I just noticed the following lines from UICommon.h in the 3.1 SDK:
#define InformationAlertBitmap 10004
#define ConfirmationAlertBitmap 10005
#define WarningAlertBitmap 10006
#define ErrorAlertBitmap 10007
...are missing from the 3.5 SDK. Much of UICommon.h (3.1) got moved to
UIResources.h (3.5) but a few things are missing, including these #defines
for system bitmap resources. The actual bitmaps are still in the actual OS,
of course.
So, what gives? Are these particular resources deliberately marked 'not for
public use' as of 3.5, or is this just an oversight? I want to use these
bitmaps in forms in my own app but not include copies of them. Is this
still legal? It does work just fine in 3.5.
(No I'm not just trying to save space; I want to use the system resources
for compatibility with future OS releases. If the system bitmaps get
redesigned or more colorful, I want my app to match.)
