There is nothing looking like a SetWindowPos call between WM_INITMENU and WM_INITPOPUPMENU, yes. But as Alexandre Julliard was pointing, it does not mean that something like calling NC_HandleNCCalcSize is done. >I'm wondering why menu->Height == 0. I'll investigate it. height = 0 because at some point the menu has been changed; this is a Wine flag to signal that the menu dimensions have to be calculated again. The problem with my test app without my original patch is that the menu sizes are not calculated at this point so the mouse clicks are ignored Btw, I have downloaded several of the availables app on your web site and I don't see anything wrong with menus; IIRC I have tried 7.5 for Win3.11, and trial versions 8 and 9 (32 bits). Is it with the main menu that you see this problem ? Gerard

It's here so that you can specify extra flags that configure doesn't know about, by doing OPTIONS=3D-Dfoo ./configure. This can be useful in some cases. --=20 Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Also all this data must be constant and in a read-only section, it's eating 400k of data space right now. I'm guessing that you have a script to generate all this; could you please consider submitting it? This way other people can make changes too. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

That's the same kernel problem that plagues Lotus Notes (If I've understood correctly the message in German ;-) Lotus Notes will die with the same problem if you use a SuSE 7.0 with SuSE kernel 2.2.18 (Mandrake kernels have the same problem, according to other people here) If you compile the kernel yourself starting from ftp.kernel.org's sources, all is well (at least for Notes). I didn't try SuSE Kernels 2.2.19 / 2.4.2 however. Ciao, Roberto.

Strange Wine Problems
by Josef.Wegner＠t-online.de May 25, 2001

Hi, I have some strange errors with wine the last few weeks. Everytime I try to start an application (mainly Ultima Online and Baldur's Gate) wine crashes (stops) with this errors: >wine client.exe For language 'german' several language ids were found: de_DE - 0407; de_CH - 0807; de_LU - 1007; de_LI - 1407; Instead of using first in the list, suggest to define your LANG environment variable like this: LANG=de_DE Protocol error:0x8071580: read : Die Ressource ist zur Zeit nicht verfügbar fixme:dsound:IDirectSoundImpl_SetCooperativeLevel (0x403938fc,00000138,3):stub fixme:pthread_kill_other_threads_np For language 'german' several language ids were found: de_DE - 0407; de_CH - 0807; de_LU - 1007; de_LI - 1407; Instead of using first in the list, suggest to define your LANG environment variable like this: LANG=de_DE Protocol error:0x8067660: read : Die Ressource ist zur Zeit nicht verfügbar Beendet Protocol error:0x8075258: read : Die Ressource ist zur Zeit nicht verfügbar I don't know what the problem is. My first thought was that I have problems with my sound drivers (Alsa 0.5.11) , so I tried the kernel emu10k1 driver and after that I loaded no sound module. All with the same result. The only other thing I did with my linux installation was upgrading to a 2.2.18 kernel. My system specs: Latest wine cvs SuSE Linux 7.0 All updates from Suse.com (new glibc 2.1.3) Kernel 2.2.18 (SMP) Alsa 0.5.11 KDE 2.1.1 Xfree86 4.0.3 (Ximera on) Dual PIII 500Mhz 384 MB Ram Adaptec AIC-7880 Ultra SCSI host adapter Matrox G400 Max Dualhead SoundBlaster Live!

More wine beginner questions
by Mike Bond 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
