Hi, as suggested I send this patch for a discussion. This is a workaround for this bug http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11584 . I don't know if this patch is the right way to fix the problem. Could someone with more knowledge have a look at this? Cheers Rico

Re: website: add links to most popular active Wine forums

If you know of another active Wine forum - especially a non-english one - please let us know so we can add it to the list. (Email to dank(a)kegel.com would do.) Русский http://www.wine-forum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=44 Tom P.S Sorry, the forums at http://www.wine-forum.org/index.php were not popular enough to make this cut, may I ask how many users = popular? The forum has 750+ registered users in just over three months... 1, 2, 5 thousand??

Note that it is applications that Wine targets. The description is quite non-precise. Who defines the policy of what should be run and what shouldn't? What I am trying to explain, is that, once something is designed to be compatible with Windows API, it should be compatible with at any case at any layers. For example, there is no sane reason in the world that VC++ should > always work under Wine, considering the deep knowledge of Windows that > is built into VC++.

What I would like to see in wine, is a little more abstractionist things, for example, file system filters support. NDIS IM filters, TDI providers, WFP, Kernel sockets and other things.

Re: [Wine] Windows Kernel & Executive implementation
by Volodymyr Shcherbyna 23 Feb '08

RegMon was just one of the examples. But basically, RegMon uses vxd driver for Windows 9x. For XP it uses NT driver which hooks SDT. On Server 2003 it uses legacy registry notification API. UMDF support started from XP. It does not cover 2k. Also, UMDF is just a part of WDF. However, I think it will be good to implement basic things, like NT drivers support. 2008/2/23, Dan Kegel <dank06(a)kegel.com>: > > Volodymyr Shcherbyna <v_scherbina(a)mvps.org> wrote: > > >>>[many apps use helper device drivers, e.g. RegMon, FileMon, TDIMom] > > > > http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/ntoskrnl.exe/ntoskrnl.c > > > Unfortunately, that code just do stubs, and it is not actually executed > in > > kernel mode. > > > The current ntoskrnl.c is enough to run a few apps. > It's not intended to run arbitrary NT drivers. > > Now, RegMon uses a VxD, and I don't think we're ever planning on > really supporting those.
