Re: int21 move a0-a7
by Jukka Heinonen 10 Nov '02

Patch a1 is wrong and must not be applied. Function 0x0c is really a recursive call and cannot be handled this way. Simple fix would be to call DOSVM_Int21Handler from function 0x0c handler after AH register has been modified (and lets add a detailed comment here this time so everybody understands what 0x0c really does...). Call me blind, but I fail to see how DOSCONF_config gets initialized after patch a2. This set of patches break DOS3Call and calling INT21 using VXDs and DeviceIoControl. I have no idea how much these interfaces are used but I guess this will be fixed in a future patch? Actually the same problem exists with all those interrupt handlers that can be invoked through VXDs. However, other handlers do still work because I have not yet posted patches that touch those handlers. I already know how to fix this issue but I want to work slowly and wait until pending interrupt patches either get applied or rejected before posting anything new. Nogs patches already modify the same files as my patches and I want things to stabilize a bit. Anyway, I don't have time for reviewing patches of this size; those above comments were produced by quickly scanning through the patches and they were really easy to spot. I give up and leave fixing int21 stuff to Nog. -- Jukka Heinonen <http://www.iki.fi/jhei/>

Just so people don't double up, I'll let everyone know I'm working on a CHM viewer. Although I still havn't worked out how I will do the actual HTML viewing, my first priority is to actually build code to parse the file :) I might even ponder implementing a simple IWebBrowser implementation based off of Konq-Embedded/khtml, which would be -extremely- easy... and best of all, light-weight (there is NO way I'm going to install Mozilla/Win32 to have large portions of WINE working, I can't afford the diskspace!) Of course the whole GPL vs LGPL thing is a bit of an annoyance. - Ender

Re: ddraw fix
by Lionel Ulmer 10 Nov '02

> Probably application bug: it called DIB_DirectDrawSurface_Blt > with .bottom > 36000, seems like DirectDraw sanitized the values. Well, I would prefer the fix to be different... For example, it seems to be valid to have negative top values as long as 'bottom - top' is valid (as it seems that DDraw will clip the blit for you). Problem is that if negative top is valid, then bottom being bigger than dwHeight should be valid too. And your patch will thus prevent this case to work. Did you try to simply return an error message (instead of doing the assert) to see if you see any graphical glitches ? Anyway, I am installing Mingw + the DirectX SDKs to do some test apps on a Win2K laptop. I will try this case to see if I manage to see what real Windows does.

This is what I did. the gcc included in dev-c++ is a statically linked that doesn't need the cygwin1.dll to run. But that I looked particularily at compiling cygwin under wine.

Resolving winelib dll dependencies
by Nix N. Nix 10 Nov '02

10 Nov '02

I have an application that consists of a single DLL and the EXE. I have the sources required for the DLL in one directory and I have used winemaker --dll to create the infrastructure for building the winelib dll. It worked. So, now, I have "nix_ctls.dll.so". My problem is that I cannot, for some reason use nix_ctls.dll.so as I would, say comctl32.dll.so . What I mean is this: The sources for the EXE are in another directory. Both are subdirectories of the "project" directory. The name of the EXE is supposed to be "iconmake.exe", if it were compiled under Windoze. So, naturally, my Makefile contains a setting called "iconmake_DLLS". To this setting I have appended "nix_ctls.dll" and to the "iconmake_DLL_PATH" I have appended "-L../nix_ctls". This makes everything work, except the spec thing. This is what that one says: gcc -c -g -O2 -fPIC -D_REENTRANT -DWINELIB -I../common -I. -I/usr/wine/include/wine -o iconmake.spec.o iconmake.spec.c gcc -shared -Wl,-Bsymbolic -o iconmake.so dlg_box.o filedlgs.o mdi_icon.o ../common/helper.o ../common/debugmsg.o ../common/instance.o ../common/dynarray.o mdichild.o toolbars.o iconmake.spec.o -L/usr/wine/lib -lwine -lwine_unicode -lwine_uuid -lm dlg_box.o: In function `PickIconDlg': /home/nix/source/mdi_icon/iconmake/dlg_box.c:396: undefined reference to `InitPicPick' mdichild.o: In function `ChildWndProc': /home/nix/source/mdi_icon/iconmake/mdichild.c:86: undefined reference to `InitEditorWindow' toolbars.o: In function `CreateTheRebar': /home/nix/source/mdi_icon/iconmake/toolbars.c:23: undefined reference to `InitColourControl' Where do I specify "nix_ctls.dll" and the corresponding path "../nix_ctls" in the Makefile so that it will be added to this command as it is added to the command before it, which is: LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/wine/lib:/usr/wine/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:../nix_ctls" /usr/wine/bin/winebuild -fPIC -o iconmake.spec.c -res mdi_icon.res -L/usr/wine/lib -L../nix_ctls -L/usr/wine/lib/wine -ladvapi32.dll -lcomdlg32.dll -lgdi32.dll -lkernel32.dll -lodbc32.dll -lole32.dll -loleaut32.dll -lshell32.dll -luser32.dll -lcomctl32.dll -lnix_ctls.dll -lwinspool.drv -m gui -exe iconmake dlg_box.o filedlgs.o mdi_icon.o ../common/helper.o ../common/debugmsg.o ../common/instance.o ../common/dynarray.o mdichild.o toolbars.o This command works fine, because the library paths and -l settings are all there. Thanks for your help.
