Should winemaker be able to handle this
by Bill Medland 05 Apr '04

05 Apr '04

I haven't been following the winemaker stuff so I don't know whether it is supposed to be able to handle this (and is broken) or not. I am having to play with the "build a builtin dll to wrap a linux so" concept again after a year or so since the last time, as discussed in the Winlib manual, chapter 5. I see that winemaker has changed since then. In particular the bit that is not working for my case is the -D, -I, -L and -l options. What I want is to run winemaker to generate the build environment and then do the build. What I used toi have was: #! /bin/bash # Run this script in order to pass the correct arguments to winemaker so that # it can set up the build environment winemaker --nosource-fix --nogenerated-specs --dll --single-target mytarget --nomfc -DMY_SETTING -I$MY_INC_DIR -L$MY_LIB_DIR -lmylinuxso . I see that we don't bother with generating spec files any longer. However I see that the -D, -I, -L and -l options don't find their way into the Makefile these days. Is that by design or a bug? (i.e. do I have to fix winemaker or do I need to look at a different way of doing it) -- Bill Medland mailto:billmedland(a)mercuryspeed.com http://webhome.idirect.com/~kbmed

Hi, Thanks. Would you be able to share details of the changes you did for handling MDI windows?

See the comment in dbghelp.c !! My first thouhgt would be to make a .a lib out of winedump code, and use it in winedump and msvcrt and / or dbghelp. I haven't studied yet the best way to share the code between msvcrt and dbghelp A+

The current code is correct as far as it goes, but it grabs the substring. So when the appdb# is 68 it grabs bugs that for appid 680, 681... 689. It will also grab bugs that just happen to have 68 in the url. My testing with this has been limited somewhat since I have not been able to set up the appdb on my machine but I know enough to know that the code as I have submitted will do what it needs to do. -- Tony Lambregts

Personal tree with interesting patches
by Mike Hearn 04 Apr '04

04 Apr '04

Hi, As I'm pretty busy right now and won't have time to work on the various misc projects I've been working on up until recently for the foreseeable future, I'm checking them into my personal arch archive for people to play with and maybe work on themselves. My archive co-ordinates: http://navi.cx/~mike/archive/2004 mike(a)navi.cx--2004 so, you'd use: $ tla register-archive http://navi.cx/~mike/archive/2004 There are currently only two interesting branches: wine--mainline--0.9: misc patches that were never applied for whatever reason, debug delay, lockwindowupdate (disabled), that sort of thing as i find more patches around my system i'll check them in for safekeeping wine--loadarea-reserve--0.9 execshield/prelink work, see the log message in patch-1 for details on what remains to be done Have fun! thanks -mike

installation program
by Brian Vincent (C) 04 Apr '04

04 Apr '04

On the To Do List (c.4) is an item for having a new graphical Wine install program. Anyone ever looked at Frank Hendrickson's WineTools program? http://franksworld.net/winetools.html It used to be written in some funky language, now it's all shell script. Anyway, if you look at the script (wt210) you'll notice he uses xdialog ( http://thgodef.nerim.net/xdialog/ ) for the GUI. So here's what I'm wondering.. How feasible would it be for Wine to create a new Winelib program (say, wdialog) and use a similar concept as Frank? wdialog would simply replicate the functionality of xdialog. We could potentially fail gracefully into shell mode if Wine can't start. It might be a cheap and simple way to get a GUI front-end. Of course, all this requires sane defaults so Wine can actually run wdialog. Any thoughts? --------------- Brian Vincent Copper Mountain Telecom vincentb(a)coppercolorado.com

Microsoft SDK samples
by Jonathan Wilson 03 Apr '04

03 Apr '04

Has anyone given thought to using the Microsoft SDK samples (e.g. DirectX samples) to improve WINE? i.e. take a particular sample and work away at it untill what you get in WINE matches what you get in Windows. Although I suspect that there are things that the MS samples dont cover :)
