Re: Make serial fd blocking mode depend on FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED

err:edit:EDIT_LockBuffer no buffer ... please report
by lawson_whitney＠juno.com Oct. 8, 2001

Oct. 8, 2001

Good day! Okay, I reported it, attached is an unexpurgated --debugmsg +edit trace of me trying to open the lcc-win/lccpub/bin/wedit.hlp file from ftp://ftp.mathematik.tu-darmstadt.de/pub/linux/bonnes/lcc-bin-alpha.tar.gz with wine's builtin winhelp program. Current cvs, no windows, no fat nor nt filesystems. Kernel 2.4.10 with devfs and devfsd. [DllOverrides] "*" = "builtin, so, native" I would be happy to make other traces, but probably this is easy to duplicate. Just to add insult to injury, I will attach a backtrace of winhelp trying to work with terminal.hlp (from wfw 3.11, I think). In case anyone is really short on things to debug. Regards, Lawson

dosmem
by Nog Oct. 5, 2001

Oct. 5, 2001

In my quest to get helppc running and working in wine, I noticed that it tries to access the text mode buffer directly (b000, I think). This memory doesn't seem to be emulated in dosmem.c and my exploration into how to implement it were in vein. Could anybody please help? Anyway on another note, to get the program to exectute this far I had to add a hack to vga.c. What the program was doing, was, it waited until the light pen trigger was set, when it read the light pen trigger set (bit 1) from the vga status register (3da) and then it would wait until it was unset again. I've attached a patch to solve this problem, but its definatly not the right way of doing it, anyway see what you think.

OLE File Format Documentation
by Charles Wyble Oct. 5, 2001

Oct. 5, 2001

Hello Everyone. My name is Charles Wyble, and I am working on an open-source library for reading/writing ole files. I want to get all the documentation/source code I can. So far, I have gotten things from: 1)John E. Adams(provided an ole-dump utility) 2)Martin Schwartz's document 3)libole2 4)The Filters Project I was wondering if the wine developers, have any source documentation to share? Also which modules contain the ole source code in CVS? If you are interested in the items I have gathered, I can post them to the list or an FTP/WEB site. ===== Charles Wyble God Bless jackshck(a)yahoo.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

What is the proper way to submit a patch to wine? Do you need a special password to use cvs commit or can you only mail in diffs? How do you make a propper diff (yeah, I'm really new at this)? If someone could just add the needed 'fi' to the end of tools/winelauncher.in I'd be happy too :).

Posic Support For Dos & Mac OS
by Lucien LaCroix Oct. 3, 2001

Oct. 3, 2001

I've heard rumors of projects or programs that would enable Posix in dos, is this possible? There is one project that provides Posix support for Mac that I think everyone should be aware of. The address is at http://www.dsitri.de/projects/mac06/. I think this is an important page because there are many mac Users who would be glad to use Unix and *possibly* run WINE under it's engine. The text below is a quote from thier site. Based on the tools etc. that are given below, if someone could advise me what tools in 8minimum* are needed to compile the source code, then I will attempt it and let everyone know. PC Emulators are getting expensive and the only open-source Mac PC Emu (Bochs) is no longer being worked on, so we are stuck with an old copy. :) Mac06 ("Mac oh six"), is a POSIX library and a system kernel running on top of MacOS. Some features are: * UNIX like file system using HFS with full Finder integration * POSIX libc.a and #include headers, curses library * POSIX shell * commands like ll, cd, cat, xd, echo, find, fgrep, ... * software development package (assemblers, C compiler, linker) for Motorola 680x0, Power PC including AltiVec, Z80, Java Virtual Machine and others * communication package for TCP/IP (telnet, mail, ftp, ...) * runs MacOS native applications written with Think C/Symantec C++/MPW/Code Warrior * HTML based online manual Mac06 IDE is an Interactive Software Development Environment based on the Mac06 compilers with * Project Manager * Multitarget Build/Make function * Builtin Source File Editor * Drag&Drop User interface Do you want to 1. learn UNIX to prepare yourself for MacOS X? 2. have a very simple installation for a UNIX like system? 3. switch between MacOS (Finder) and a UNIX like system without rebooting? 4. run legacy software written for UNIX (C/C++ based on POSIX libraries) on a Mac? 5. have a low-end Mac (68k or PPC Performa) and want a simple solution to run UNIX? 6. have a Performa 5200 or 5300 on which neither MkLinux nor Linux68k will run? 7. do software development for embedded controllers (680x0, PowerPC, Z80, ARM, ...) on a Mac with familiar UNIX tools and POSIX libraries? Then, Mac06 ("Mac oh six"), the POSIX library and system kernel running on top of MacOS can be a solution for you. Features of Mac06 * Direct installation - just download-expand&run * Fully Finder-integrated UNIX like file system (based on HFS) * Shared CPU - processes run in parallel with MacOS * Command line shell based on POSIX.2 standard (currently supports only a subset) * Rich set of standard commands like sh, ll, cd, cat, xd, echo, find, fgrep, tar, uuencode, ... * Extensive HTML based online manual * High performance software development package for ANSI/ISO-C (includes generic assembler for 680x0, PowerPC&AlitVec, Z80, ARM, and others) with flexible make tool (mk) * Full libc and #include headers (mostly POSIX.1 and some POSIX.4 standard compatible) * Communication package for TCP/IP (telnet, ftp, mail, ...) * Full POSIX terminal support (/dev/console, /dev/tty are mapped to terminal windows - have a look at a screen shot) including terminal control (tcsetattr() etc.) * Full "curses" terminal driver library Upcoming: Features of Mac06 IDE * Direct installation - just download-expand&run * Full MacOS Dialog, Window and Menu based application (have a look at a screen shot) * Use Drag&Drop to add source files * Integrated Source File Editor capable of handling large files (>32000 characters) * Project Manager * Multi-Target (Programs and Libraries) projects * allows IMPORT of projects * Build/Make function fully compatible with the mk command System requirements * System 7.0 or later (tested on 7.5.5 and 8.5) * Mac with at least 68020 and 8 MB of RAM (tested intensively on a PowerBook 165 and a Performa 5200) * approx. 15 MB hard disk space _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

No, that's not how it works. Once we add the option we have no way of knowing if someone needs it or not, so we cannot remove it. So I have applied the patch without the option, and then if someone still complains we can add it (also it needs a better place in the config file, this BuildVersion_OLEAUT32 in the [wine] section is ugly). -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

InstallShield 6 again (debuggers requested)
by Ove Kaaven Oct. 1, 2001

Oct. 1, 2001

Here are some kludgy patches (against the current WineHQ CVS) that's supposed to make InstallShield 6 with its stupid interprocess COM sort of work, but it doesn't for some reason, probably because of something else in Wine that's broken... and because of a lack of time, I think I really need some debugging assistance. Most of these patches are too ugly to be submitted to the official wine as-is, I'll clean these parts up later, but probably not before InstallShield has been debugged and actually works with these hacks. To make this run, you need to copy stdole32.tlb from a real windows and put into c:\windows\system. Then run your favorite InstallShield 6 setup.exe and wait for it to crash. --debugmsg +ole is recommended. It crashes for me after about 25 remote method calls. If you find out why, let me know. Please.

DdeConnect errors while running setup.exe
by Ian D . Stewart Oct. 1, 2001

Oct. 1, 2001

Dear Wine Developers, Due to resource constraints (75 MHz processor, 1.2 GB hard drive, 16 MB RAM), we recently replaced Windows98 on our daughter's PC with Linux Mandrake, using the IceWM window manager. It isn't quite as flashy as Windows, but it boots beyond the startup screen, which is more than can be said for Win98. Well, to make a long story short, I've installed and configured Wine following the instructions in the Wine User's Guide. Everything seems to be working properly, but when I attempted to run the setup.exe for 'Jim Henson Muppets Letters: Capital & Small', I received the following errors: err:ddeml:DdeConnect .. but no Server window available err:ddeml:DdeClientTransaction Invalid conversation handle err:ddeml:DdeClientTransaction Invalid conversation handle err:ddeml:DdeClientTransaction Invalid conversation handle fixme:ddeml:DdeUninitialize16 stub calling DdeUninitialize Following the recomendations in the Wine User's Guide, section 3.2 (Installing Wine Without Windows), I re-ran wine with --debug msg +module,+file. I didn't see anything in the trace that jumped out at me, but I've attached it here, just in case it means something to someone else. One last thing. The setup.exe appears to be a 16-bit app, originally designed for Windows 3.1. Not sure if that makes any difference or not. Any help in resolving this would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Ian D.
