Although this may duplicate effort, I am familiar with several strange combinations of exception handling that I know work with Visual C++ 6.0; I will put them a test program for you. You can never have too many test programs, right?

Failure running 1998-era online manual
by Dan Kegel Dec. 7, 2002

Dec. 7, 2002

I grabbed Wine-20021125 and built it on my Red Hat 7.3 box. Its behavior installing http://enduser:enduser(a)bbs.toshiba.co.uk/file/area128/S22D95UM.ZIP (the Windows 95 version of the user manual for my 1998-era Toshiba laptop) seems much improved over May/June 2002 wine, cool! However, running the app does no better. To run the app, you do cd 'c/Program Files/DOC' wine edoc32.exe TOSHIBA.M14 On Windows, it works fine. On Wine, it displays a splash screen, then exits. Here's a partial log: 08074e50:Ret kernel32.lstrcpyA() retval=406d2dc0 ret=01643c25 08074e50:Call winmm.mmioInstallIOProcA(2034314d,01643b30,10010000) ret=01643c54 trace:mmio:MMIO_InstallIOProc (540291405, 0x1643b30, 10010000, 1) fixme:mmio:MMIO_InstallIOProc Global procedures not implemented ... 08074e50:Ret winmm.mmioInstallIOProcA() retval=01643b30 ret=01643c54 08074e50:Ret PE DLL (proc=0x1641030,module=0x1640000,type=1,res=0x1) retval=1 ... 08074e50:Starting process C:\Program Files\DOC\edoc32.exe (entryproc=0x41c9b0) ... 08074e50:Call winmm.mmioOpenA(406d2cfc "+init",00000000,00000000) ret=00405fd6 trace:mmio:MMIO_Open ('+init', (nil), 00000000, 1); 08074e50:Call ntdll.RtlAllocateHeap(40380000,00000008,0000005c) ret=40c3e59b 08074e50:Ret ntdll.RtlAllocateHeap() retval=403c42b8 ret=40c3e59b trace:mmio:MMIO_ParseExtA ("+init") err:mmio:MMIO_ParseExtA + but no . in szFileName: "+init" It sounds like mmioOpen's documentation at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/multimed/m… is incomplete; it doesn't describe what the function does when there's no filename, just a +init, in the string passed to mmioOpen.

Regression in wineconsole

how to switch between threads

Hi, I am debugging wine with MS Media Player. Some places the program is blocking with som 7 to 8 threads opened. They are all waiting for a some event(ConnectNamedPipe) But i think there should be another thread with will Create the file or NamedPipe. So How can i see where the other threads are when i set a break point in a perticular method. How dose debuggers handle MultiThreaded Applications? Can i Shit to different Thread to exmine where is it when the program Halted? Thanks Rajesh __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

Adding support for xxx_test.exe all
by Francois Gouget Dec. 2, 2002

Dec. 2, 2002

When running the tests on Windows you can either do 'xxx_test.exe' which gives you a list of the available tests for this executable, or 'xxx_test.exe foo' which runs test foo, and only test foo.

"not enough space in GDI heap" / forking vstlib programs
by Kjetil S. Matheussen Dec. 1, 2002

Dec. 1, 2002

Hello, as I just announced I'm developing a vst-server, that loads and runs windows vst plugins. But after loading and unloading a lot of plugins, I get lots of "err:local:LOCAL_GetBlock not enough space in GDI heap 01f7 for 24 bytes" errors. I understand that the cause of this error is caused by a memory leak in a windows program. However, in the vst-server, there is no way to control memory leaks in the plug-ins, as those are made by various groups and persons. So is there a way around this error. Doing a fork for each new plug-in perhaps? Is that safe? I want to do that also to avoid having a plug-in crash the vst-server. --

> The only thing I don't like in my proposal is the win32 name, namely > the 32. I guess Win64 will go in the same namespace, as well as win16. > This is confusing. What about winxx or even better winapi? Windows uses the same header files for both Win32 and Win64. It is Win32 if _WIN32 is defined and Win64 if _WIN64 is defined. On 64 bit platforms we can never get 100% Win32 source compabillity because of compiler problems. If fact we can't get 100% Win64 support either for the same reasons so I guess Wine on 64-bit platforms will be some kind of pseudo mode. So we probably should have the same include directory for Win32 and Win64.

OK, I've now read the docs and I understand this a bit better now. My next awkward question is: I can see that this is necessary for some apps which have C++ static initialisers, or which load libraries that have C++ static initialisers, but why does that mean it's necessary for PuTTY? PuTTY contains no C++, and as far as I know it uses no libraries _except_ standard Win32 API ones. Surely it should be possible _for these particular applications_ to compile them as standalone binaries? Or does Winelib currently only support doing things the inconvenient way?

Texture problems under Wine - more info
by David D. Hagood Dec. 1, 2002

Dec. 1, 2002

As I've stated in previous mailings, I've started having problems getting HalfLife to run under Wine - while at one time I was able to complete all of HalfLife - Opposing Force running under Wine, now I am unable to get the textures to render correctly. I have more information - I subscribed to Transgaming, downloaded the current WineX, installed HalfLife under it, and it works correctly. So, that would tend to exonerate my libGL, my system, and HalfLife, and leave only Wine as the suspect in the problem. So, the question is "What is the difference between the WineX OpenGL library and the Wine OpenGL library?" I hope to do more research on this over the weekend, but thought I'd post this now in case it rang any bells with somebody else.

When sending an IM in AIM with any recent version of wine (including a couple of days before the latest cvs snapshot), I can resize the window and when the buttons go to reposition themselves, they move much slower than the border of the window, and you can see them updating their position.

DPMI_CallRMProc trouble
by György 'Nog' Jeney Nov. 30, 2002

Nov. 30, 2002

I realy need help with this. Whenever I call a DOSDEV_ function then that function eventually calls DOSDEV_DoReq. This function calls DPMI_CallRMProc. Now that function call DOSMEM_GetBlock( 64, (UINT16 *)&(context->SegSs) ) to try and allocate a stack. This fails for some reason but I dont understand why because it succeds if called from int21/48. Anyone know whats going on? nog.

I was just looking at shell32.dll and wondered if it should implement A->U as it almost completely consistently implements U->A. So I guess this should all be changed then. Problem is that some of those functions call other functions where only the ANSI version is implemented yet, so it is a lot more work than just moving the implementation from the ANSI to the Unicode version. But what the heck do the errors about AW functions calling Unicode mean? Isn't that the actual idea about the AW functions? Rolf Kalbermatter

MIDI Mapper fix
by Jeff Smith Nov. 30, 2002

Nov. 30, 2002

I'm so happy, I just had to share it with everyone :-D Changelog: Fix for MIDI Mapper. Notes: Finally found it! This was the last thing keeping sound from working in Auralia. With just this simple patch, it now works. Auralia still has a few problems, but they are minor in comparison. It *is* kind of important for sound to work in an ear training program ;-) BTW, Thanks to Eric P. for his help getting me off to a running start with his fixes to the OSS MIDI driver a couple of weeks back.

The conformance tests need you!
by Francois Gouget Nov. 30, 2002

Nov. 30, 2002

Hi, I have been running the Wine conformance tests on Windows 95 and NT4. The results are pretty bad. 24 tests out of 32 have failures in one or more of these two platforms. That's 75% of 'Windows conformance tests' that don't work on Windows! Out of the 32 tests, only 4, that's 12.5%, execute successfully on all tested platforms (and one of them has 4 todos in Wine). You can see things more graphically at the following URL: http://fgouget.free.fr/wine/tests-en.shtml Come on people, we can do better. Send fixes to wine-patches, and send me emails to so that I update this table. -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)free.fr http://fgouget.free.fr/ War doesn't determine who's right.

[RFC] Wine headers
by Dimitrie O. Paun Nov. 30, 2002

Nov. 30, 2002

Alexandre, Patrik brought up the header location sometime ago, in this thread: http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-devel/2002/10/index.html#540 At the time, I thought it is a bit premature, that we have other things to do. Now I realize that this is one of those highly visible external things, that would be a _lot_ better to fix before people start using Winelib. Otherwise will piss people off when we change, or we will not change because people are already using the headers. Both versions are not good, and I think we can fix them now without too much pain. Here is my proposal: ${prefix}/include/win32 -- standard Win32 headers ${prefix}/include/msvcrt -- MS Visual C Runtime library ${prefix}/include/wine -- Wine specific headers It is simple (to understand & implement), clean, and pretty. And I think it solved Patrik's problem (even if I can't quite understand what the problem is from the first message :)), plus a bunch of other things (like making it easy to use other headers for the Win32 API, etc). And best of all, it seems to be easily implementable, no? -- Dimi.

Partial success report: Toshiba 220CDS electronic manual
by Dan Kegel Nov. 30, 2002

Nov. 30, 2002

http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/support/downloads/220guide.exe is an "online manual" for the Toshiba 220CDS laptop. I unzipped it with Linux unzip, then ran its setup and the app itself with Wine20020605-2 from Red Hat 8. Both ran acceptably well, although I did get a few warnings like: err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x4011a4a8 "../../scheduler/syslevel.c: Win16Mutex" wait timed out, retrying (60 sec) tid=08078300 fixme:scroll:ScrollBarWndProc Unimplemented style SBS_SIZEBOX. and there were display anomolies (mostly, areas of the window not being cleared, so old text piled up). Also, I had to grep through the registry for 'toshiba' to see where the darn thing installed itself. I'm looking forward to trying with a more modern wine, but don't have time at the moment. - Dan

[RFC] Winelib enhancements
by Dimitrie O. Paun Nov. 29, 2002

Nov. 29, 2002

Folks, You are probably familiar with the Winelib page: http://www.dssd.ca/wine/Winelib-Apps.html where I describe what one needs to do to compile a Win32 application under Winelib. My original motivation for doing the work was to better understand what inconveniences one has to go through to do the port, and what we can do to eliminate them. Here are my thoughts on the subject, in the build order: Compilation This step require the addition of some flags, and the potential removal of others. Simple to do, and if there is a configure script, quite doable. However, these tweaks are really annoying in the initial stages of the port, and would be so nice if we had a nice compiler wrapper (call it wcc) that would do that behind the scenes, so that the only modification to the makefile would be: -CC=gcc +CC=wcc Q: Alexandre, would you accept such a utility in the tree? Resources These ones are nasty. Programs typically use the windres compiler that compiles a .rc file into a .o file directly, which is later simply linked into the application. We go a different route, by sticking the resources in the .spec.c files, and this entails non-trivial modifications to the makefiles. The ideal option would be to provide a windres compatible command line mode for wrc, so that we can do: -RC=windres +RC=wrc This would mean moving the resources out of the .spec.c file, and exporting the resources variable so we can link it into the .spec.c file. Q: Alexandre, is this acceptable? Does it warrant discussion? Linking Another tricky step, with multiple problems 1. We are missing import libraries. As a result, we can not link with -lwinspool, we need to link with -lwinspool.drv Small change, but it can present nasty problems if you want to submit the patch upstream, to the application maintainers. I understand this one is already on Alexandre's TODO, so we should have a solution to it not before too long. 2. Our linking process is quite different from the "standard" one which uses gcc/ld to do the linking. We generate intermediate files (.spec.c files), and use different flags. Again, the solution for this (to at least help initial porting efforts) would be a wrapper script that does this, that can be used instead of ld. And so the question comes back again, to haunt us: is this needed/wanted/acceptable? Running This is a new step in the process that we introduce. Currently we produce a shared library that requires a wrapper script to start it up. Many considers this (and I might say rightfully so) ugly/bloat/etc. The ideal situation would be to generate regular executables, like all well behaved libraries. Here are a few solutions: 1. An interim step is to improve the wineapploader script so that it can be used by all apps. This is a simple thing to do at the moment, but does not solve the root cause, it just ease the pain a bit. This way you don't need to fight the application maintainers to get such script included in their tree, and having to answer the eternal questions: "WTF is this? I thought that compiling under Winelib would yield an executable that did not need wine. What's the difference as compared to running the Win32 binary directly?" 2. Fix the build process so that we can actually generate regular executables. Thing is, I don't know what's involved in doing so, and I'm afraid only Alexandre knows the answer (hint, hint :)). So a discussion on this topic is needed, just to figure where we want to go from here. Now, this message is meant to elicit discussion on these topics, so that at the end of the day I can gather the conclusions, and track them on TODO page. So do not hesitate to send in your comments. :))) Thanks for your attention, and sorry for the long message. -- Dimi.

I agree, gcc 3.2[.1] is a better choice than gcc-2.96-RH these days. It is very close to compliance with the C++ ABI, and it's an official Gnu release rather than a vendor snapshot.

Is it only characters with the acute accent? Is it that your are attempting this using 'dead key' entry on a Spanish keyboard?

Hello, At work I use Lotus Notes under Wine. I downloaded compiled and installed the new wine version 20021125 and I am no longer able to type accecented valves, like á é í ó ú. Ñ can be typed though correctly. With the other version 20021031 I could type accented valves.In fact I went back to using the older version and worked again so it is obvious it is a problem in the new wine version. Though I am a newbie and know nothing of developing, but I would like to submit the bug to the proper person so it fixes it back again but I dont know which section of wine or person deals with this character typing problem. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance. -daniel http://www.debian-gnu.com _________________________________________________________________ MSN.

Re: final int21 move
by Jukka Heinonen Nov. 29, 2002

Nov. 29, 2002

This patch series starts to look more like what it should be. Previous bugs seem to have been fixed and dependencies between winedos and other dlls have been reduced close to minimum. However, I still find some things that I don't particularly like: - The series is actually one big patch divided into multiple files and not a series of incremental changes. The first patch in series breaks DOS3Call and error reporting of some functions and these are only fixed in later patches. - Old int21 functions contain some obvious bugs that really should be fixed at the same time the code is migrated to winedos. - Move to winedos should not only migrate code but it should also try to rewrite code so that it has better comments, it is more readable and it uses simpler constructs. This patch series really messes up already complicated code. Intendations are irregular and weird. Many newlines are missing. Some internal functions use INT21_ prefixes and some don't. Functions that were implemented as separate helper functions are moved inside int21 main switch case. Three nested levels of switches are used without even proper indentation. And that comment about shooting people is tasteless and really doesn't belong to Wine. I just don't find the quality of this patch acceptable. I don't decide these things but my personal opinion is that I would rather rewrite this patch series than see it accepted in its current state. I wouldn't mind if Nog or someone else works on int21 migration (that's why I haven't posted int21 patches already) but I don't see why I ought to lower my quality requirements due to this fact. -- Jukka Heinonen <http://www.iki.fi/jhei/>

by Dustin Navea Nov. 29, 2002

Nov. 29, 2002

Vincent, Alexandre, and Dimi Grrr, Im really starting to not like Linux's PPPoE support... I have tried every version of pppd and pppoe that is available besides CVS (and thats because I cant get online in Linux to get it) in order to get my DSL workin in Linux and I am giving up until I can afford to get a DSL Router (hopefully next week). So until then, I will be unable to do any regression testing on Diablo II and will be unable to test out any of the most recent patches to verify that they fix problems with my setup... so until next Wednesday I will probably just lurk on the lists -Dustin

SIGSEGV in IDirectDrawImpl_EnumDisplayModes
by Matthew Bloch Nov. 29, 2002

Nov. 29, 2002

Apologies for needing some more hand-holding: from Alexander's advice I now have the game linking and beginning to execute. It now gets stuck while executing this piece of C++: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- void tDirectDrawScreen::destroy() { DDSURFACEDESC ddsd; memset(&ddsd,0,sizeof(DDSURFACEDESC)); ddsd.dwSize = sizeof(DDSURFACEDESC); ddsd.dwFlags = DDSD_CAPS; ddsd.ddsCaps.dwCaps = DDSCAPS_PRIMARYSURFACE; HRESULT hr = mp_directDraw->CreateSurface(&ddsd, &mp_primarySurface, NULL); // crashes here ... } --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This being the segfault that occurs: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- #0 0x40c92c4c in ?? () #1 0x40f56f5f in User_DirectDraw_EnumDisplayModes (iface=0x403acc00, dwFlags=1086925740, pDDSD=0x808c678, context=0x40c92be8, callback=0x40f55dfc <EnumDisplayModesCallbackThunk>) at ddraw/user.c:373 #2 0x40f55e81 in IDirectDrawImpl_EnumDisplayModes (This=0x40c92be8, dwFlags=1086925900, pDDSD=0x808c678, context=0x40c92a94, cb=0x40c92a94) at ddraw/thunks.c:348 #3 0x4080f9b2 in tDirectDrawScreen::setUpWindowedSurfaces (this=0x808c668) at Source/tDirectDrawScreen.cpp:852 #4 0x4080cf1f in tDirectDrawScreen::initialise (this=0x808c668, fullScreen=false, screenWidth=640, screenHeight=480) at Source/tDirectDrawScreen.cpp:88 #5 0x4080caac in tDirectDrawScreen::tDirectDrawScreen (this=0x808c668, fullScreen=false, screenWidth=640, screenHeight=480) at Source/tDirectDrawScreen.cpp:55 #6 0x4082d76f in InitApp (hInst=0x40620000, nCmdShow=1) at Source/Main.cpp:289 #7 0x4082d8fc in WinMain (hInst=0x40620000, hPrevInst=0x0, lpCmdLine=0x403708ad "", nCmdShow=1) at Source/Main.cpp:322 #8 0x4062509c in __wine_exe_main () from /home/mattbee/Work/Nemesis/LSNClient.exe #9 0x400b3799 in start_process () at ../../scheduler/process.c:564 #10 0x400b76c9 in call_on_thread_stack (func=0x400b3558) at ../../scheduler/sysdeps.c:112 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any ideas why this might be happening? -- Matthew Bloch Bytemark Computer Consulting Limited http://www.bytemark.co.uk/ tel. +44 (0) 8707 455026

wine & preempt patch (fwd)
by Matthias Rieber Nov. 28, 2002

Hi, is there are known issue with the preempt patch for the kernel? When I apply that patch, non-open-gl games doesn't run smooth, without the patch they run nearly smooth (especially StarCraft & BaldursGate). OpenGL games are alway fine. matthias
