I need a ddrawint.h header file
by Jonathan Wilson 26 Aug '03

26 Aug '03

I need someone to somehow come up with legal, "I can use this for ReactOS" definitions of the stuff in ddrawint.h from the XP DDK (I can send the MS header to anyone who wants it, obviously just copy+paste from that is not allowed) Asking here since someone on the WINE team might be able to help

CVS stalls
by jeff_latimer 26 Aug '03

26 Aug '03

People, I have just started having problems with CVS update -PAd where it has started to stop at: cvs server: Updating wine/tools/wpp cvs server: Updating wine/tools/wrc cvs server: Updating wine/tsx11 cvs server: Updating wine/unicode cvs server: Updating wine/win32 cvs server: Updating wine/windows cvs server: Updating wine/windows/ttydrv cvs server: Updating wine/windows/x11drv This is consistent though it has been working well for me for some time before that. Is there a solution? Jeff ---------------- Powered by telstra.com

Errors with creating desktop icons in 20030813 release..
by David Orriss Jr 26 Aug '03

26 Aug '03

With the 20030813 release the following error displays to the console when I try to install mIRC 6.03: "err:ddeml:DdeConnect Done with INITIATE, but no Server window available" the mIRC install displays a dialog with: "There seems to be a problem adding mIRC icons to the Program Manager!" Other than that, mIRC seems to work fine. After a bit more testing I'm finding any app that I try to install with this release creates the same error message. Any thoughts? -- David Orriss Jr. Please email me if you want my ICQ/AIM/IM ID's.

user32.rc
by Martin Fuchs 26 Aug '03

26 Aug '03

Hi, I get this error when trying to compile current CVS: D:\osexperts\reactos\lib\user32>make windres --include-dir ./include --include-dir ../../include --include-dir ./../include user32.rc -o user32.coff windres: user32.rc:114: syntax error make: *** [user32.coff] Error 1 What's wrong with this line 114 in user32.rc? Seems, windres does not understand some thing here: LISTBOX "", 100, 5, 5, 210, 110, LBS_NOTIFY | LBS_NOINTEGRALHEIGHT | WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_BORDER | WS_VSCROLL | WS_HSCROLL Martin

About the bin/wine application
by Evalet Olivier 26 Aug '03

26 Aug '03

Hello, I'm using winebuild to make my winegui and it works perfectly. But I'm trying to use the "wine_init" function (from ./libs/wine/loader.c) instead of wine loader. I'm trying to make a new wine loader but it doesn't work. It starts correctly (I can see with the --debugmsg +all) but after, I have an "Illegal instruction" error somewhere in PROCCESS_init. this is my new loader (bridge.c) : int main( int argc, char *argv[] ) { char error[1024]; wine_init( argc, argv, error, 1024); return 1; } This is the original cmd line and the new cmd line: 1)wine --dll ole32=b libbridge.so 2)bridge --dll ole32=b libbridge.so Is it possible to make its own wine loader?

error message fix

I propose this 2 line change; in helping someone on irc, this old message "not found" was confusing them. I changed it to a more generic "could not open", which allows the possilbity of inability to open because of permissions, etc.. -Dante ? dlls/winmm/wineoss/.audio.c.swp Index: dlls/winmm/wineoss/audio.c =================================================================== RCS file: /home/wine/wine/dlls/winmm/wineoss/audio.c,v retrieving revision 1.91 diff -u -r1.91 audio.c --- dlls/winmm/wineoss/audio.c 28 Jul 2003 19:02:29 -0000 1.91 +++ dlls/winmm/wineoss/audio.c 26 Aug 2003 03:04:55 -0000 @@ -524,7 +524,7 @@ return FALSE; } } else { - ERR("%s: not found!\n", ossdev->mixer_name); + ERR("%s: unable to open!\n", ossdev->mixer_name); OSS_CloseDevice(ossdev); return FALSE; } @@ -660,7 +660,7 @@ return FALSE; } } else { - ERR("%s: not found!\n", ossdev->mixer_name); + ERR("%s: unable to open!\n", ossdev->mixer_name); OSS_CloseDevice(ossdev); return FALSE; }

I´ m aware of that, but I thought that it could help to understand how the thing works, as msdn isn't always clear, but it is very obvious that you can't copy/paste the code,that would be too easy.

interesting stuff I have been finding out about DirectX
by Jonathan Wilson 25 Aug '03

25 Aug '03

after investigating the DirectX NT dlls as part of an investigation to see if they would work on ReactOS, I discovered something. The core DX dlls (like ddraw.dll, dsound.dll, dinput.dll and others) dont seem to make kernel-mode or driver/hardware calls directly. Most of it appears to be done via other places (such as winmm.dll, some special thunks in gdl32.dll and others) If my theory is correct (remember though, its just a theory), it may be possible to not only use the directx userland dlls (like ddraw.dll & friends) with ReactOS but it may be possible (if one were to implement the lower-level stubs) in a meaningfull way) to use said dlls with WINE. If it is possible to use native versions of some of the high-level bits, that could really help get more games going... One of the main things that would be needed is a proper implementation of the GdiEntryxxx functions and the DdEntryxxx functions in gdi32.dll, they are the "thunks" that allow DirectDraw and Direct3D to talk to kernel mode. DirectSound & DirectMusic appear to go through winmm.dll to talk to the sound hardware.
