Finding (or not) the exact number of args
by Gaël de Chalendar June 1, 2001

June 1, 2001

Hi, I'm trying to implement stubs for some missing ordinal functions in shlwapi. Reading the NOTES comment in dlls/shlwapi/ordinal.c I don't know if it is a good idea, but it allows explorer.exe (Win 98) to show its desktop and it is what I'm testing (just for fun. I do not hope to be able to use it right now). Anyway, it uses at a moment or another unimplemented ordinal functions. To implement their stubs, I begins with a lot of args, reducing this number until the function is passed. It seems to work but I wonder if I do not add only problems with this strategy. If I left the stack in a corrupted state, maybe the problem will become visible a lot later... I was not able to find in docs, mails archives or google groups any useful tip to find (simply) the right number of args. Particularly, the URL http://www.ece.cmu.edu/afs/ece/usr/dacut/www/src is dead. So, do I continue ? If yes, in this way or differently ? Thanks for your advices. Gael. PS: I will not read my mail until monday 28.

You're getting the error because FreeType's macros are not being defined by your include files. This is supposed to be the way to work around the fact that the FreeType guys rename their include files with every minor release. freetype/freetype.h should either define the macros or include another file that does so. If you can figure out why that isn't happening, let me know. -- ======================================================================== Ian Pilcher ian.pilcher(a)home.com ========================================================================

PathGetCharType/PathGetCharTypeA
by Dax Kelson May 31, 2001

May 31, 2001

I'm having a failure with a windows app. The application starts, and it asks me to name my project and pick a directory to store it in. When I do so, I get errors such as: fixme:shell:PathGetCharTypeA d fixme:shell:PathGetCharTypeA f fixme:shell:PathGetCharTypeA d fixme:shell:PathGetCharTypeA t And apps reports "such such character isn't valid", and doesn't continue (each time I try again, it generates another fixme message). According to MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/psdk/shellcc/shell/SHLWAPI/Path/PathGetCh… PathGetCharType/PathGetCharTypeA part of shlwapi.h returns one or more of the following values that define the type of character: GCT_INVALID The character is not valid in a path. GCT_LFNCHAR The character is valid in a long file name. GCT_SEPARATOR The character is a path separator. GCT_SHORTCHAR The character is valid in a short (8.3) file name. GCT_WILD The character is a wildcard character. This is the current Wine code: /************************************************************************* * PathGetCharTypeA [SHLWAPI.@] */ UINT WINAPI PathGetCharTypeA(UCHAR ch) { FIXME("%c\n", ch); return 0; } I'm a perl guy, but I'm learning C. Maybe I'm naive, but fleshing out the Wine version of this function shouldn't be too hard it seems. You'd have to go track down the rules. Can some point me in the right direction on fixing this up? Can someone give me a quick hack to make my application work? Many thanks, Dax

On Red Hat 7.1, for example, they're in /usr/include/freetype2/freetype, to distinguish them from the FreeType 1.x headers. The required compiler flag to include the proper directories is in the FREETYPEINCL variable. For example, on my Red Hat system it is set to '-I/usr/include/freetype2'. I tried the following: ft_incl_dir=${FREETYPEINCL#-I} AC_CHECK_HEADER("$ft_incl_dir/freetype/freetype.h",AC_DEFINE(HAVE_FREETYPE_H)) When I run autoconf, autoheader, and configure, I get the following: checking for FT_Init_FreeType in -lfreetype... yes checking for freetype-config... freetype-config checking for /usr/include/freetype2/freetype/freetype.h... no So the AC_CHECK_HEADER macro isn't finding the file, even though it is right there.

The page at http://freetype.sourceforge.net/freetype2/docs/tutorial/step1.html says that you have to include ft2build.h and use macros to include freetype.h, and that other inclusion schemes will get broken in 2.1. I have no idea if this page is up-to-date or if the recommendations have changed again. > We still have to test which macros are defined and only include the ones > that exist, but it does save the work of adding extra autoconf checks. Except with the autoconf checks we control what macros are being defined, we don't have to guess which file to include to get the proper macros. Frankly this idea of defining macros to specify include file names is hopelessly brain-damaged, and the less we have to do with that the happier I will be. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

For you certainly. But it doesn't have to be in CVS for you to use it, does it?

It seems the rule is now to use ft2build.h instead of freetype.h. And this will certainly change in the next release again... so yes, it will be a nightmare if we actually try to use the silly macros. But if we simply bypass them and do autoconf checks like we do for every other package, I think it should work, and be harder to break (though I'm sure the freetype guys will manage to do it ;-) Basically do a AC_CHECK_HEADERS(freetype/freetype.h freetype/foo.h freetype/bar.h) and then #ifdef HAVE_FREETYPE_FREETYPE_H #include <freetype/freetype.h> #endif #ifdef HAVE_FREETYPE_FOO_H #include <freetype/foo.h> #endif etc. Then when they change all the header names again in the next release we can simply add the new names to the list. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Problems with large file support.
by Ludovic LANGE May 30, 2001

May 30, 2001

Hello, A few days ago (15 or 16) the support for large files / 64bits was added to Wine ( files/files.c, server/file.c, win32/file.c). Since that modification, my Wine installation isn't functional any more, and wine throws an exception while setting up the SystemHeap. The exception occurs in heap.c, function HEAP_InitSubHeap, just at the instruction : "subheap->heap = heap;" while the subheap pointer is valid. It seems as if the protection of this memory areay was set to read-only, and that the mprotect() call did not succeed in setting it to read/write. I don't know where the real problem is, but since I found no record of such problem in the lists archive, it may be a configuration problem of mine. However, having not found the solution, I'd like some advices. I also think it could be a problem with my glibc not functionning with 64bits functions. My system is a Linux 2.4.4 / RedHat 7.0 / redhat's glibc 2.2-12 Here is a working trace, before the support for 64bits functions was added : ============================================================================== 0806cb00:trace:virtual:CreateFileMappingA (ffffffff,(nil),08000004,0000000000110000,"__SystemHeap") 0806cb00: create_mapping( size_high=0, size_low=1114112, protect=67, inherit=0,file_handle=0, name=L"__SystemHeap" ) 0806cb00: create_mapping() = 0 { handle=32 } 0806cb00: get_mapping_info( handle=32 ) 0806cb00: get_mapping_info() = 0 { size_high=0, size_low=1114112, protect=67, header_size=0, base=(nil), shared_file=0, shared_size=0 } 0806cb00: get_handle_fd( handle=32, access=00000000 ) 0806cb00: *fd* 32 -> 9 0806cb00: get_handle_fd() = 0 { fd=-1 } 0806cb00: set_handle_info( handle=32, flags=0, mask=0, fd=6 ) 0806cb00: set_handle_info() = 0 { old_flags=0, cur_fd=6 } 0806cb00:trace:virtual:MapViewOfFileEx handle=20 size=110000 offset=0 0806cb00: dup_handle( src_process=-1, src_handle=32, dst_process=-1, access=00000000, inherit=0, options=2 ) 0806cb00: dup_handle() = 0 { handle=36, fd=-1 } View: 65430000 - 6553ffff 36 65430000 - 6553ffff c-rW- 0806cb00:trace:virtual:VirtualAlloc 65430000 00110000 1000 00000040 0806cb00:trace:virtual:VIRTUAL_SetProt 65430000-6553ffff c-rWx View: 65430000 - 6553ffff 36 65430000 - 6553ffff c-rWx 0806cb00: create_semaphore( initial=00000000, max=00000001, inherit=0, name=L"") ============================================================================== Here is the stack trace with support for 64 bits functions (more debug traces of mine.) ============================================================================== 0806cb40:trace:virtual:CreateFileMappingA (ffffffff,(nil),08000004,0000000000110000,"__SystemHeap") 0806cb40: create_mapping( size_high=0, size_low=1114112, protect=67, inherit=0, file_handle=0, name=L"__SystemHeap" ) 0806cb40: create_mapping() = 0 { handle=32 } 0806cb40:trace:heap:HEAP_CreateSystemHeap LLA 0806cb40: get_mapping_info( handle=32 ) 0806cb40: get_mapping_info() = 0 { size_high=0, size_low=1114112, protect=67, header_size=0, base=(nil), shared_file=0, shared_size=0 } 0806cb40: get_handle_fd( handle=32, access=00000000 ) 0806cb40: *fd* 32 -> 9 0806cb40: get_handle_fd() = 0 { fd=-1 } 0806cb40: set_handle_info( handle=32, flags=0, mask=0, fd=6 ) 0806cb40: set_handle_info() = 0 { old_flags=0, cur_fd=6 } 0806cb40:trace:virtual:MapViewOfFileEx handle=20 size=110000 offset=0 0806cb40: dup_handle( src_process=-1, src_handle=32, dst_process=-1, access=00000000, inherit=0, options=2 ) 0806cb40: dup_handle() = 0 { handle=36, fd=-1 } View: 65430000 - 6553ffff 36 65430000 - 6553ffff c-rW- 0806cb40:trace:heap:HEAP_CreateSystemHeap LLA - after MapViewOfFileEx : 1077 0806cb40:trace:heap:HEAP_CreateSystemHeap LLA - line 1081 0806cb40:trace:heap:HEAP_InitSubHeap LLA address = 65430000 - line 478 0806cb40:trace:heap:HEAP_InitSubHeap LLA - line 482 0806cb40:trace:virtual:VirtualAlloc 65430000 00110000 1000 00000040 0806cb40:trace:virtual:VIRTUAL_SetProt 65430000-6553ffff c-rWx View: 65430000 - 6553ffff 36 65430000 - 6553ffff c-rWx 0806cb40:trace:virtual:VirtualAlloc LLA 65430000 00110000 1000 00000040 VIRTUAL_SetProt : base= 65430000 0806cb40:trace:heap:HEAP_InitSubHeap LLA - line 491 0806cb40:trace:heap:HEAP_InitSubHeap LLA subheap = 65430000 - line 518 0806cb40:trace:seh:EXC_RtlRaiseException code=c0000005 flags=0 0806cb40: queue_exception_event( first=1, record={context={flags=00000000,eax=00000047,ebx=4012c0ec,ecx=65430000,edx=65430000,esi=40128e05,edi=00110000,ebp=00000000,eip=400bb7eb,esp=40626dd0,eflags=00010212,cs=0023,ds=002b,es=002b,fs=008f,gs=0000,dr0=00000000,dr1=00000000,dr2=00000000,dr3=00000000,dr6=00000000,dr7=00000000,float={00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000}},rec={code=c0000005,flags=0,rec=(nil),addr=0x400bb7eb,params={1,65430010} ) 0806cb40: queue_exception_event() = 0 { handle=0 } ============================================================================== Any clues are welcome.

some unimplemented COM stuff
by Malte.Starostik＠t-online.de May 30, 2001

May 30, 2001

Hello, I have started implementing a small winelib-program that shall eventually add ActiveX support to the Konqueror web browser. For testing I'm using the Shockwave Flash OCX and experienced some problems due to unimplemented functions and features in winelib. First thing is typelib registration, which doesn't work yet as the debug output tells. Okay, did that manually. Then, for setting the control's properties, I tried the easy way via IDispatch::Invoke(), which calls ITypeInfo::Invoke() and that's only a stub :( I worked around this via evil assembler hacks to call the interface's members as given by the vtable offsets in the FUNCDESC using stdcall convention - unfortunately g++ doesn't support specifying a calling convention for method pointers like HRESULT (IDispatch::*setProp)(BSTR). After getting this to work, I hit the next problem: unimplemented urlmon.RegisterBindStatusCallback and when I use a native urlmon.dll it tries to call shlwapi.154, with native shlwapi it still doesn't work somehow, but that's a different story. Anyway, what I'd basically need to get this to work properly is - typelib registration - IDispatch::Invoke() - RegisterBindStatusCallback() and probably asyncronous bind contexts - probably a "real" URL Moniker, not just CreateURLMoniker() using a File Moniker What I'd like to know is if anyone is already working on any of these and if so what's the status and how I could help getting these implemented. if no one started yet, I'd still like to give it a try. Thanks, -Malte PS: the attached patch fixes urlmon.h not being C++-safe. -- Wars don't determine who's right, only who's left.

WINE server messages
by David Howells May 30, 2001

May 30, 2001

Hello Alexandre, I'm having a little trouble deciding exactly how to emulate the "module registration" functionality in my kernel module. It occurs to me that this might be easier to accomplish with a change to the current wine server message set. My idea is: * Have the server only deal with NT Section objects and views of Sections. * Have no separate module table attached to a process. * Implement NtQuerySectionInformation/NtSetSectionInformation calls (or whatever they're called) as wineserver messages. * Add an extra Wine-specific information class for the purpose of recording the extra module information. * The wineserver process structure can then be changed so that rather than keeping a separate list of process_dlls, they can just keep a list of section views, some of which will be images/modules.

PATCH: GetX11WindowId()
by Nikolas Zimmermann May 29, 2001

May 29, 2001

Hi there, this is my first wine patch. it allows the coder to get the X11 Window Id of a HWND. People ask me why this belongs into x11drv and why i need it. ActiveX support for Konqueror, Malte Starostik (who will post some oleaut and urlmon patches soon) and me are working on this. I need to embed the created window, therefore i need this window id.

All right, I still can't see this bad redrawing , but I can see the menu not accessible behaviour now. I'll try to understand something in this problem this week. Btw, this app does not work at all for me in managed mode, it hangs after displaying the splash screen. (but sm7.exe - version 7.5 and sm99.exe - version 9 both load).

Enabling backing store
by David Hagood May 27, 2001

May 27, 2001

Has any thought been given to enabling backing store on Wine's windows? As it stands now, when you obscure a Wine window, it forces the Windows app to redraw the screen. Many times this is not needed. Perhaps a configuration option to allow certain apps to have backing store on would be useful. I know that up until a few months ago, it was possible to go into wnd.c and change the default from NotUseful to WhenMapped and things seemed to work well. However, the structure of the X driver has changed, and a simple patch is no longer possible.

Because it's entirely data, and it's heavily interdependent, I really think that one file is better.

More wine beginner questions
by Mike Bond May 23, 2001

May 23, 2001

I was just perusing through msvcrt and noticed that in wcs.c there is an implementation of _vsnwprintf, which also exists, verbatim, in it's entirety, in ntdll/wcstring.c. Unless I am misunderstanding the .spec files there appears to be a method of "forward"ing a symbol to an external implementation, such as: @ forward -noimport wcslen ntdll.wcslen Is there any particular reason this was not done for _vsnwprintf as well? There is even a comment in the wcs.c copy saying to mirror any fixes in the ntdll copy. Also, on perhaps a style note, I've noticed some implementations are prefixed by the dll name in all caps, such as MSVCRT_vfprintf, and some are not, such as _wmkdir. Is this just personal style or is there more to these differences? -- TTFN MikeB

Configuration/Announce
by eric pouech May 23, 2001

May 23, 2001

with today's CVS commit (for those who stay up to date with the latest developments), you'll have to modify your Wine configuration to reflect the changes. First of all, your Wine configuration file now needs a WinMM section containing the following: [WinMM] "Drivers" = "wineoss.drv" "WaveMapper" = "msacm.drv" "MidiMapper" = "midimap.drv" Not adding this will print the following message > You didn't setup properly the config file for the Wine multimedia modules. > Will use the hard-coded setup, but this will disapear soon. > Please add a WinMM section to your Wine config file. Note that the above configuration will be shortly required, so don't wait before setting your configuration up Next, you have also to add a key to your registry. To do so, create a sample file (let's call it foo) containing the following text: [HKEY_LOCAL_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\MIDIMap] 989041554 "AutoScheme"=dword:00000000 "CurrentInstrument"="#0" "UseScheme"=dword:00000000 then goto the <wine>/programs/regapi and compile the program the run: regapi setValue < foo that's it Not applying the key in the registry will result in various errors in MIDIMAP_ functions (mainly if Wine is set up to use a native Windows system) Maintainers are welcome to update theirs packages accordingly (default values are in documentation/samples/config & winedefault.reg) Detailed information is available in documentation/multimedia.sgml.

There is no reason to force people to update their configuration file when there are workable defaults that we can use. Ideally Wine should behave reasonably even with an empty configuration file; this is not entirely possible because things like paths don't have reasonable defaults, but forcing people to specify things that we could guess is not user-friendly. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Question on exposing non-windows functions from dlls...
by Mike Bond May 22, 2001

May 22, 2001

I just submitted a patch to wine-patches that provides the implementation of spawnl and spawnlp. I had been hoping to implement execl and execlp as well but found that the underlying functionality that I would need is not exposed outside scheduler/process.c. My question is what guidelines are there, if any, are there to exposing non-win functions, such as exec_wine_binary in scheduler/process.c? Also, from just a cursory glance at exec_wine_binary that I may need to wrap it to do some of the work that fork_and_exec and PROCESS_Create are doing, such as calling DOSFS_GetFullName. I'm not sure what, if anything, the server would need to know about this. -- TTFN MikeB

Anybody know int-31?
by Bob Goodwin May 21, 2001

May 21, 2001

I want to run an application that requires win95 but relys heavily on DOS interupt functions. Specifically it requires interupt 31 which is just a stub in Wine. It appears (from R.B.'s list) that there is no limit on calls to interupt_31-AX=0305 (request the address of (?:the:a) save/restore handler.) That implies more than one thread could have a save/restore pointer. When calling the save/restore handler function, the only parameter passed is a byte in AL to indicate whether to save the current context or restore a saved context. My question is, are there multiple copies of the save/restore function or at least multiple entry points? It seems that this would be the only way of having multiple unique context saves. It would be differrent if a unique `handle' was returned by int_31 instead of a call address. If only one context can be stored at a time, do I need a spin-lock within the save/restore function to keep other applications holding until their turn? Thanks. Bob Goodwin

Re: Networking with Mandrake 8.0 and SuSE 7.1
by Steve Fox May 21, 2001

May 21, 2001

This weekend I upgraded to Mandrake's 2.4.4 kernel from Cooker (since it fixed both my mouse and token ring) and suddenly this problem has gone away (using Notes 5.0.7 and wine-20010305). I'm still planning to go through Mandrake's 2.2.19 SRPM and find which patch messes things up (I can't use a Linus-only kernel because I need reiserfs). I will post again once I have narrowed down the list of suspects. I'm guessing it has to be a common patch since SuSE seems to have the same symptoms.

queue management problem
by eric pouech May 19, 2001

May 19, 2001

after last night move of queue management to the server, one of my test app stopped working. What happens is that it's waiting on a WM_TIMER message, but which is no longer triggered. After some investigation, it turned out that message retrieval did change a bit: - in previous code, if the QS_PAINT bit was set, but no window to redraw was found, then the QS_TIMER bit was tested - current code, returns from the server a WM_PAINT message in any case, and if no window can be found, then we retry the whole loop, and we don't check the timer case for my, the wPaintCount was always > 1, meaning that the QS_PAINT bit was never reset then, I investigated why the wPaintCount was > 1. It seems that when a visible window, needing some redraw, is hidden before the update takes place, then we don't update the paint count (which should be decreased) the attached patch does take care of it (basically, if we find a hidden window with an update region, then we destroy the region, and clear the internal paint flag), but I don't think it's the best place to do it. any better idea ?

You cannot do this with the Win32 API, that's true. And since the native msvcrt is implemented on top of the Win32 API, this means that msvcrt exec functions cannot possibly behave exactly like the Unix ones. What you must do is find out the expected behavior of the msvcrt exec, and implement the same behavior; you should then be able to do this using the Win32 API, since this is how the native one does it. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Documentation: lists interfer with the TOC

If you look at the documentation table of contents you'll see things like: Anonymous unions/structs Unicode 21. C library 22. 23. The 21, 22 and 23 are not supposed to be here. What I noticed is that they appear each time I have an orderedlist or an itemizedlist in the section. If I put them in a para instead of directly at the level of the section then I don't get the extra numbers anymore. So should I go through all the doc to make things look like that? <para> <orderedlist> ... </orderedlist> </para> Hmmm, I don't see this problem in the postscript version and DocBook doesn't say that the orderedlist elements must be in a para tag.

Networking with Mandrake 8.0 and SuSE 7.1

Repost from wine.users since no reply. Thanks for any help. ------------------------- I'm running Lotus Notes 5.04a under WINE with one of the January releases and its been working great for months. However, any release since February does not seem to do reliable networking on my Mandrake 8.0 system. I can occassionally actually get into my inbox and even open up a message, but I've never been able to read more than one. Some cow-orkers using this same setup on Redhat 7.1 do not have this problem, but others using SuSE 7.1 do too. Does anyone have any ideas why only networking would be affected and only on select distributions? It stumps me because all three mentioned distros use glibc-2.2 and gcc-2.96 (SuSE may use 2.95...not sure). On a related note, another cow-orker who is using Mandrake Cooker (development distro) and his own compiled kernel does not have this problem.

POLLERR and POLLHUP are legitimate results, and you definitely have to call the function in that case. POLLNVAL is not supposed to happen, unless there is a bug in the fd management. Or does NetBSD set POLLNVAL when the file descriptor is -1? This wouldn't be correct according to the Single Unix spec. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

DLL separation and PROFILE functions
by Ian Pilcher May 16, 2001

May 16, 2001

DLL separation has been mentioned quite a few times on this list (usually as the ultimate solution to a problem), but I don't think I've ever seen it actually defined. Based on my own misadventures in this area, however, I would hazard a guess that is essentially the conversion of all inter-DLL function calls from OS-based dynamic linking to the Wine DLL loading mechanism. Under this assumption, adding 'IMPORTS = ntdll' to a DLL's Makefile.in file (in order to use one of the PROFILE functions) seems like a definite step backwards. I think that the proper approach is to add the function in question to dlls/ntdll/ntdll.spec and make sure that the importing DLL lists ntdll.dll as an import in its own SPEC file. All of which is wonderful until you consider the following in ntdll.spec: ################## # Wine extensions # # All functions must be prefixed with '__wine_' (for internal functions) # or 'wine_' (for user-visible functions) to avoid namespace conflicts. This would seem to indicate that the PROFILE functions (in files/profile.c) need to have their names changed before they are exported. Is this an appropriate time to go crazy with grep and sed? (For example, PROFILE_EnumWineIniString would become __wine_EnumIniString.) -- ======================================================================== Ian Pilcher ian.pilcher(a)home.com ========================================================================

Does anyone have a problem with the following fix to windows/mdi.c/CalcChildScroll? It fixes a problem for one product but I am not in a position to test it thoroughly. When measuring the union of the children rectangles only the visible children should be included: .. } else if( pWnd->dwStyle & WS_VISIBLE) UnionRect( &childRect, &pWnd->rectWindow, &childRect ); This stops scrollbars appearing and disappearing while resizing apparently empty mdi clients etc. Bill Medland

There is not much to go on in this information. I can't see this problem with any of my 16 bits apps, but maybe none of them use this kind of GetMessage without specifying a window. I'd suggest first that you compile message.c with optimization level O0 : it seems clear that the displayed instruction is not the one responsible for the crash; the crash happens really in *msg = qmsg->msg. Maybe having no optimization could give more accurate information. When you have done that, rerun and enter info reg and info local when the crash occurs. Also a trace with +relay could be interesting but I think that you know that since you post this tip on cemw often enough :-) Gerard

Could someone please doublecheck this. On windoze, does the bitmap in a SS_BITMAP style STATIC control change if you send it WM_SETTEXT or call SetWindowText() on it like it does in WINE? I don't think it does, but I'd like it if someone could check before I start changing things.

Problem with tooltips

Hi, Start any program that uses the common dialog file open dialog (Win95 style) using -managed. Then move the mouse over any of the toolbar icons. Watch a VERY HUGE window manager window pop up displaying the tooltip text in the upper left corner. Reason for this appears to be some changed flags that lets WIN_WindowNeedsWMBorder fail on tooltips. Does anyone know how to fix this? Adding WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW to the tooltip CreateWindow is probably wrong :/ Ciao, Marcus

Missing INT21h functions
by davep May 12, 2001

May 12, 2001

Trying (more in hope than expectation) to run an ancient DOS program under Wine, I get this failure: err:int21:DOS3Call int21: unknown/not implemented parameters: int21: AX 0f9f, BX 005c, CX 0000, DX 005c, SI 008e, DI 005c, DS 107f, ES 109f Sure enough, DOS3Call() has a series of functions, including 0fh, which are unimplemented. Is there any reason why these functions should not be implemented? The win31 sdk doesn't mention any restrictions on which INT21 functions can be used, neither does Schulman. Dave Pickles

__compar_fn_t Linuxism in dlls/wineps/afm.c

I believe relying on __compar_fn_t in dlls/wineps/afm.c is a Linuxism recently added to dlls/wineps/afm.c (and only there), Ian.

win32 binary DLLs -> Unix wrappers?
by Peter Duthie May 11, 2001

May 11, 2001

What I would like to do is take an existing windows DLL for which I have the SDK but not the source, and write/generate a C++ wrapper that accesses the code contained therein, and be linked with existing unix programs. Eg, say I have X.DLL, X.LIB and X.h Is there a way using wine that I can generate wrapper code (say X_wrapper.cc), so that I can link it with a unix program that I would write around the wrapper? Thus I would have the benefits of developing under the unix environment and libraries, while utilising a necessary proprietary windows DLL. Note, native windows applications that use this DLL work fine when run under wine regularly. I cannot find documentation for this in the mailing list archives, or the official docs, although Chapter 5 of the winelib users guide seems to be the right place to look, it appears to not be written yet. Can anyone please direct me to relevant documentation/examples/code? Thanks, -peter
