Screen shots are fine. Traces with "+relay,+message,+tid,+win" are also great for finding these type of problems. Is the application available in a demo version?? Guy

HEADER order and index issue

by Medland, Bill

Dear all Before I spend days trying to find out, can someone tell me straight off? There is a problem with the comctl32 header control and I want to know which is the correct solution. The result is that columns af the associated list control are sometimes put in the wrong place. Here's why! It is a known issue that the first column of a listctrl is left-justified. Therefore the Microsoft-accepted way to proceded with the list control is to add a blank left column, add the columns after that with whatever justification is desired and then delete the first column. Assume we aren't doing any clever column reordering. As the columns are added their headers' orders are equal to the indices. But then the first is removed. When we get to HEADER_Refresh it goes to display them in the correct order; good. However there is an implicit assumption in the code that given n columns the orders there will be one column with order 0, one with 1, ... one with n-1. So 1. Is that assumption invalid? If so then I'll change the code to display the columns in the specified order, assuming that the orders may not be sequential. 2. Is that assumption valid? If so then I'll change it so that deleting a column will modify the orders of the remaining ones. Bill

We already have Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, Solaris... we should have ReactOs too (and maybe push this to the Buzilla team too ;-). The '9xism' keyword is quite independent from that and may be useful. I'm not entirely sure though: we don't want to be too fine grained either. If we start this way we may end up with keywords for each general task: dllseparation, strict-compile, window-management, etc. That may get confusing... -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)free.fr http://fgouget.free.fr/ "Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math." -- unknown "Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates." -- WE7U

I see notepad for wine just as a quick default way to view files. People will probably use there favorite *nix editors. >From POV of ReactOS it may play much more important role.

I will do that then...we have wineism, unixism, 9xism and so on. Thanks Steven __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Sign up for SBC Yahoo!

I wouldnt recommend this as ReactOS will be adopting some of the wine/programs including help. Now that Eric P has fixed winehlp I'm sure we can find someone sooner or later that will write a help file for this and other applications at some point.

Re: warcraft 3

by Matthieu Foillard

i finally made warcraft III working : 1. rename the Movies folder as Jesse Allen did. 2. get winex from cvs, then patch srcs with http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-patches/2002/06/0041.html 3. configure wine using ./configure --enable-opengl ..., then build it. 4. run warcraft using : wine /path/War3.exe ( the -opengl doesn't work for me) 5. enjoy ! -- m.f.
