Okay, then that has been discussed. By the way, what about David's second patch? Was there anything wrong about it or why isn't it in the tree, yet?

Well, it shouldn't even be a dll, just a folder were put in all the d3dx9 code and let the d3dx9_xx.dlls just export the functions they need. I don't know of how much the makefile system is capable, but maybe we can put all the d3dx9_xx.spec files in the same directory to improve overviewability, I don't like these 13 dlls/d3dx9 directories that much :D Anyways, what are the concrete differences between the d3dx9_xx.dlls?

In my opinion it isn't really needed as the list would become a lot longer and this makes it harder to maintain. If we would continue this way we would easily have to add two dozen additional mobile cards which are now handled as their desktop equivalents. Roderick -- Psssst!

Re: [4/4] WineD3D: Enabling too many lights is silently ignored

IIRC you can create lots of lights with SetLight(), but only enable MaxActiveLights at the same time with LightEnable(). I guess calling LightEnable on a light that isn't created first is simply ignored. I thought that at least for ddraw I created a test for this back when I started working on wine, but perhaps I never sent it in. :-/

Some thoughts about next GSoC
by Kai Blin 30 Nov '07

30 Nov '07

Hi folks, from what we discussed at the last WineConf, we wanted to work on our procedures for the Google Summer of Code a little. I'm sending this email in hope to start some discussion about this, so we have it out of the way until the 2008 version is announced so we can talk about proposed projects then. The goal of Wine's SoC procedures should be to get high-quality proposals that can be completed by the student proposing the project in the time allocated for GSoC, so both scope and difficulty should be checked. I haven't been on the mentoring side of things, but my understanding from the WineConf side of things was that we had some problems getting this right the past years. I was thinking about strongly encouraging people to post their project proposal to wine-devel prior to applying, so more developers can have a look at it and see if it's doable or not and offer suggestions. I know some projects did an introductory quiz to figure out the student's coding skills, I'm not convinced the knowledge needed for Wine can be tested in a quiz. What do you think? Another thing that didn't turn out too well last time is that it was really hard to figure out what was going on during the summer. I have a few ideas on how we could address this. Lots of other projects had their student write a weekly public progress report. I think we should require the same. This will probably help keeping people updated, and might help spotting problems early. According to the wiki page, we already require a post-mortem report on the project, however I can't remember seeing much of those this year. We should make sure those are written next time. We might think of a better name for the report, post-mortem sounds like the project is dead after the summer, we want people to keep working. Last year, some of the students set up a public git repo on repo.or.cz. I was thinking about making that a requirement for next year. This would allow people to review work in progress. Comments?

re: shell32: symlink user's profile shell folders to xdg well known directories [2/2] (try 3)
by Dan Kegel 30 Nov '07

30 Nov '07

I feel like a broken record, but: some apps don't like following symlinks, and the native Windows way to configure what the "My Foo" folders point to is called shell folder redirection; These are documented at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/242557 among other places, and I think Wine supports these registry settings. Is there any reason we don't want to use these instead of symlinks? - Dan

d3dx8 [patch 1/10] Implement D3DXPlaneFromPointNormal
by tony.wasserka＠freenet.de 30 Nov '07

30 Nov '07

Anyways, where should we put the d3dx9 code? I mean, we have 13 folders to choose from.. Perhaps It'd be better if we create a new dll (or at least directory) called d3dx9 were we implement all d3dx9 stuff and let the other d3dx9_xx dlls just call these functions? This would improve the clarity of the code structure, so that people that don't follow this discussion can also understand what we're doing ;-)

Doing it there would make sense as winbase.h is where HeapAlloc and friends is defined.
