Fix for notepad and winecfg losing focus
by Pavel Roskin Oct. 1, 2003

Oct. 1, 2003

Hello! Our notepad has a bug that causes it to lose focus on startup. In order to initialize the new document, WinMain() calls DIALOG_FileNew(), which focuses the editor subwindow. The problem is that it happens before ShowWindow() is called on the main window. As a result, focusing the subwindow causes "activation" of its parent without actually showing it. This leaves the code in dlls/user/focus.c in the confused state. When ShowWindow() is called, the window is not brought to foreground because it's "already active". Then set_active_window() decides to draw the inactive caption because the window is not in foreground. Windows 2000 doesn't show this problem. Notepad and winecfg are focused properly on startup. I think there are many solutions to this problem. For example, the check for visibility could be moved from SetActiveWindow() to the lower-level set_active_window(). The attached patch is minimally intrusive. This decreases its chances of breaking anything, but it may not be the best radical solution. If SetFocus() finds an invisible window while looking for the ultimate parent, it fails. The same is already done for minimized and disabled windows. The patch has been successfully tested in the non-managed and desktop modes. The managed node is not affected because the captions are not shown. Cygwin setup (http:/www.cygwin.com/setup.exe) is also positively affected. =========================== --- dlls/user/focus.c +++ dlls/user/focus.c @@ -258,6 +258,7 @@ HWND WINAPI SetFocus( HWND hwnd ) HWND parent; LONG style = GetWindowLongW( hwndTop, GWL_STYLE ); if (style & (WS_MINIMIZE | WS_DISABLED)) return 0; + if (!(style & WS_VISIBLE)) return 0; parent = GetAncestor( hwndTop, GA_PARENT ); if (!parent || parent == GetDesktopWindow()) break; hwndTop = parent; =========================== -- Regards, Pavel Roskin

Does anyone know about WM_SETFOCUS and EN_SETFOCUS
by Bill Medland Oct. 1, 2003

Oct. 1, 2003

Is anyone out there an expert in Windows focus handling? I have problems with our application and the focus handling in places. Basically it seems to me that there is some sort of logic in windows whereby the code calls PostMessage (WM_SETFOCUS) but the result is that the parent of the target window receives WM_COMMAND EN_SETFOCUS instead. Does anyone know anything about such translations? -- Bill Medland ACCPAC International, Inc. medbi01(a)accpac.com Corporate: www.accpac.com Hosted Services: www.accpaconline.com

First, to generate summaries I have to correlate files anyway, which *is* problematic already, and having a master file could only make it simpler and also make the cause more obvious if some inconsistency is found. Second, we want to include build failure reports, which can be lengthy (eg. compiler logs), and do not seem to belong to the test results. For an example, see how the dsound test build failure is noted on the page. The summary line could also easily be customized. > Maybe we can simply add a flag to the tests so that the > first thing they do when we run them is to output all this > information How is it better than recording the info at the build stage? Since it has nothing to do with the running environment, that would also feel more natural to me. Sure, all the info could be included in the reports, but I see no point in bloating them with too much static info for little (if any) benefit. One more thing, I really do not have the faintest idea about how to integrate this into the WineHQ page. There may be reasons there, too, like eg. the need to notify the system about a new build, which could be done by uploading the information skeleton... Feel free to persuade me, I am not attached.

ssl and kerberos
by Vincent Béron Oct. 1, 2003

Oct. 1, 2003

I need some help with configure.ac. In RH8 and 9, openssl is compiled with krb5 support. The problem comes from the fact that the kerberos files are not under /usr/include, rather /usr/kerberos/include. So when ssl.h includes krb5.h, it can't find it. It'd need to be detected and add /usr/kerberos/include to the list of EXTRAINCL if compiling with only ssl.h is not enough. (I never noticed before because I had recompiled openssl locally to not use kerberos at all, and on the other machine I never looked that closely as everything is installed stock) Once that is fixed, it will trigger another bug in the kerberos part of openssl, namely that FAR is used, but we'll get to that bridge another time.

Re: Translating WINE using dedicated tools
by Ivan Leo Murray-Smith Oct. 1, 2003

Once wine has final docs this would be great, the wine docs will change before 1.0 (The wine-user docs are config-file orientated, and many other things may change before 1.0), the wine-devel docs don't really need translating as most developers know English, and the wine programs and dlls can be translated manually without any difficulty, but once we have a final version of wine user docs and winehq web site this tool could be very useful.
