* How is GUI related to this?

:"WinAPI exposes functionality; not [the underlying structure of the Windows systems]" Given that a lot of the Win32 API was implemented in Windows 9x, the structure of which is a bit different from that of Windows NT, it definitely doesn't expose the "underlying structure" of Windows.
:"WinAPI does not '''force''' developers to handle low-level stuff; it '''allows''' them to do low-level stuff" Perhaps what they meant is that if you use ''only'' the Windows API, you have to do the low-level stuff yourself.
:"How is GUI related to this?" Perhaps they're saying that doing the low-level GUI stuff is more work than doing it elsewhere. But a citation for all of that would probably be called for here. [[User:Guy Harris|Guy Harris]] ([[User talk:Guy Harris|talk]]) 00:15, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
