Well we could actually make them truely static with a little trickery and a corrensponding change of winebuild. Idea: #define DECLARE_ENTRY_POINT16(module, function) \ void *module##_p##function = (void *) &function /* After the includes */ static void Foo(void *, int); DECLARE_ENTRY_POINT16(BAR, Foo); /* ... */ static void Foo(void *, int) { /* ... */ } It is probably not worth the trouble though. > They > cannot be because of the spec file reference, but ideally no code > should ever call a 16-bit API, it should use the corresponding 32-bit > API.

You want all 16-bit exported function prototypes moved from the .h files to the implementing .c file in all cases that is is possible (ie Wine compiles without errors or warnings)? Do you also want the types and structures moved as well? That will often not be possible, but do you want it despite this in the cases where it is possible?

What is the downside of using the > preprocessor, however? Well, the preprocessor "pollutes" the namespace in a way that is sometimes bad and my solution gives IMHO a slightly nicer syntax. Is this case in don't think it matters so much though, your orginal solution is fine, in fact is the standard solution in C to the problem you have AFAIK. My suggestion is really just brainstorming to give you hopefully a different perspective of the issue. Also note that your solution is not possible with languages that don't have pointer aritmetics that C, fortunately or unluckily depending on how you see it, have.

All 16-bit API functions must be treated as if they were static. They cannot be because of the spec file reference, but ideally no code should ever call a 16-bit API, it should use the corresponding 32-bit API. Adding prototypes and a header file is only going to encourage using these functions which is not what we want. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Ah. You are right, I orginally meant to add it in a different file (wine/obj_base16.h perhaps) but I didn't think it would matter since other 16 bit interface like IStream16 and IStorage16 is in wine/obj_*.h already. Perhaps they should be move out as well? If so to where? wine/obj_*16.h or perhaps the DLLs directories if possible? > Also please avoid adding more 16-bit headers in include/wine, there > are already too many of them. Well that was the idea at first but at least of the new ones are was needed in more that one directory some I ended up adding all of them there. But sure I can move the ones that are not use in more of one directory to that directory, I'm just a little worried that since the wine/*16.h header are 16-bit "mirrors" of the corresponding 32-bit files that functions from other DLLs happends to end up there as well. Microsoft seems have mixed headers and DLLs without much thought especially as far as OLE is concerned. Sure we can have several .h files with the same name in different DLL directories as far as functions are concerned since 16-bit functions shouldn't call across different DLLs anyway, but duplicating types and such are not a very good idea. But sure I can examine the files more carefully and see if it is possible and of course we can add it to a DLL directory first and then move it to include/wine if is because nessary in the future. > These headers (when they are really > necessary) belong in their respective dll directory. And BTW your new > lzexpand16.h is an example of a header file that is *not* necessary. Nessary for compiling Wine no, clearly not since it already compiles. However IMO all exported functions whether they are 16-bit or 32-bit and whether they are actually uses by other files or not should have declarations in some header file. For 32-bit it must obviously be so because of Winelib. The undocumented functions is of course not strictly nessary but I see not reason not to have them as a Wine extension that can be ported to Windows eventually in order to have the same source on both Unix and Windows. For 16-bit is seems that you disagree. Well, the advantages that I can think of for doing it for 16-bit as well is the following. 1. It makes it much easier for developer to add calls across files between 16-bit functions or move functions between files if the infrastructure is alreay in place. 2. It makes it possible to see related 16-bit functions together in a .h file instead of having to search the .c files. 3. It makes it possible go through each 16-bit .h file compare it with Windows and add the missing functions in the .h files and when somebody in the future runs winapi_check (or whatever) it is possible to present a list of what is not yet implemented. Sure the .spec contains that information as well in some meaning but it misses which functions that are actually listed in the 16-bit header files and thus likely to actually be used by real applications. 4. Since some of the 16-bit exported functions must be declared in some .h since it is used in some of file than it was declared, it is be much easier to require all 16-bit export function to be declared since it is difficult to tell which that are (or will be) really needed. 5. There is nothing unreasonable to require every non-static function let alone functions that are exported by either Win16 or Win32 to have a declaration in some .h files. Indeed tools like lint (at least on Solaris) have flags to check for this. In short trying to only add the 16-bit functions that are stricly nessary to .h files is more trouble than it is worth, especially compare to the advantages that having all of them .h files. In addition (as I hinted in 5.) requiring all non-static functions to have a .h file declaration is good policy for any application including Wine. Hint, if a function isn't static somebody else should use it otherwise some else is wrong, ie it really should be static after all. But OK. You think that there are too many 16-bit files in include/wine. No problem. I will try to avoid it if at all possible.

Not really, but as an alternative solution you could has a structure instead of an array like: typedef struct { GLYPHNAME A; GLYPHNAME AE; GLYPHNAME AEacute; GLYPHNAME AEsmall; /* ... */ } GLYPHNAMES; Perhaps this is better since it doesn't use the preprocessor. However I'm not sure if all C compilers supports 1258 structure members. Another possible problem is alignment on some platforms if you must be able for iterate over it and use it as and array. Of course you can simply have a seperate array of pointers like: GLYPHNAMES glyphnames = { /* ... */ }; GLYPHNAME *pGlyphnames[] = { &glyphnames.A; &glyphnames.AE; &glyphnames.AEacute; &glyphnames.AEsmall; /* ... */ };

Lots of #defines OK?
by Ian Pilcher July 19, 2001

July 19, 2001

I'm giving some thought to cleaning up the data structures used by the PostScript driver. Any significant change here will require that the glyph list and font data be regenerated. This is not particularly difficult, but it would be easier if I could remove the dependency of the font data on the glyph name array. Each glyph's metrics include a pointer to its name, and all of the built-in glyph names are in a single array named PSDRV_AGLGlyphNames (in dlls/wineps/data/agl.c). So the metrics for a glyph look like this: { 33, 0x0021, 600, PSDRV_AGLGlyphNames + 907, { 236, -15, 364, 572 }, NULL /* exclam */ } I would like to get rid of the "hardcoded" offset into the glyph name array and replace it with a macro ('GN_exclam', for example). Each font data file could then simply include a header that gets regenerated when- ever the glyphlist is changed -- eliminating the current requirement to regenerate all the font data. Anyone see any problems with this? (There are currently 1258 built-in glyph names.)
