What color depth are you running at? My guess is that it is 16. If this is correct then try increasing it. It may be that the text is just not showing up because of this problem. I have CC:ed the Wine development list in order that the real wine gurus can have a look at this. How long do you have before you have to subject the little children to the "Windows Solution".

Is there a reason we can't just use environment variables rather than argc/argv? I would think that would be less of a hassle than using argc/argv. .Geoff ----------------------------------------------------- Protect yourself from spam, use http://sneakemail.com

Unicode header control used by listview
by Uwe Bonnes March 29, 2002

March 29, 2002

Hallo, some application made from a zip archive "4957.exe", that uses the listview.c sample from microsoft floating around since at least 1996, uses commctrl headers and shows only the first letter of the text in the header tabs. This is caused by (wine) listview.c creating the header windows as unicode, but in the commctrl initialization the header class was registered as ascii. When the header text is inserted, it is translated to unicode. When it is read out for display, it is treated as ascii, as the unicode flag of the header control isn't set. So reading of only one character succeeds. So either we set the header unicode-flag when creating the header control in listview, or we register the header class as unicode. Appended patch switches the charset after creating the control in listview.c. Does this sound right? Feedback welcome!

freetype
by Morten Welinder March 29, 2002

March 29, 2002

I get the message *** Note: Your system appears to have the FreeType 2 runtime libraries *** installed, but 'freetype-config' is not in your PATH. Install the *** freetype-devel package (or its equivalent on your distribution) to *** enable Wine to use TrueType fonts. even though I do have freetype-config in my PATH. It seems related to the test dnl Check that we have at least freetype/freetype.h if test "$ac_cv_header_freetype_freetype_h" = "yes" -a "$wine_cv_fttrigon" = "yes" (Note: comments, message, and code do not agree) I don't seem to have the <ft2build.h> and <freetype/fttrigon.h> files. Should I? This is on a SuSE7.3 system, FWIW. Morten

cvs doesn't build .. my fault?
by Paul Millar March 29, 2002

March 29, 2002

Hi, A couple of things: First, I've noticed cvs didn't build for me anymore. The problem was because I removed the header files for ncurses (ie removed the ncurses-devel RPM). The file dlls/ttydrv/bitmap.c then failed to compile. Having had a look at the code in ttydrv, its fairly obvious it wont build without either curses or ncurses installed. A simple patch (wine-diff-1) provides a better error message. It shouldn't be needed (with the next patch), but might help bug finding in the future. But, shouldn't wine simply abstain from building ttydrv if a (n?)curses package isn't available? I've attached another patch (wine-diff-2) that does that. AFAIK, there's no knock-on effects. Second problem, when attempting to verify the build-failure on a different machine (hathi), it failed, but in a different part of the build! It only succeeded on the third machine (romulus) On hathi, a RH-7.0 (w/ Linus-2.4.3 kernel) I got: > make[2]: Entering directory `/disk/hathi1/paulm/wine/dlls/ntdll' > LD_LIBRARY_PATH="../../unicode:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" > ../../tools/winebuild/winebuild -fPIC -L../../dlls -o ntdll.spec.c > -spec ./ntdll.spec > make[2]: *** [ntdll.spec.c] Segmentation fault (core dumped) [...] After some investigation, it transpires that gcc on hathi (the RH-7.0 machine) builds broken winebuild programs (the unicode library was fine). The RH-7.1 (romulus) could "fix" the problem by recompiling just the winebuild directory. The problem turned out to be because I had old gcc-2.96 RPMs installed. After updating to the latest upgrade RPMs winebuild is built correctly, but wrc is now broken: it segfaults whenever its run. Can anyone with a 7.0 machine verify this? Cheers, Paul.

how to unsubscribe?
by Ludootje March 29, 2002

March 29, 2002

Hello, First of all I'd like to say I'm sorry to both you people with this. I tried some stuff to unsubscribe by going to the default urls of sourceforge lists etc, but that didn't helped. I went to wine.sf.net, but didn't found any public mailing list, and I can't remember where I subscribed to this list. The reason I want to unsubsribe (temporariliy) is that I'm off for vacation, and don't feel like reading tons of wine-devel mails when I'm back ;-) So, where can I unsubscribe, and resubscribe (for when I'm back)? Or even better, is there an option like with sourceforge lists where I just edit my preferences and check the box which says I don't want to receive any mails anymore temporarily? Thanks in advance, Ludootje --- Linux: because rebooting is for adding hardware. M$: because choices are confusing.

update in EDIT_WM_SetText
by Rizsanyi Zsolt March 29, 2002

March 29, 2002

Hi! I have this next patch: --- controls/edit.c Fri Mar 29 19:03:25 2002 +++ controls/edit.c Fri Mar 29 19:03:09 2002 @@ -4727,7 +4727,10 @@ * if it is multiline, or it is part of combobox */ if( !((es->style & ES_MULTILINE) || es->hwndListBox)) + { EDIT_NOTIFY_PARENT(hwnd, es, EN_CHANGE, "EN_CHANGE"); + EDIT_NOTIFY_PARENT(hwnd, es, EN_UPDATE, "EN_UPDATE"); + } EDIT_EM_ScrollCaret(hwnd, es); } Which fixes an update problem in my program. As much as I understand the program reeds the state of the edit on every EN_UPDATE event. And because EN_UPDATE was not sent, so the program operated with undefined values and could not find the words (its a dictionary program). I see, that the above code is somewhat weird, because two events are sent. But of course if the programs rely on it, then it has to be so. I will let to somebody more acquinted with wine and windows to decide whether this solution is ok. Best regards Zsolt Rizsanyi

wineinstall patch
by Chris Morgan March 29, 2002

March 29, 2002

This patch has some significant changes to wineinstall, the most notable being that we no longer let the user run wineinstall as root user and that we use su -c"command" to run 'make install' and to modify the users /etc/ld.so.conf file if necessary. I wanted to get feedback from people on these changes. Thanks, Chris *tools/wineinstall: Chris Morgan <cmorgan(a)alum.wpi.edu> Prevent the user from running wineinstall as root, add script commands so we 'su root' for installing and other commands that require root access. Fix modification time comparison of wrong file. Added missing sed line. Always 'make ' before we run make install so no build files become owned by root.
