What happend to "search" on WineHQ
by Boaz Harrosh Nov. 3, 2003

Nov. 3, 2003

I go to WineHQ.org(com) and type "wine" in the "Search WineHQ" text box (bottom right of the page) press "enter" and I get: No matches were found for 'wine' ... (same for any word) Well I think I do remember that it use to work. Even when it did work it did not search the forum archives. Why is that? Free Life Boaz

I came across this function recently, and do not agree with its logic. I would write it like char *strmake(const char *fmt, ...) { int n; size_t size = 100; char *p = xmalloc (size+1); va_list ap; va_start (ap, fmt); n = vsnprintf (p, size, fmt, ap); while (n < 0) { size *= 2; p = xrealloc (p, size+1); n = vsnprintf (p, size, fmt, ap); } if ((size_t)n == size) p[size]=0; va_end (ap); return p; } By the way, either Wine's snprintf implementation is wrong or I do not know how to use it correctly. I am submitting a conformance test... -- Feri.

Crash in dlls/comctl32/treeview.c
by Dmitry Timoshkov Nov. 3, 2003

Nov. 3, 2003

Hello all, I've got a crash in Excel running a custom VB script. A crash log with +treeview is attached. As I see it, TVM_SORTCHILDREN causes firstVisible to become NULL, and on next TVM_SETITEMA message, TREEVIEW_UpdateScrollBars is called, which dereferences infoPtr->firstVisible, which is NULL. I'm not sure whether attached patch is correct or not, but it fixes a crash in Excel. The patch simply prevents TREEVIEW_Sort from setting infoPtr->firstVisible to NULL. Treeview gurus out there any comments? -- Dmitry.

Trillian hangs under wine
by Nikolay Sukharev Nov. 3, 2003

Nov. 3, 2003

I am trying to make Trillian work under wine. It works fine up to the point where I try to drag its window. Then it hangs and I even need to switch to the text mode shell to be able to kill wine processes. The error says : err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x40ef98c0 "x11drv_main.c: X11DRV_CritSection" wait timed out in thread 0009, blocked by 000d, retrying (60 sec) Time:973746 Some research showed me that thread 0009 is trying to poll for new window messages while thread 000d is calling GetCursorPos. The GetCursorPos eventually results in a X11 call and it looks like this call never returns. I built wine from the wine-20031016 sources. I would appreciate if somebody can give my an insight what might be wrong here or where to look. Thanks, Nick Below is the backtrace from winedbg: Thread 0009: =>0 0x401116eb (MSVCRT.DLL.strftime+0x3684b in libc.so.6) (ebp=40850c5c) 1 0x401e227b (NTDLL_wait_for_multiple_objects+0x14f(count=0x0, handles=0x0, flags=0x8, timeout=0x40850d10) [sync.c:1662] in ntdll.dll.so) (ebp=40850cf8) 2 0x401e0b05 (usr1_handler+0x49(__signal=0xa, __context=0x0) [signal_i386.c:1164] in ntdll.dll.so) (ebp=40850d1c) 3 0x400644f8 (MSVCRT.DLL.frexp+0xb98 in libc.so.6) (ebp=40961da8) 4 0x401e227b (NTDLL_wait_for_multiple_objects+0x14f(count=0x1, handles=0x40961e94, flags=0xc, timeout=0x40961eb8) [sync.c:1662] in ntdll.dll.so) (ebp=40961e44) 5 0x401e22f8 (NTDLL.DLL.NtWaitForMultipleObjects+0x50 in ntdll.dll.so) (ebp=40961e6c) 6 0x401e232d (NtWaitForSingleObject+0x25(handle=0x88, alertable=0x0, timeout=0x40961eb8) [sync.c:616] in ntdll.dll.so) (ebp=40961e8c) 7 0x401c942e (RtlpWaitForCriticalSection+0xfe(crit=0x40ef98c0) [critsection.c:197] in ntdll.dll.so) (ebp=40961f20) 8 0x401c963b (RtlEnterCriticalSection+0x77(crit=0x40ef98c0) [critsection.c:1664] in ntdll.dll.so) (ebp=40961f40) 9 0x40edd5ff (wine_tsx11_lock+0x4f [x11drv_main.c:167] in x11drv.dll.so) (ebp=40961f68) 10 0x40eceb9d (process_events+0x21(data=0x40321ea0) [event.c:153] in x11drv.dll.so) (ebp=40961fe0) 11 0x40ececf2 (X11DRV_MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx+0xfe(count=0x1, handles=0x4036250c, timeout=0xffffffff, mask=0x0, flags=0x0) [event.c:195] in x11drv.dll.so) (ebp=40962108) 12 0x40a42509 (GetMessageW+0x195(msg=0x40962288, hwnd=0x0, first=0x100, last=0x20d) [message.c:2363] in user32.dll.so) (ebp=409621b4) 13 0x40edc332 (X11DRV_SysCommandSizeMove+0x3ba(hwnd=0x1002e, wParam=0xf012) [winpos.c:2005] in x11drv.dll.so) (ebp=409622b4) 14 0x40a19c0c (NC_HandleSysCommand+0xb0(hwnd=0x1002e, wParam=0xf012, lParam=0xb0374) [nonclient.c:2152] in user32.dll.so) (ebp=409622e0) 15 0x40a0a70c (DEFWND_DefWinProc+0x834(hwnd=0x1002e, msg=0x112, wParam=0xf012, lParam=0xb0374) [defwnd.c:534] in user32.dll.so) (ebp=40962374) 16 0x40a0abd0 (DefWindowProcA+0x94(hwnd=0x1002e, msg=0x112, wParam=0xf012, lParam=0xb0374) [defwnd.c:863] in user32.dll.so) (ebp=409623a0) 17 0x1001d744 (TOOLKIT.DLL.getMinorVersion+0x1ca4 in TOOLKIT.DLL) (ebp=40a28474) 18 0x0c75ff02 (trillian.exe..rsrc+0xc32bf02) (ebp=6ae58955) Thread 000d: =>0 0x401116eb (MSVCRT.DLL.strftime+0x3684b in libc.so.6) (ebp=42750c5c) 1 0x401e227b (NTDLL_wait_for_multiple_objects+0x14f(count=0x0, handles=0x0, flags=0x8, timeout=0x42750d10) [sync.c:1662] in ntdll.dll.so) (ebp=42750cf8) 2 0x401e0b05 (usr1_handler+0x49(__signal=0xa, __context=0x0) [signal_i386.c:1164] in ntdll.dll.so) (ebp=42750d1c) 3 0x400644f8 (MSVCRT.DLL.frexp+0xb98 in libc.so.6) (ebp=42872190) 4 0x40f53a07 (_end+0x59037 in libX11.so.6) (ebp=428721c0) 5 0x40f5454d (_end+0x59b7d in libX11.so.6) (ebp=42872200) 6 0x40f4a36b (_end+0x4f99b in libX11.so.6) (ebp=42872240) 7 0x40ed6162 (TSXQueryPointer+0x36(a0=0x3c089440, a1=0x93, a2=0x428722a0, a3=0x428722a4, a4=0x428722a8, a5=0x428722ac, a6=0x428722b0, a7=0x428722b4, a8=0x428722b8) [ts_xlib.c:480] in x11drv.dll.so) (ebp=42872274) 8 0x40ed3ede (X11DRV_GetCursorPos+0x56(pos=0x42872314) [mouse.c:529] in x11drv.dll.so) (ebp=428722c4) 9 0x40a0f5d7 (GetCursorPos+0x47(pt=0x42872314) [input.c:479] in user32.dll.so) (ebp=428722d4) 10 0x4186d288 (EVENTS.DLL.setSkin+0x48 in EVENTS.DLL) (ebp=00000000) Small exerpt from the custom trace I used. trace:vasya:wine_tsx11_unlock 0009:*** BEFORE LEAVE CR.SEC.

Good point. Efficiency is important, and my previous script had a lot of unnecessary repeating. I've rewritten it to be shorter and sweeter (and not have 6 if-thens in a row!) #!/bin/bash # Script for DLL downloading if [ "$compress" <> 'tar' ] and if [ "$compress" <> 'tar.gzip' ] and if [ "$compress" <> 'zip' ] and if [ "$compress" <> 'none' ] and if [ "$compress" <> 'tar.bzip2' ] then { echo "Compression format not supported. Exiting." exit 3 } if [ "$compress" == 'none' ] then { $compress = 'dll' } wget -P /var/tmp "$server"/"$serverpath"/"$dllname"."$compress" if [ "$compress" == 'tar.gz' ] then { gzip -d /var/tmp/"$dllname".tar.gz rm /var/tmp/"$dllname".tar.gz } if [ "$compress" == 'tar.bz2' ] then { bzip2 -d /var/tmp/"$dllname".tar.bz2 rm /var/tmp/"$dllname".tar.bz2 } if [ "$compress" <> 'zip' ] and if [ "$compress" <> 'dll' ] then { tar -x -k -f /var/tmp/"$dllname".tar rm /var/tmp/"$dllname".tar } if [ "$compress" == 'zip' ] then { unzip -n /var/tmp/"$dllname".zip -d /var/tmp rm /var/tmp/"$dllname".zip } cp /var/tmp/"$dllname".dll "$dest"/"$dllname".dll exit 0 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Icewind Dale and dirty stacks
by Filip Spacek Nov. 3, 2003

Nov. 3, 2003

Hello, Having nothing to do, I bought Icewind Dale. As my luck would have it, it doesn't run in Wine. So I've spent the weekend trying to figure out why (which is aguably more fun than actually playing the game). It turns out that it allocates a huge structure on the stack (20948 bytes) but it doesn't initialize it properly. My current theory as to why would that work on Windows is that given the size of the thing the space for it is probably freshly faulted in and hence clean. In wine though, this space is already dirtied up (by Xlib initialization). Now of course, this is a program bug, and Wine is not at fault, but I'd still really like to play the game. Would it be possible to somehow run some of the dll initialization on a different stack? Or clean up afterwards? Or if nothing else, does anyone know how to quickly set a chunk of memory to zero in gdb (my current method of using a while loop with a set statement takes about 15 minutes to run). -Filip
