Re: stricmp

by Shachar Shemesh

Assuming this is a winelib app that is compiled within the wine source tree, what do I need to do (both makefile and include wise) to make it compile? I tried adding msvcrt to "IMPORTS", but if I try to include "msvcrt/string.h", I get tons of conflicts with other includes over WCHAR and such. Help? SH. Dimitrie O.

running confirmance tests, question

by Sylvain Petreolle

Looking at http://fgouget.free.fr/wine/tests-en.shtml, I downloaded & ran the precompiled tests. Are them updated to ensure results in sync with the current CVS ? Is there a way to compile tests under Cygwin ? Looking into doc doesnt say that. What data should be reported when seeing "invalid test" in current results on the web page (running XP here) ?

I would assume that the changing of C:\ to C:\\ wouldn't majority break applications, but I don't know the way in which apps use the returns from this. It is possible that length could be checked, in which case things would break, but at least no buffer overflows will happen. So, I believe using the 2k/xp method would probably work. -Dante

Either way, Happy (if belated) > Holidays to everyone who celebrates a holiday. :-) Presumably, it's a vacation. I'm on vacation in Wisconsin ATM, and having a blast. It's amusing that, for Alexandre, a vacation means getting away from wine, whereas for me, a vacation means I can finally devote my attention to it :) Anyhow, I plan to hold back on submitting "official" patches for the moment, since Alexandre's queue looks quite large already, although I may post my work to wine-devel once it reaches a stable state. As usual, I may need some guidance :( I've been working on tests for rpcrt4.dll. Some interesting things have come up, which I'll be adressing later once I have a full list of problems I encountered (the good news is that nothing insurmountable has come up so far). As for cabinet.dll, I'm unable to run my normal testing regimen, which requires broadband, and I have only very slow modem connectivity here in the middle of nowhere. So, I plan to whip up a test for this as well (again there may be some issues that come up...), which will allow me to make changes without fear of massive breakage. Have a good new year! I hope everyone is having a good time and getting some much-deserved R&R. Perhaps it's always been this way, and I'm just impressed because I am a newcomer, but 2002 seems to have been a superbly productive year for wine, so congrats and thanks to everyone for all the hard work and smart thinking! My new years resolution is to keep plugging away at rpcrt4.dll and rpcss.exe, and to read up lots on COM/DCOM internals so that I can build the right bridges that eventually, these parts of wine might actually become useful in conjunction with wine's COM implementation.

However unless a real-world application depends on these differences Wine does not try to emulate all these differences. What if we just implement the Windows XP behavior?

The applications are supposed to be linked statically with the thread-safe version of the debug C library but that one was not available on one of the machines I compiled on so I changed the setting. I should change it back. However a search for 'msvcrtd.dll' on google should help you out. > msvcrt_test.exe/file > 2 executed, 0 todo, 4 failures The above result looks wrong. 4 failures for only two tests?

Re: File locking ... need info

by Mike Robinson

It sounds to me like the file-locking code I am looking for has "already been done" and/or "was rejected" at some time in the past. I'm probably not the best qualified to do this if it has already been done. But in order to run databases on Wine, I need it. Please advise. [personal reply because I don't subscribe yet.]
