[Bug 47933] New: FoxPro for Windows 2.6a will not print output from scripted dialog.
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47933 Bug ID: 47933 Summary: FoxPro for Windows 2.6a will not print output from scripted dialog. Product: Wine Version: 4.0.1 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: programs Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: JSladek(a)juno.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 65436 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=65436 General format for program sections Access to and use of my databases is all under a program written using the FoxPro language. After opening the desired database and index, I use the command "REPORT FORM <report format filename> TO PRINTER" to send the report to the printer. The "TO PRINTER" clause can be substituted by "TO FILE <filename>" .... however ..... in BOTH cases, while running it in WINE, the output fails with a "printer not ready" error. Additionally, if I replace the "TO clauses" with "PROMPT", a printer selection (or to file) dialog comes up, but I still get the same "printer not ready" error regardless which selection I make. Using the "PREVIEW" option to the REPORT FORM command instead of "TO PRINTER" I can view the entire formatted report, but there is no way that the preview can be redirected to any other type of output. It appears to me that the way the command set is structured, the only way to get a report output is through the "report form / printer" interface. It also appears that the "to file" direction is through that same interface. There were a couple of submnissions concerning this problem in the 2008 time frame. The only solution offered was to adjust tyhe TIME function for faster processors in the FoxPro config file. I tried this, but it has no effect on the problem. -- 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.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47933 --- Comment #2 from Jim <JSladek(a)juno.com> --- Created attachment 65661 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=65661 Terminal Output from start of program to point of failure The terminal output is the same whether it is the report sent to printer (which fails) or report is displayed. The only difference is that terminal output of report sent to printer locks at the time of failure whereas terminal output of report sent to display continues to quitting the process and closing FoxPro with no incident reported on terminal output. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

The same program/process runs through printer output withpout failure in WinXP. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47933 --- Comment #4 from Jim <JSladek(a)juno.com> --- I normally do not print from any other wine programs, but I tested printing from 'notepad' this morning and there is printer output. In terminal, the same "error" lines shown with FoxPro exist are shown with 'notepad'. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

According to PCLinuxOS software testing, FPW totally failed (see bug 50618) in current wine releases due to cessation of 16-bit support above release 4.0.4
It is very likely that there will be no interest in resolving this bug - it may as well be dropped from the queue.
16-bit support was never dropped; it was probably accidentally broken at some point. -- 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.
