Detailed Description

CRT - Main entry point of a ttauri program.

This header file will abstract the entry point for a program for different operating systems, and call the tt_main() function that should be defined as a portable entry point of the program.

This header should be included only once by a only a single translation-unit, as it defines main() or WinMain().

The work done by this abstraction is purposefully very limited, its task it to make sure the command-line arguments are split into tokens according to the rules of the operating system's shell. And that the command line arguments are encoded as UTF-8.

Function Documentation

tt_main()

int tt_main	(	int	argc,
		char *	argv[] )

Main entry-point.

Parameters

argc	Number of arguments
argv	A nullptr terminated list of pointers to null terminated strings.

Returns

Exit code.

WinMain()

int WINAPI WinMain	(	_In_ HINSTANCE	hInstance,
		_In_opt_ HINSTANCE	hPrevInstance,
		_In_ LPSTR	lpCmdLine,
		_In_ int	nShowCmd )

Windows entry-point.

This function will call tt_main().

It will use GetCommandLineW() to retrieve the command line in Unicode.

The nShowCmd is used to insert add a command line argument at index 1:

• 1,4,5,8,9,10: (No command line argument added)
• 3: –window-state=maximize
• 0,2,6,7,11: –window-state=minimize
