Question about printer support in wine.
by Joshua Thielen June 22, 2002

June 22, 2002

Hello everybody, I'm trying to set up my printer in wine in order to test SmartForms and LogicWorks (they both are helplessly out of order without a default printer). The documentation says that if you have CUPS installed, all printing options are autodetected regardless of .ini or registry entries. I have cups, libcups, and libcups-devel 1.1.0 installed and I'm running Mandrake 8.1. Configure is able to find the CUPS files and enables CUPS printing support in wine. But when I run either SmartForms or LogicWorks, it says that a default printer could not be found. Is the documentation correct, or am I missing something? I'm sorry, I probably should have posted this question to a different list, but I'm too lazy to go elsewhere. TIA, Josh

It's not clear to me what we gain by using the header file. If you need to check for the presence of some specific functions you should do a configure check for these, instead of using a GLU_VERSION define. Even better would be to load them dynamically using dlsym, like we do for libfreetype and libXrender. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Regression errors ...
by Paul Millar June 21, 2002

Hi, Last nights patch for DRIVE_FindDriveRoot: http://cvs.winehq.com/patch.py?id=1024614786458303934502513 caused two regression errors in dlls/kernel/tests/path.c at lines 212 and 672 ("GetShortPathNAmeA did not return an 8.3 path" and "GetShortPathNameA did not keep relative directory" respectively) BTW, the TODO test (line 2435) in dlls/oleaut32/tests/vartest.c succeeds. Should it be move from TODO to a real test? Cheers, ---- Paul Millar

Hi all, I want to run a program that needs d3d8.dll. Using winedump I see there are only 5 functions exported. So what would the way to do a stub dll ?

GDI patch for Acad. Please feedback !
by P. Christeas June 21, 2002

June 21, 2002

Below there is a patch which makes AutoCAD R14 work under wine. The patch involves (patch1.diff) some calculation for Bitmaps drawn in negative-y-axis (i.e. bottom-left is 0,0) windows. I just found that solution by trying. Therefore, the patch, may cause trouble to other apps (mostly drawing - CAD ones). *Please* try this patch and report if any app (just any!) mis-behaves with it. If you have any other solution for the same point, please tell me. The file 'patch2.diff' has one more suggestion, concerning NULL object handles. This should only introduce a minor speedup and suppress a warning message, which made gdi debugging little hard.

How do I obtain GUIDs for socket transports?
by Martin Wilck June 20, 2002

June 20, 2002

Hi, I am currently trying to create a "clean" implementation of WSAEnumProtocols and friends. Eventually WSASocket, WSADuplicateSocket, getsockopt etc. will support the WSAPROTOCOL_INFO structs correctly. Here is a question: Windows has a GUID assigned to each protocol. "uuids.h" contains a large number of wine-UUIDs - how were these constructed? How should I build mine? We are not talking about random GUIDs here. My NT box shows e.g. e70f1aa0-ab8b-11cf-8ca300805f48a192 for MS TCP/IP, 11058240-be47-11cf-95c800805f48a192 for MS IPX, 2c3b17a0-c6df-11cf-95c800805f48a192 for MS Appletalk. Should I simply copy these for wine, or change them somehow?

wine can't find regedit.exe.so when it is not on the path

Ian, It's been a while since I ran Notes 4 (I'm running 5.08 now) but if I recall correctly, you are able to click and drag the window pane dividers to grow or shrink them, respectively. Perhaps something in the virtual desktop switching process triggers a window resize message to the pane? Question: Once this happens, can you drag the vertical pane rightwards and redisplay the folder view? Or is it gone until you quit/restart Notes? Regards, Daniel Schwarz dschwarz(a)bellatlantic.net

Notes R4 redraw problem
by Ian Pilcher June 19, 2002

June 19, 2002

Dan - I'm hoping to pick your brain a little bit. I've attached a couple of screen captures that illustrate a problem I'm seeing with the Notes 4.6.7 client. Assume that I have my inbox set up as shown in "before.png". When I switch to a different virtual desktop and then switch back, the inbox will be redrawn as shown in "after.png". (The left-hand pane, which shows the views has had its width set to zero somehow.) Since I don't know either X or GDI programming very well, I'm a loss as to where to start looking. Any ideas? Thanks! -- ======================================================================== Ian Pilcher pilchman(a)attbi.com ========================================================================

Dynamically linking with a Unix library - or not
by Shachar Shemesh June 19, 2002

June 19, 2002

Hi WINE-devel list (cross posted to Linux-IL), After a lively discussion in the Israeli Linux users mailing list, it appears that the best solution will be to give a command line (or config) option to use an external library (fribidi) for the RTL rendering. I would still implement this internally, as the extrenal library is more Unicode and less Windows complient, but that's besides the point. Adding a ./configure option to do so would probably be quite feasable (I don't know how to do it at the moment, but I am sure that will not be the disqualifying factor), but I have been quite hesitant to go that way until now, for the following reasons: A. Fribidi will have to be present during building WINE. That, in itself, is not a majour obstacle, but B. Having Fribidi present during compile will add Fribidi to the WINE dependancies. I am afraid that the consequence of B will be that no packager in his right mind will use that option. As that works in direct contradiction to the reason I entered the WINE project to begin with, I am trying to opt for a better solution. I'm seeing two possible solutions to this problem: A. If Fribidi was present during compile, check for its existance during run time. If not present, don't enable the run time option. or B. Copy (port?) Fribidi into the WINE code. It's LGPL, so the license does allow that. The consequence of B is that I will need to keep an eye on Fribidi, and keep it up to date whenever something changes there. I am very reluctant to do so. I would much rather go for the "A" solution. The problem is that I know how to do this in Windows, but not in Linux. Any help anyone can offer me? Shachar

What happens with...
by Medland, Bill June 18, 2002

June 18, 2002

Can someone save me the trouble of hunting and experimenting on the following please? Our program currently is installed through installshield. It does the usual loading of newer Microsoft DLLs etc as well as of our own objects. Rather than registering them immediately it adds the registration tasks to the RunOnce part of the registry and requires a reboot. When I had a go a couple of days ago I didn't actually "do the reboot". (At the time I didn't know how our installer worked) and registered the dlls etc by hand (when I figured out that they weren't). Can anyone tell me if the "RunOnce" registry section works and if "rebooting" in the Windows sense actually reboots the wine server? Bill
