CryptoAPI
by Travis Michielsen Sept. 3, 2001

Sept. 3, 2001

Hi, I was going to start implementing the Cypto API (in advapi32.dll) over the next few weeks. As of yet these functions are no more than stubs. However, I am finding increased use of this API as more applications becomed networkable and relying more heavily on internet connections. I was hoping to implement these functions by using the OpenSSL library (if/when available). This library seems to have similar capabilities. One of my concerns is about legal issues. What special concerns should I note about cryptographic software? Are there any special copyright issues I should be aware of? Another question is about design. M$ seems to split the cryptographic software into different dlls (rsabase.dll, rsasig.dll, dssbase.dll, etc.). Should I do this as well so that, applications can use the native dlls if necessary or should I simply implement it entirely though advapi32.dll which and avoid the need to create several new (and very small) dlls under wine? Because most of the code is already in another library (OpenSSL) creating extra dlls seems abit unnecessary. - Travis _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: wine-devel digest, Vol 1 #445 - 9 msgs

Attempt 2 :-) I am trying to get winsock to work under Solaris and need a little help. When connecting, the call to connect doesn't generate a syn packet as expected, The problem appears to be WSOCK32_socket, where the type of socket is passed as type 1 for a tcp service, as it turns out the Solaris header file defines SOCK_STREAM as 2 and SOCK_DGRAM as 1 which makes the subsequent call to connect succeed without establishing a connection because a UDP endpoint was created instead of a tcp one. Now to find out where SOCK_STREAM is getting defined as 1 :-/ I probably need to check the standard function calls between a solaris binary and a windows one so does someone have a simple test program and a unix source (IE windows binary with unix compatible source code) that I can use to compare behaviours between the two environments ? Thanks Bob

Problems with WM_PAINT and threads

Mouse Events

Aug. 30, 2001

G'day all, Maiden post. Please be gentle.. I had a problem using wine with a touchscreen under XFree 4.0.2. With the help of Gerard Patel and Ove Kaaven I have come up with a patch that solves my problem, and does not appear to disrupt any of the other machines and programs I use. I have looked at several ways of achieving this, and this seems to be the least messy. This has been tested with both the touchscreen and also ps/2 mouse and works well with both. I'm not a C programmer at all, and have little experience with the WINE code. All comments both positive and negative appreciated.. Thanks..

Comment from IBM developer re FS register corruption
by Jeremy White Aug. 29, 2001

Aug. 29, 2001

At LinuxWorld today, a couple of developers from IBM stopped by and mentioned a patch that they recently sent to Linus (which he accepted with dismay at such a long standing bug, and apparently committed to the 2.4.8 tree). Sadly, I have forgotten the woman's name, but she indicated that there was a race condition that could sometimes cause the fs register to become corrupt, and that this problem had existing in all versions of Linux, as far as they could tell. She indicated that the patch had a fairly innocuous description, but it might be worth understanding this problem better (although from her description, it didn't sound like a good workaround was available). Cheers, Jeremy p.s. Wine was a finalist for best open source project, but lost out to KDE. Next time, the crystal plaque is ours. I can feel it.

Powerdvd running under linux
by Robert Lowery Aug. 29, 2001

Aug. 29, 2001

Hi I have a graphics card with an SIS6326 chipset. Under Windows 98 (using PowerDVD), I get fantastic performance on my Pention 233MMX as it supports YUV->RGB, Motion Compensation and iDCT in hardware. This chipset is not currently supported under Linux. What do you think the chances are of PowerDVD working with hardware acceleration under WINE/WINEX? What sort of performance should I expect? Please cc replies to my email, as I am not subscribed Thank-you for your help -Robert

./configure file in cvs
by Gioele Barabucci Aug. 29, 2001

Aug. 29, 2001

Hello everyone, why is there a ./configure file in your cvs? configure was meant to be created for endusers, not for developers. Many projects based on auto* tools create a ./autogen.sh or ./bootstrap script. The fact is that the configure supplied (and all the auto* files) creates lot of confusion and some errors sometime. simple as: #!/bin/sh # rm -f configure ltmain.sh config.guess config.sub echo "Running libtoolize..." libtoolize --force --copy >/dev/null echo "Running aclocal..." aclocal $ACLOCAL_FLAGS echo "Running autoheader..." $use_autoheader echo "Running autoconf..." $use_autoconf echo "Running automake..." automake --add-missing --copy --foreign -- Gioele Barabucci (Gb]) <gioeleb(a)tiscalinet.it>

This is a historical moment, btw :-) Now Wine has all the architectural features of Win 95 Not everything is implemented, FindWindow does not yet work across processes for example. But it's an important step nonetheless. Alexandre Julliard has implemented the 'generation' feature of handles. The higher part of a 32 bit handle is used for a counter that is incremented from a window creation to another, avoiding the age-old problem of windows being deleted, then braindead application trying to use their handles, using newly created windows instead. What this means is that any use of 16 bit code with window handles in Wine will break as the handles will be truncated. I already see many new crashes... The dialog code uses a 16 bit only Api (FillWindow) The following (and simplistic) patch should make your app crash a bit later.

Call for Volunteers (Re: Newbie work?)

Unfortunately this file does not seem very helpful. Time for another round of my Call for Volunteers it seems :-) Note that I did not get much time to update it so please send me your ideas. Also I'm thinking about starting an additional section for 'hard(er)' projects that would significantly improve Wine. Maybe it could also list projects that are already underway and for which help would be appreciated (DCOM?, STRICT handles?). But first, many thanks go to all those who fixed bugs from the previous call for volunteers and especially to Maciek Kaliszewski for his wrc fixes. What is the "Call for Volunteers"? I have built a list of projects that should be easy to tackle by new Wine developpers. The main goal is to provide the needed inspiration to potential Wine developpers that just are not motivated by the standard 'grep FIXME' answer (and I can understand them). So here goes. Easy: * PrgWin95/98: System metrics differ from the Win9x values #48: http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48 One day I'll fix this one... I swear. Unless you want to work on it first. In that case I'll provide you with my test application and dumps of the metrics for Win95, Win98, NT4, 2000, ... * The doc about the command line arguments and the config file is out of date. See TextCP, XVideoPort and Synchronous for instance. I'm sure there are plenty of other things that are out of date. * Metabug: Test Wine with the VXCL samples #242: http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=242 Get the VXCL samples, test them with Wine and report the bugs in the bugzilla database. I know there's lots of them. Then people (or yourself) can start fixing these bugs in a distributed fashion. You can probably start reporting the most obvious bugs just by testing in Wine, but for more subtle bugs you will need two computers (or Win4Lin/VmWare) to more easily compare the behavior in Windows and in Wine. * Metabug: Test Wine with the Common Control Spy Samples #239: http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=239 Get the Common Control Spy samples and test Wine with them. You will need the native comctl32 dll but you can do the tests without rebooting between each test or using two computers. * PrgWin95: Listbox getting a recessed border instead of a flat one #56: http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=56 (I can provide you with the sample application) This one my be fixed, to check... * I think it would be nice to add a tool that displays the dlls version information like 'About' does in the windows explorer. I have some code you could use as a starting point and I think it could be merged with winver. In fact this would be almost stabdard windows programming. * Tabs are missing their inner border #243: http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=243 There's a bug in the drawing of the border of the common control tabs. Fixing each of the four instances of the code is easy. It would be interesting to find a way to factorize some of this code. Medium (I expect these would take longer or be a bit harder) * Quickbooks Pro Timer does not accept date (GetCalendarInfoA error) #276: http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=276 GetCalendarInfoA/W are not implemented yet. They involve quite a lot of internationalisation aspects, but providing a first implementation that at least handles the common cases should be feasible. * Provide a pedump utility #91: http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=91 I know there's sample code that does that already floating around so it should be relatively simple. Eric Pouech seems to be working on this. I did not check if his pedump dump the imports/exports but it probably does. * CreateIcon does not resize bitmaps #175: http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=175 I did a similar fix somewhere some time ago. I can provide a sample application and I might be able to point you in the right direction. * winemaker: 'winemaker --nomfc' does not have the intended effect #227: http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=227 * winemaker: Ignores the '--with-{mfc,wine}' options once they are cached #225: http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=225 If you're familiar with autoconf and know how configure scripts should behave... * StrokePath ignores PS_JOIN_xxx #11: http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11 This should not be too difficult to fix but it would certainly help if you are familiar with GDI. * Checking the differences between what's in the Windows dlls and what's in our spec files... and fix the contents of our spec files as appropriate. I already have a list of all the APIs in each of the dlls for Win95, Win98, NT4 and Wine2000, plus a script that can show the differences. * Enhancing the above perl script. In particular it could be made smarter wrt. detecting whether an API is exported by ordinal or not. -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)free.fr http://fgouget.free.fr/ Hiroshima '45 - Czernobyl '86 - Windows '95

Newbie work?
by Daniel Sabo Aug. 28, 2001

Aug. 28, 2001

I noticed that there was a file on ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/ALPHA/wine/ about projects for newbie wine developers. I also noticed that it was written in 1994. So I was wondering if there was a more up to date version or if anyone had some ideas of usefull work that a developer new to wine could do? Daniel Sabo

I already see many new crashes... Actually truncated handles should work just fine, the generation number is simply ignored if it is zero. There may theoretically be problems when we pass a truncated handle to a 32-bit app that compares it to a full 32-bit handle stored previously, but this should be fairly rare behavior. So your crashes are probably caused by something else. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

We don't need to create the keys, but we need to create the handle to the key. We could use NtOpenKey instead but NtCreateKey works just as well and avoids duplicating code. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Hi all, in PROFILE_LoadWineIni(), we return from processing in case we're not the boot thread only *after* having created HKLM\\Software\\Wine\\Wine registry keys: if (!CLIENT_IsBootThread()) return 1; /* already loaded */ Why ?? After all the registry is globally shared in wineserver, so it shouldn't be necessary to create them again via NtCreateKey if we're not the wine boot process.

help me with WIN95 value of version16()
by Ladislav Sladecek Aug. 27, 2001

Aug. 27, 2001

The return value of GetVersion16() for win95 changed recently from 0x5f03 to 0x304 in misc/version.c (patch 1.43 -> 1.44). The version of "real" win95 I use (Czech, win95 2nd ed) gives 0x5f03 while "wine --winver win95" gives 0x304. As I do not have the US version of win95 I am not able to determine the right value. Since people from many countries read this group I ask for help. I created a simple test (compiled binary attached or compile yourselves in a 16 bit compiler). Please let me know what do your win95 (win98) returns. #include <windows.h> int WINAPI WinMain() { char s[1024]; DWORD v; v = GetVersion(); wsprintf(s,"GetVersion returned: 0x%0x",v); MessageBox(NULL,s,"lsla(a)post.cz",0); return 0; } Ladislav Sladecek

I have no idea if OSR2 or 98 or Me behave differently, but I doubt it, else there would be a huge number of complaints in past Usenet postings archived on Google. IMO to fix the problem it's sufficient to change GetVersion16 along the lines of : if version = 0400 and winversion=win95 then version = 3.95 Gerard
