Subject: [ruby-dev:49889] [Ruby trunk Bug#12987] Win32 API.rb can not call function without argument.

Issue #12987 has been updated by Usaku NAKAMURA.


For workaround, you can use '' instead of '0'.

----------------------------------------
In Win32API.rb, it is not possible to call a function without arguments.
I could avoid it for the time being if I did the following (against trunk).
