by William Lahti 24 May '04

I am trying to implement EnumCalendarInfo and would like to know if any locales have multiple calendars, where the settings for the extra calendars would be in the nls file, and if any calendars have their own seperate file.

additional download for winehq download page
by Ivan 24 May '04

24 May '04

This patch adds lots of download to the winehq download page. Sending only to wine-devel for now, as I'm not sure they are all needed, but they could all be useful in some situation or another. Comment welcome. Ivan. p.s. Maybe we should have a download page just for m$ components?

There is no need to define the Drives registry key, everything should work fine without it. If something doesn't, that's a bug. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

The corresponding Microsoft test takes hours to complete. If time is an issue, then the test should be split up into a quick test and an exhaustive test. Also, volume and pan tests on primary and secondary buffers is not the same thing as 3D. They just happen to be similar now because we don't support hardware acceleration yet.

failure report: Astrum installer
by Dan Kegel 23 May '04

23 May '04

Looking through the debug log for my failed attempt to install picasa, I saw that the installer it uses is called Astrum; see http://www.thraexsoftware.com/aiw/ A free demo of that installer is downloadable from http://www.thraexsoftware.com/download/aiw.exe Predictably, it doesn't run under Wine, either; it also puts up a dialog box at the beginning (which unhelpfully doesn't show any text), and if you click "ok", it just puts up the same dialog box again. I tried for a while to figure out WINEDEBUG settings that would provide some illumination about what's wrong. Best I came up with was WINEDEBUG=warn+all,+dialog,+text wine aiw.exe > log 2>&1 in hopes I could tell what the missing text was, but no dice. Given that this is a free-ish installer, and more apps might start using it than just Picasa, maybe it's worth looking into... - Dan -- My technical stuff: http://kegel.com My politics: see http://www.misleader.org for examples of why I'm for regime change

I discussed abstracting WINE user32/gdi32 and creating a Win32k.sys implementation for Wine so we could try to hide the x11drv behind it but at the time Alexandre does not seem very interested in the idea. The way it stands right now while WINE is more correct in its functionality its implementation is not 100% correct for the design we are trying to replicate. If we can change this in WINE, then sure lets share even more and stop duplicating work. Thanks Steven __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

tlhelp32 problem
by andrejoh＠c2i.net 23 May '04

Hi! While trying to get Anarchy Online working with Wine, I discovered that dynamically getting symbols from the running program does not work properly in Wine. The attached example code shows the problem; when running in Windows, I get this output The mangled name is "?Instantiate(a)MyTestClass@@SAPAV1(a)PAVObjectArchive_c@fun@@@Z" Searching in "ntdll.dll" Searching in "kernel32.dll" Searching in "Factory.dll" Searching in "MSVCP60D.dll" Searching in "MSVCRTD.dll" Searching in "Test.dll" Found the function at 00321023 Creating a new object! The returned text is "Found the right one!" whereas when running this in Wine, this is the output [andrej(a)rivendell tst]$ PATH=$PATH:$PWD wine tst The mangled name is "?Instantiate(a)MyTestClass@@SAPAV1(a)PAVObjectArchive_c@fun@@@Z" Searching in "" Searching in "" Searching in "" Searching in "" Searching in "" Searching in "" Searching in "" Searching in "" The returned text is "<function for "MyTestClass" not found>" If the test for a ".dll" ending is removed (as can be seen in the output, the name returned is empty, so it will always fail), this is the output [andrej(a)rivendell tst]$ PATH=$PATH:$PWD wine tst The mangled name is "?Instantiate(a)MyTestClass@@SAPAV1(a)PAVObjectArchive_c@fun@@@Z" Searching in "" Searching in "" Found the function at 0x408a9023 Creating a new object! The returned text is "Found the right one!"
