Re: ListView fix

Ok, so now that I've got the patch out, there's a weird problem that I've been having with this piece of code. Apply the following on top of my previous patch and you'll get the weirdest traces: --- cut here --- Index: dlls/comctl32/listview.c =================================================================== RCS file: /home/cvs/wine/wine/dlls/comctl32/listview.c,v retrieving revision 1.99 diff -u -r1.99 listview.c --- dlls/comctl32/listview.c 2001/02/28 05:31:02 1.99 +++ dlls/comctl32/listview.c 2001/03/02 23:45:09 @@ -1542,10 +1545,22 @@ item.stateMask = LVIS_SELECTED; item.state = LVIS_SELECTED; + TRACE("nSelectionMark=%d nItem=%d nFirst=%d nLast=%d\n",infoPtr->nSelectionMark,nItem,nFirst,nLast); +#if 0 + i = nFirst; + while (i <= nLast) + { + TRACE("i=%d\n",i); + LISTVIEW_SetItemState(hwnd,i,&item); + i++; + } +#else for (i = nFirst; i <= nLast; i++); { + TRACE("i=%d\n",i); LISTVIEW_SetItemState(hwnd,i,&item); } +#endif LISTVIEW_SetItemFocus(hwnd, nItem); infoPtr->nSelectionMark = nItem; --- cut here --- Now if I click on item 3 I get the following trace: ... trace:listview:LISTVIEW_AddGroupSelection nSelectionMark=-1 nItem=3 nFirst=3 nLast=3 trace:listview:LISTVIEW_AddGroupSelection i=4 trace:listview:LISTVIEW_WindowProc hwnd=1908 uMsg=1006 wParam=0 lParam=405b6c30 trace:listview:LISTVIEW_AddSelectionRange Add range 4 - 4 ... Now, last I checked (i.e. a few minutes a go), 'for (i=3;i<=3;i++) printf("%d\n",i);' prints 3 and certainly not 4. Also, if I'm not mistaken this code is strictly equivalent to the while loop in the '#if 0' branch. Yet the while loop works fine but not the for loop. In a word this looks like a gcc bug to me! $ gcc -v Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.2/specs gcc version 2.95.2 20000220 (Debian GNU/Linux) How do we normally deal with those? -- François Gouget fgouget(a)codeweavers.com

WinMM/MMSystem & registry
by Eric Pouech March 2, 2001

March 2, 2001

I'm currently investigating moving all multimedia setup into the registry as current WINMM/MMSYSTEM implementation is rather close to the WIN3.x/9x model, I started looking at their native implementation. The main goal is to use no longer the hard coded drivers name, but rather get them from the registry basically, it goes like this: /* * The Windows registry settings are as follows: * - the drivers are defined by sets, each set has an index * - the sets are loaded in the set index increasing order * - a set is divided by classes (wave, midi...), and several drivers can be * defined in each class * - the keys are spread into two locations: * HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\MEDIA\%idx%\Drivers\%class%\%name% * where %idx% is the set index, * %class% is the class (midi, wave...) * %name% is the name of the device (which can be different from * the actual name of a the driver's filename (even if, * in lots of cases it's the same)) * these keys mainly describe what to load, and in which order * This key shall also contain some configuration options for the driver (if * needed...) * - each entry under the Services\Class has a corresponding entry in another part * of the registry * HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaResources\%class%\%namen%<%idx%> * Under this location is stored information regarding how to load the * driver (like if it's enabled, PnP information...) */ there are some other keys (like the PnP devices enumeration) which use the index to refer to the driver implementing this under Wine is not too difficult. The hairy part is the configuration (setting up the keys in the registry) since the first step of the configuration (for this scheme) is to get the first unused index, this can be a bit tricky (especially when a registry exists, and has been copied from a native one) the possible solutions are: A/ implement this mechanism and provide an ad hoc tool for this purpose. The hard part is, in some cases, that the data to add to the registry have to be determined at installation time: the number of DSP available for the wave output, or the list of MIDI playback devices (synthesizer, midi out...) - current WineOSS implementation gets its name from the kernel -. A1/ create a specific (winelib) tool to take care of it A2/ make use of Windows installation capabilities (setup API) and provide a .INF file for each. I'm not quite sure that's feasible with the semantics of the API (mainly for the naming issue described above) B/ do not implement this mechanism B1/ provide a Wine specific easy set of keys B2/ same as above, but upon startup, Wine (or winmm/mmsystem) partially recreates the native keys as needed I'd rather go the A1 or B1. As of today, the only drawback of B1 is that some native DLLs (multimedia control panel, the midi mapper) will not work. I haven't (yet) run against a program using this poorly undocumented set of features (which, of course, will not work on Win2k with WDM in place). any comment is welcome.

file descriptor problems
by Rein Klazes March 2, 2001

March 2, 2001

Hi, With today's CVS I get problems with the Agent newsreader after 0.5 to 1 hour of use. Sometimes I get this: > wine client error:0x8063890: no fd received for handle 264 and the wine service tread has exited. In other cases the program shows a message box showing: cannor write <filename>. DOS error 4. and the program goes crazy. Dos error 4 means "too many files open", which seems related to the first message. Rein. -- Rein Klazes rklazes(a)casema.net
