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?

GSoC proposal
by Cheer Xiao 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

Hi all, I opened bug 30255 [1](which, unfortunately, was just marked duplicate as bug 19263 [2]), which I believe is a long-standing issue. Simply put, uxthemes has some performance problems, and consequently UI rendering with theming enabled would lag a lot. Since I'm also planning for GSoC, I would like make that my GSoC proposal and fix the bug myself. Also, there are failing tests regarding dlls/uxtheme - running dlls/uxtheme/tests/uxtheme_test.exe.so gives 11 failures out of a total of 56 executed tests. I can try to fix that too. With all of these, this may still be a trivial proposal. To make it less trivial :), I would also like to work on the gtk+ theming bridge [3], once the performance issue is fixed. I also have another alternative proposal, i.e. to implement full IME support so that Windows IMEs can be used on Linux. That would consists of basically two parts - the Win32 API (which, after a brief inspection, seems to be at least partly implemented) to handle the Windows part and a daemon to handle the Linux part (half like win32's ctfmon.exe and half like ibus-daemon). But I haven't investigated much into that yet, so I don't have much to say. Still, your suggestions are very welcome. And a few words about myself: I have been one of the primary maintainers of simplified Chinese translation of Wine during the past few years - so I have already got my name into AUTHORS ;-). I know quite some C - read K&R thoroughly, plus experience in a few small projects; I also know the Git workflow well. I'd love to help fix bug 10000 so that Unix can take over the world ;-). Your suggestions and ideas are very welcome. 1. http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30255 2. http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19263 3. http://wiki.winehq.org/ThemingSupport -- Regards, Cheer Xiao aka. xiaq

My GSoC 2012 proposal
by Lucas Zawacki 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

Hello all, First of all, I'll introduce myself: I'm Lucas Fialho Zawacki a Computer Science undergrad at UFRGS university in Brazil. I have worked with Wine in GSoC 2011 (http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/project/google/gsoc2011/lfzawacki/8001) and pretty much enjoyed the experience. I'd like to work again with Wine for this year's GSoC and with this email discuss some possible projects. *Joystick Configuration Tool* This seems like a natural project for me to work since I'm very familiar with DirectInput and have access to some josysticks, including force feedback. I'm not sure about what "Support system joystick calibration" is though. Is it related to bug 24235 ? *Scons Wine* I think this could turn out to be very worthwhile project, but there's little documentation about it. To make Scons aware of Winelib would it be enough to create an environment that uses the winelib compilers, libs and includes? Then it would be a question of programatically generating the build script, much like winemaker does for the makefile. I've also been looking at Winemaker and trying to convert some visual studio projects from random google code repositories with moderate success. As a part of this project I could test it with numerous samples, e.g Nehe tutorials (http://nehe.gamedev.net/) and with assorted open source projects targeting windows, and make these just work with Winemaker. *Winetricks* Other ideas fall in winetricks territory so I don't know if they constitute a valid Wine GSoC project, but they're: * Regression Testing GUI. Help a user download the repository, compile wine and run assisted or automated bisections. * Compatibility and exchange of installation recipes with other frontends like PlayOnLinux * Winetricks and AppDB integration. A way to mirror in AppDB the dependencies and workarounds employed by winetricks recipes. I wait for feedback. I'm also available at IRC if someone wants to discuss this in more depth.

Regarding Gsoc 2012
by prateek papriwal 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

I am Prateek Papriwal, a second year undergraduate student persuing Bachelors in Technology in the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, in the department of Electrical Engineering. I love programming in C . I was told about GSOC 2012 by one of my seniors, who saw passion for coding in me. I traversed through the previous year list of organisations and thereby Wine caught my attention , through which we can install and run windows appplication in other operating systems as we do in our windows . For the last few weeks i have been going through the working of Wine and have gone through some of its modules.i am also using wine for running uTorrent application. I have done a course CSL 101 "Programming in C" in which i have several algorithms using C . I have gone through the ideas page and found "System Management - WMI support" very interesting . Relevant Courses taken: CSL 201 : Data Structures And Algorithms -- Object Oriented Programming, Trees Implementation , Sorting Techniques , Graph Theory ... *Involvement in Open Source Organisation* CMU Sphinx(SVN Repository) RAXA JSS EMR(Git Repository) -- https://raxaemr.atlassian.net/wiki/display/RAXAJSS/Voice+Module+Project Sympy (GIT Repository)
