wine-users down?
by Francois Gouget 02 Jun '01

02 Jun '01

Hi, I didn't receive any message on wine-users since May 30th. Is the mailing list down or is it a problem on my end? There's been many messages since then on the newsgroup. Btw, why is the link to the wine-users archive disabled on WineHQ? (http://www.winehq.com/dev.shtml#ml) I found wine-users archives via Google: http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-users/ And I see in the mailing list archives that there's no message since May 30th either. Looks like a mailing list problem to me... Last question (for this email...): Why do the mailing list archives point to the Integrita archives rather than the WineHQ archives? Is there an advantage of one over the other? -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)free.fr http://fgouget.free.fr/ I haven't lost my mind, it's backed up on tape around here somewhere...

AnimateWindow() constants?
by Bobby Bingham 02 Jun '01

02 Jun '01

I am about to implement the AnimateWindow() function, but I don't have up to date windows headers. I did some trial and error on a win98 box and came up with what I think are the correct values, but could somebody check? AW_SLIDE 0x00040000 AW_ACTIVATE 0x00020000 AW_BLEND 0x00080000 AW_HIDE 0x00010000 AW_CENTER 0x00000010 AW_HOR_POSITIVE 0x00000001 AW_HOR_NEGATIVE 0x00000002 AW_VER_POSITIVE 0x00000004 AW_VER_NEGATIVE 0x00000008 I'm pretty sure about all of them except AW_BLEND because win98 doesn't implement it. Thanks in advance Bobby Bingham uhmmmm(a)ameritech.net

Finding (or not) the exact number of args
by Gaël de Chalendar 01 Jun '01

01 Jun '01

Hi, I'm trying to implement stubs for some missing ordinal functions in shlwapi. Reading the NOTES comment in dlls/shlwapi/ordinal.c I don't know if it is a good idea, but it allows explorer.exe (Win 98) to show its desktop and it is what I'm testing (just for fun. I do not hope to be able to use it right now). Anyway, it uses at a moment or another unimplemented ordinal functions. To implement their stubs, I begins with a lot of args, reducing this number until the function is passed. It seems to work but I wonder if I do not add only problems with this strategy. If I left the stack in a corrupted state, maybe the problem will become visible a lot later... I was not able to find in docs, mails archives or google groups any useful tip to find (simply) the right number of args. Particularly, the URL http://www.ece.cmu.edu/afs/ece/usr/dacut/www/src is dead. So, do I continue ? If yes, in this way or differently ? Thanks for your advices. Gael. PS: I will not read my mail until monday 28.

Without it, Myst works fine. Duane

Can MAPI be directed to sendmail from a Windows app on Wine ?
by Steve Ball 01 Jun '01

01 Jun '01

I am running a windows voicemail server under wine and it runs extremely well, but I believe there is no MAPI support in Wine, and the voicemail server complains that there is no MAPI provider. I would not want to install a Windows email client even if I thought I could use MAPI, and would much prefer to use sendmail as the MAPI sender. I don't think it would be difficult to write code that would produce a sendmail mail message from a Wine stub, but I cannot find where the MAPI support goes and I know very little about MAPI under Windows, since I have done very little Windows programming. Has anyone done this before, or could anyone direct me to the hooks in Wine, and preferably some information on how MAPI works in Windows apps. The Wine project is a fantastic achievement, I hope that I can give something back. Steve Ball

You're getting the error because FreeType's macros are not being defined by your include files. This is supposed to be the way to work around the fact that the FreeType guys rename their include files with every minor release. freetype/freetype.h should either define the macros or include another file that does so. If you can figure out why that isn't happening, let me know. -- ======================================================================== Ian Pilcher ian.pilcher(a)home.com ========================================================================

I still don't see why you want that. The fact that the section list is in the client or in the server is orthogonal to the fact that we maintain a list of modules. If you have a list of mapped views in the server you can simplify the module list a bit by making each module point to the view instead of the backing file, but you still need a module list to send debugger events and do toolhelp snapshots. You could of course hide the module list inside the section list by adding some magic flags to the section descriptor, but all it changes is that you then need to walk the whole section list to retrieve the modules; I don't really see the point. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com
