[Bug 16702] New: wineconsole: the curses backend doesn't work on Darwin
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16702 Summary: wineconsole: the curses backend doesn't work on Darwin Product: Wine Version: CVS/GIT Platform: Macintosh OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: programs AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: wine(a)martin.st Created an attachment (id=18361) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=18361) Sample patch for using select instead of poll The poll system call in Darwin doesn't handle terminal devices, according to this discussion: http://lists.apple.com/archives/Darwin-dev/2006/Apr/msg00066.html This issue still stands in OS X Leopard. Since the wineconsole curses backend currently uses poll for waiting for events, the curses backend doesn't work at all on Darwin. One solution would be to switch the curses backend to use select instead of poll, either completely or only on Darwin. A patch that switches the backend to use select in all cases is attached. This was discussed on the wine-devel list in November/December 2008, in the e.g. following threads: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2008-December/070845.html http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2008-December/070906.html http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2008-December/070919.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.

Probably still present.
Not on 10.6, it isn't. I tried it, and it worked like a charm. I could type and everything. Looks like they fixed the issue with kevent() (and by extension, poll()) not being able to handle device files. They fixed many little bugs like that in Snow Leopard. So, long story short: if you want to use the curses backend, and you don't want to patch Wine, upgrade to Snow Leopard. -- 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.

As pointed out by Charles Davis above, it isn't an issue in Snow Leopard - therefore abandoning this bug. -- 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.
