Re: [1/4] msxml3: Get rid of ::get_dataType() forward to IXMLDOMNode interface

In this case it seems like introducing new helper return_null_var, adding FIXME to extityref implementation and moving element-specific part to element.c is way to go. Also it would be nice to have consistent TRACEs, so moving them to node-specific objects would be nice. Jacek

It means end of file on Windows, so it's not a good choice. Please don't add magic control chars, do a @space@ style of thing. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

Hi, While running your changed tests on Windows, I think I found new failures. Being a bot and all I'm not very good at pattern recognition, so I might be wrong, but could you please double-check?

[PATCH] Compiling Wine at Ubuntu 10.10
by Gerold Jens Wucherpfennig 17 Oct '10

17 Oct '10

You will need this patch to compile Wine at Ubuntu 10.10, because of the new Xorg Server 1.9. If you still get a compilation error in dlls/winex11.drv you will need to add the flag "-lXxf86vm". With kind regards, Gerold Jens Wucherpfennnig

Re: Set base direction of web site to RTL language for Hebrew
by Yaron Shahrabani 17 Oct '10

Waste of time, there are several objects that should be LTR (like the news list) and some images that need to be flipped horizontally, plus I have already done all the stuff I said, basically this patch is useless...

Ubuntu Package Archive is back!
by Scott Ritchie 17 Oct '10

17 Oct '10

When I switched Ubuntu package hosting to a launchpad PPA (away from manual .deb hosting), one thing lost was the ease of archiving old versions, since Launchpad doesn't provide this. I've written some scripts to manually copy the packages from the PPA to form a new archive and am hosting it at the old location http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/ -- currently it carries all the Wine packages that have been on the Ubuntu Wine PPA since 1.3.3 or so. The main use of the archive is to aid in regression testing - installing from packages is much easier/quicker than recompiling from source, and will help you narrow down the last working/nonworking wine version before doing a proper git bisect. All I have to do is run the script every time I update the PPA with new Wine packages, and it's good. Due to server space issues, I don't plan to archive daily package builds (which is my next project). Thanks, Scott Ritchie

RTL in console windows
by Yaron Shahrabani 17 Oct '10

17 Oct '10

Hi there guys, My name is Yaron Shahrabani and I'm an active translator of Wine to Hebrew. As probably some of you may know Hebrew is written from right-to-left meaning that the GUI and text rendering should work in a reversed/mirror order as opposed to Latin text. Due to some recent work doen by Alexander (Thanks! AJ, great work!), Hebrew is better supported now by wine GUI mechanism but as a translator I ran into some dillemas about the translation of strings that appear in console window, well apparently this is a tough question. Paul (Vriens) sent me 2 screenshots the other day that showed the way Hebrew is handled by the different command line platforms: The first one is the VTE (Virtual Terminal Emulator) which most of us know as gnome-vte or gnome-terminal, this app emulates a command line interface for X11. As opposed to Konsole (The same app only for KDE) gnome's vte cannot handle Hebrew correctly (is there any need to attach bugs or you'll just believe me?). gnome-terminal can show the Hebrew glyphs but they all appear in reversed order, same thing happens for wine apps that present a command line output (such as reg, ipconfig, etc.) when running via gnome-terminal. The other option to display and work with a CLI app is via wineconsole, since wineconsole does not support Hebrew our of the box we have to install the msttcorefonts package in order to do so. At the second screenshot that Paul sent me with the wineconsole screenshot of reg (I translated the app but since I'm not sure how it will work I haven't submitted it to wine-patches yet but I will send it here if needed) Ive seen some blanks with ":" at the end meaning that the glyphs were missing, few minutes later Paul sent me an updated screenshot after installing the missing glyphs, the Hebrew looked absolutely perfect, the only problem was that the semicolon still appeared to the right of the text instead of to the left (where the sentence ends in Hebrew). So my dillema is as follows: Should we continue helping improving the support of displaying RTL languages in wineconsole or should we just ignore the CLI strings like MS did with all of their OSes (Since Windows XP Hebrew is no longer supported officially, meaning that you have to apply 3rd party patches in order to make Hebrew text appear in cmd), Hebrew in command line is only used by some old healthcare services and lots of old games and ancient word processors and database apps (some of them died after Windows dominated the market). Another vital question I want to to this message is to ask our fellow Arabic and Persian speakers what do they have to say about this issue and if their propriatery operating systems has the same issues... I would love to clarify any misclarifications. Thank you all, Kind regards, Yaron Shahrabani <Hebrew translator>
