They are part of the X spec AFAICT, so yes it should be pretty much standard. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

native dll's
by José Soriano Díaz July 26, 2001

July 26, 2001

Hi there, I'm working in a telerobotics project and I need to link a windows dll in order to use a Cybernet Joystick. First I tried to use the winAPI functions LoadLibrary,FreeLibrary and GetProccessAddress as I were working on Windows, and I recompiled my program with winelib: *. winemaker /my_path/ *. ./configure *. make all but it didn't create any executable, what I obtained was a lib*.so, because winemaker thought I was trying to compile a dll, not to use one. After that I tried to compile my program without winemaker, and I obtained a HEAP_PTR error when executing what I copiled. And If I tried to link the lib*.so and load the main symbol I obtained the same error. So my question is quite siple How can I link a native dll in a Unix project? I've read somewhere that I have to use a parser, Is there anybody who can give me some code? Thanks for your precious time. _________________________________________________________________ Descargue GRATUITAMENTE MSN Explorer en http://explorer.msn.es/intl.asp

As a rule, any resemblance between what MSDN says and what the code actually does is purely fortuitous. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Wine Winex Half-life/Nox and alsa
by FT Rathore July 25, 2001

July 25, 2001

Hi I tried Jul 23 cvs of wine and winex and tried with Nox and Half Life. Both wine and winex work fine with the stock kernel sound drivers (es1371) but they do not work well with alsa with oss emulation. The sound gets played extremely fast in Half-Life like someone hit the fast-forward button. It is strange because the timing on the alsa oss-emulation (and commercial oss drivers) is better than the stock kernel drivers. Winex does a lot of improvement in Half-Life and it is fully playable (the splash, the menu and everything). Nox works near perfect with wine but it does not work at all with winex. FT

CallWindowProc syntax
by Marco Bizzarri July 25, 2001

July 25, 2001

Hi all. While looking at the source code of wine, I looked into the synopsys of the CallWindowProc function. According to winproc.c, the hWnd parameter should be the handle to the window which has to receive the message. OTOH, if you look at MSDN, at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/winui/hh/w… it looks like the hWnd is the windows procedure which should receive the message. Can anyone help? Thanks Marco Bizzarri m.bizzarri(a)icube.it

Re: Make built-in font data read-only

Well, if it's not feasible so be it.

The main benefit is sharing between processes; so if you have 10 processes that want to print you only have one copy of the font data in memory. Plus it gets loaded on-demand so data that isn't used doesn't need to be loaded from disk at all. > Just in case I get inspired, though, what tool/command are you using to > determine read-only vs. read/write data sizes? Can I just go by what > objdump says about .data and .rodata? objdump is fine yes. size works too, though I seem to remember some versions not counting .rodata correctly. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Would it be possible to store offsets instead of pointers? -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com
