How to disable aero effects in C# .NET or C++ Win32 ???
This is my test code in C/C++, but only works if my app is runnig
#include <dwmapi.h>
int main()
{
DwmEnableComposition(DWM_EC_DISABLECOMPOSITION);
while(true);
//...
return 0;
}
//LINK dwmapi.lib
Thanks
Edit: i figured it out
#include <Windows.h>
#include <dwmapi.h>
int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hI, HINSTANCE hP, PSTR str, int c)
{
DwmEnableComposition(DWM_EC_DISABLECOMPOSITION);
MSG msg;
ZeroMemory(&msg, sizeof(MSG));
while(GetMessage(&msg, 0, 0, 0))
{
TranslateMessage(&msg);
DispatchMessage(&msg);
}
return 0;
}
//Memory: 314KB
//CPU: 0%
This should work:
[DllImport("dwmapi.dll", PreserveSig = false)]
public static extern int DwmEnableComposition(bool fEnable);
static void Main(string[] args)
{
DwmEnableComposition(false);
// Your application here.
}
