Bug in WINPOS_GetWinOffset? (was Possible Fix?)

by Joshua Thielen

Hello everybody, I don't know if this is related to the bug Anthony encountered, but why does WINPOS_GetWinOffset() use a goto when it adds the offset of a parent window from another process? Shouldn't the server request 'get_window_parents' be used to retrieve all of the parent windows from other processes? Or can there only be one parent from another process?

solaris configure strangness

by Shachar Shemesh

Hi list. Due to seeing other people looking at it, I decided to try and compile WINE on solaris 2.8 sparc. During configure I get the following messages: checking for ar... ar configure: WARNING: X11/XKBlib.h: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: X11/XKBlib.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: X11/XKBlib.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result configure: WARNING: XShape extension not found, Wine will be built without it configure: WARNING: DGA extension not found, Wine will be built without it configure: WARNING: XFree86 VMODE extension not found, Wine will be built without it configure: WARNING: XVideo extension not found, Wine will be built without it configure: WARNING: net/if.h: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: net/if.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: net/if.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result configure: WARNING: netinet/ip.h: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: netinet/ip.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: netinet/ip.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result configure: WARNING: resolv.h: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: resolv.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: resolv.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result ...

programs/winetest/wine.xs - alloc_thunk()

by Gregg Mattinson

In programs/winetest/wine.xs, there is a function alloc_thunk(). Currently, there is only an implementation for i386. I have created an implementation for sparc, but I can't figure out how to test it. Does anyone know how this function gets called, or if it is still used? I tried "wine winetest.exe.so tests/wine.pl" and that calls some of the other functions in wine.xs, but not alloc_thunk(). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Gregg Mattinson Co-op Developer Sun Microsystems of Canada

Re: AutoCAD2000 again and CreateFiber

by Max

Hmmmm... what's a TEB (or NT_TIB) ??? :-) Btw, I did understand at least why it works setting "win95" as windows version In win95 there aren't fibers in kernel, so they're in a single (short !) dll named W95FIBER.DLL, and wine loads id in win95 mode.... I think I'll take a look at it too :-) Little question... where can I find some info to understand unix page protection schemes ? Need it to look deeper in VirtualQuery functions, it seems to me there's some bug there Alle 20:23, mercoledì 17 luglio 2002, Eric Pouech ha scritto: > Max a écrit : > > Well, after the patch-hack-or whatever on VirtualQuery, AutoCAD2000 began > > coming alive !

I forgot pressing control when scrolling down in Emacs. Usually I detect this myself. This time obviously not. Thanks.

Re: autoconf 2.52

by Jon Griffiths

Hi, > Conversely, I think it's quite reasonable to ask the few developers > that need to change configure to install the latest autoconf, Sounds fair enough. I only got bitten by it when testing the update to winedump for the changes to the build system, I'd never use autoconf normally.

Ok. At least have a small util to convert a string to this format. Sh.

Possible Fix?

by Anthony Tuininga

I installed Dynomite for Windows (from PopCap) into a Wine-only installation and noticed that as I moved the window, the images and sprites were offset by the corresponding amount. I added a return statement into the following file (updated from CVS as of today) and the problem went away almost completely. On occasion repainting still can be problematic but overall things work much better. windows/winpos.c, in function WINPOS_GetWinOffset() I simply returned immediately following the line which sets the X and Y offsets to 0. Now I suspect that the rest of the code is rather necessary in some instances but in this particular case it is getting in the road. Any comments? Anthony
