This PR marks the following Win32 functions as dynamic:
OpenThemeDataForDpi
1GetSystemMetricsForDpi
GetThreadDpiAwarenessContext
SetThreadDpiAwarenessContext
SystemParametersInfoForDpi
It's enough to make SWT run on Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012, and Windows 8.1.
The Java code that uses these functions already checks if the OS version is above the minimum required, so no actions should be taken there.
1Although the
OpenThemeDataForDpi
is documented to be available since Windows Server 2016, it's not available there, or at least not in the LTS version.Addresses and fixes #1252 and possibly many other issues related to running SWT apps on older versions of Windows.
