As I understand it, the issue here is that when dinput is being used to capture the mouse exclusively (ie. using DirectInput's Acquire with DISCL_EXCLUSIVE and hence DISCL_FOREGROUND) no other X events should be sent for that mouse, and the cursor's position should no longer affect anything that happens (ie the cursor becomes uninteresting and invisible, and all mouse events are sent back via directinput) which includes not changing focus to other windows, and this state needs to be cleared when focus is lost. If DISCL_NONEXCLUSIVE is used, then the application needs to be able to start reading events from the mouse either at any time (DISCL_BACKGROUND) or only when it has focus (DISCL_FOREGROUND) but in this case the cursor remains tied to the mouse (unless something else has it acquired with DISCL_EXCLUSIVE) and free to move about the screen. I'm not sure from reading this bug if it also covers programs that capture the mouse using ClipCursor, I take it from comment 67 that XGrabPointer is already used to cover this method, as programs using this do not expect to receive movement events from the cursor that would take it outside the clip rectangle. On initial consideration, it seems to me that this interface should be exported from winex11.drv (and alternative display/input drivers) for use by dinput.dll. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb147211(VS.85).aspx (briefly) documents a sample program in the DirectX SDK which exercises the various modes of using the mouse under DirectInput. --- Comment #236 from Paul "TBBle" Hampson <Paul.Hampson(a)Pobox.com> 2009-03-22 11:26:38 --- (In reply to comment #235) > I'm not sure from reading this bug if it also covers programs that capture the > mouse using ClipCursor, I take it from comment 67 that XGrabPointer is already > used to cover this method, as programs using this do not expect to receive > movement events from the cursor that would take it outside the clip rectangle. On looking at the actual code, this is not how ClipCursor currently works. Currently, it just keeps track of the rectangle requested, and if we receive a mouse move event that would take us outside that window, we reset our cusor position (but not the X mouse position or the position reported in the WM_MOUSEMOVE event). This seems to me to have three problems. We don't actually lock the mouse within the requested rectangle, if we don't see the mouse event we can't even clip the cursor (but in that case the cursor wouldn't move anyway) and we report a possibly-unexpected position (outside the clip) in WM_MOUSEMOUSE, which doesn't match our cursor position. I'm not sure that last one is actually incorrect -- from the ClipCursor MSDN page and my recollections of its behaviour, other applications can override your ClipCursor at any time, and do not have to be in the foreground to do so. MSDN says they musn't, though... So in theory any application which relies on being able to do so is incorrect, but conversely no application can rely on its mouse input actually being limited to where its ClipCursor is set. The problem with using XGrabPointer for this (which is what attachment 11735 from comment 82 appears to be doing) is that (as far as I understand from the manpage, I haven't tried this) it also affects what windows actually receive X11 events, which isn't actually true of ClipCursor, although it will produce the correct results for the general use-case of a Win32 program calling ClipCusor with its own window rectangle or client-area rectangle. Anyway, if ClipCursor does have any issues, it probably should be addressed in a seperate bug, or this bug just gets too conflated. --- Comment #237 from Peter Kovacs <legine(a)gmx.net> 2009-03-26 16:20:23 --- >From what I understand the main Problem is that we only have absolute position on the mouse, but for the Game interface we need vector oriented presentation. Right? So I started to look for a way to get Vectored Events from X. I stumbled across XTrap. They talk of Vectorevents ... Cant we make use of that? Sorry if I get the issue wrong. I am quite unskilled in C/C++ and have no Idea of X. I just researched a bit and read stuff that could help. (I did not even ask anyone :P ) So for me this is a shot into the Blue. Excerpt from perso.tls.cena.fr/jestin/Video/Docs/XTrap_Arch.ps.gz Event Vectoring In recording X protocol either for performance measurements or record/playback functionality, it often becomes necessary to capture more than just the core input events (Keyboard & Pointer). Further, it’s often critical to capture events before the determination is made by the server to not deliver the event. Of course, this could be done by a client by configuring "interest" for all events in all windows (includ- ing the root); however, the overhead associated with keeping track of the entire server’s volatile win- dow hierarchy is typically too expensive (especially for performance monitoring clients). As discussed earlier in this document, a ProcVector approach was implemented in X11 for all requests and byte-swapped events. One can only deduce that normal events weren’t vectored for performance reasons. With this in mind and the requirement to capture all events before the server drops any on the floor, the following are excerpts of experimental changes to events.c and devices.c to facilitate event vectoring Hope it helps! Peter --- Comment #238 from Paul "TBBle" Hampson <Paul.Hampson(a)Pobox.com> 2009-03-27 08:21:32 --- I don't think XTrap is compiled into Xservers normally... In fact, a quick browse through the X.org git repo suggests it might not actually be implemented in Xorg, though the headers, library and protocol repositories are there. So I might be looking in the wrong place for the actual extension implemented. But certainly the xserver-xorg-core package on Debian/unstable doesn't list XTrap in xdpyinfo by default. --- Comment #239 from Paul "TBBle" Hampson <Paul.Hampson(a)Pobox.com> 2009-03-27 08:23:19 --- Ignore that, I confused XTrap and XTest.

Like warhammer online other games only have problems with mouse when right or left clic is used. Some games use this function with middle click so I added middle click too. This is a sort of hack, so it's not a really usable patch...

It's a great tool because each install have is own directory with his own register, it's own setup to explain everything, and you can set up a different wine version for each software.

Like, if still there is no grab support, maybe it can work with fullscreen? --- Comment #258 from Jake <Meigus777(a)aol.com> 2009-07-29 20:38:21 --- as anyone tried making a mouse warping program for xorg? When a game receives mouse inputs, we know it receives relative inputs. Why not make a program that could be a taskbar program, and whenever wine is running, it forces the xorg pointer to the middle of the screen? That way, the game would still receive relative inputs, but the actual pointer couldn't reach the edge. It would allow games with menus and FPSes to work at the same time. Unfortunately, a 2d game that didn't make it's own mouse cursor (or any program that didn't) would have the mouse stuck in the middle, but then you could just have a simple like ctrl-F12 or something turn it off. I don't know if it could be done, but a program that placed the pointer in the center of the screen, then say, 20 pixels in a +/- direction would shove it back to the middle would work perfectly. I know someone will get confused/not understand and say "but the mouse would get stuck in the middle of the screen" NO, THIS SOLUTION DOES NOTHING TO WINE. IT WOULD JUST WARP THE POINTER IN Xorg, completely bypassing regedits and patches for wine. For a starting point, probably at least the mouse would need to be moved on a tenth or a hundredth of a second basis, because in FPSes the mouse may need to be moved fast. --- Comment #259 from Jack Diaz <shadow56787(a)yahoo.com> 2009-08-10 21:32:08 --- Raziel recommended using HKEY_CURRENT_USER --> Software --> Wine, Key=DirectInput, String=MouseWarpOverride, Value=force.

I have not tested this on other games yet but it does fix the mouse problem while playing Bioshock. --- Comment #260 from Giovanni Ongaro <joe(a)paco-net.ch> 2009-08-23 16:10:44 --- (In reply to comment #253) > (In reply to comment #252) > > (In reply to comment #251) > > > Please how can I implement this patch?

Did You Activate the Patch by prefixing wine with WINEFORCEMOUSEWARP=yes? Yes this of course affects only the buitin dinput -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 8107] Civilization 4 Warlords fails to start due to XML issues
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org 19 Oct '09

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8107 --- Comment #18 from Patrick Leamon <pleamonhp(a)yahoo.com.au> 2009-10-19 02:08:35 --- Ok, sorry again for more mail but I think I understand it now. Wine only has a stubbed implementation of namespaces: fixme:msxml:schema_cache_add (0x137110)->(L"x-schema:CIV4GameInfoSchema.xml", var(vt 9)): stub So to fix this bug we would have to store the namespaces supplied to this call and then use those namespaces in any xpath we run. The function to do this in libxml2 is: http://xmlsoft.org/html/libxml-xpathInternals.html#xmlXPathRegisterNs However libxml2 doesn't allow a default namespace to be registered for xpath, where msxml3 seems to be fine with that. So even if namespaces weren't stubbed, it wouldn't fix Civ 4 anyway. So to fix Civ 4 we'd need: - non stubbed namespace implementation - libxml2 to support default namespaces for xpath (which I'm not sure they'd accept - http://mail.gnome.org/archives/xml//2001-December/msg00074.html) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

For those (like me) that don't understand namespaces in xpath, have a look here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms950779.aspx for some good examples. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
