32` is not defined. It
is supposed to be for this proxy stub to work. So I've set it with the
preprocessor for this project.
## PR Checklist
* [x] Closes release build failure after #7489
* [x] I work here.
* [x] Built on my machine.
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
`WIN32` appears to convey two meanings depending on who you are:
- To most of Windows, `WIN32` appears to mean the Win32 API surface and
sometimes the major OS version that goes with it. (Specifically in
contrast to 16-bit Windows.)
- To others, `WIN32` appears to mean a 32-bit processor or a synonym of
`x86`.
This is generally not a problem for a few reasons:
- VS defines `WIN32` in the default targets/props only for the `x86`
processor type. **BUT**
- Windows defines `WIN32` if it's not already defined in both
`minwinbase.h` and `ole2.h` which generally speaking manage to get
compiled into practically everything especially since `minwinbase.h`
tends to sneak itself in somehow through `windows.h` and that's
**THE** include to use the Windows API surface.
- Windows also defines `WIN32` for itself unconditionally and relatively
globally when building itself.
However, it's a problem here because:
- `rpcproxy.h` is the only header included in `dlldata.c`, a file
generated automatically by `midl.exe` in the SDK when making a proxy
stub.
- `rpcproxy.h` only defines its contents for a proxy when `WIN32` or
`_M_AMD64` are found.
- Therefore, it's defined pretty naturally for x86 and AMD64 targets
from VS, but not for ARM64.
- ARM64 support is pretty new and those who are attempting to build for
ARM64 and against the public SDK with Visual Studio for a classic COM
proxy... seems like a relatively unlikely combination.
I will follow up with the Visual Studio, Windows SDK, and MIDL/COM teams
to try to remove this pitfall from the public tooling. But for now, this
is the fix.
- Implements the default application behavior and handoff mechanisms
between console and terminal. The inbox portion is done already. This
adds the ability for our OpenConsole.exe to accept the incoming server
connection from the Windows OS, stand up a PTY session, start the
Windows Terminal as a listener for an incoming connection, and then
send it the incoming PTY connection for it to launch a tab.
- The tab is launched with default settings at the moment.
- You must configure the default application using the `conhost.exe`
propsheet or with the registry keys. Finishing the setting inside
Windows Terminal will be a todo after this is complete. The OS
Settings panel work to surface this setting is a dependency delivered
by another team and you will not see it here.
## Validation Steps Performed
- [x] Manual adjust of registry keys to the delegation conhost/terminal
behavior
- [x] Adjustment of the delegation options with the propsheet
- [x] Launching things from the run box manually and watching them show
in Terminal
- [x] Launching things from shortcuts and watching them show in the
Terminal
Documentation on how it works will be a TODO post completion in #9462
References #7414 - Default Terminal spec
Closes#492
Contains:
- Delegation Configurator that can lookup/edit/save configuration information to registry
- Conhost can lookup the CLSID of a registered default
- Conhost has the ability to handoff a starting visible-window interactive session to the registered default
- Velocity key since this is a big deal and we want to be careful
- IDL for the interface
