1	Size of this type has been changed from 4 bytes to 8 bytes.	The fields or parameters of such data type may be incorrectly initialized or accessed by old client applications.

	Change	Effect
1	Field threshold has been added to this type.	Size of the inclusive type has been changed. NOTE: this field should be accessed only from the new library functions, otherwise it may result in crash or incorrect behavior of applications.
2	Size of this type has been changed from 8 bytes to 12 bytes.	The fields or parameters of such data type may be incorrectly initialized or accessed by old client applications.
3	Field const_type has been renamed to windop.	Renaming of a field in data type may indicate a change in the semantic meaning of the field.

	Change	Effect
1	Field unnamed8 has been added to this type.	NOTE: this field should be accessed only from the new library functions, otherwise it may result in crash or incorrect behavior of applications.
