Started playing with Wineserver on mingw/cygwin again
by Steven Edwards Feb. 10, 2003

Feb. 10, 2003

well I made it serial.c before I had to run to work. I'm having good luck getting alot of the objects to compile so far I've only had to kill file.c, ptrace.c, request.c and select.c. Getting this to build and run on Windows is going to be a bitch =) gettimeofday, fork and all of fd and networking is going to be the hard part. I've started a tempory header to see what will need to be implemented in libwine if we want to get wineserver up and running on Windows without cygwin. Cygwin still really needed get/setthreadcontext (hint, hint) Thanks Steven /* I kill'd file.c, ptrace.c, request.c, select.c * * get/set thread context still needs to be done for Mingw and Cygwin * * main.c needs a lot of work */ /* object.h and async.h */ struct timeval{ int tv_sec; int tv_usec; }; /* debugger.c */ #define SIGTRAP NULL /* file.c - doesnt work */ #define O_NONBLOCK 0 #define POLLIN 0 #define POLLOUT 0 #define POLLIN 0 #define POLLOUT 0 /* main.c */ #define SIGPIPE NULL #define SIGHUP NULL #define SIGQUIT NULL /* named_pipe.c */ #define PF_UNIX NULL #define SOCK_STREAM NULL /* object.c */ #define POLLERR 0 #define POLLHUP 0 __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

IPCWorkshop
by Dan Kegel Feb. 10, 2003

Feb. 10, 2003

There's a fun little test app (with source) called IPCWorkshop at http://www.codeproject.com/threads/ipcworkshop.asp I noticed it probably needs a Sleep(500) in its Mailslot receive loop, and a lot of its stuff doesn't seem to work on my Windows Me system, but its "filemapping" and "mailslots" modes do seem to work on Windows Me. (Oddly, "Clipboard" doesn't work for me on Windows Me. This app is fairly new, maybe it's still a bit buggy.) None of its modes seem to work on Wine. Not sure why. In server mode, it never redraws, so the GUI is messed up somehow. I'm sure this app triggers several Wine bugs. Anyway, if anyone's looking for simple test apps that exercise various IPC methods, this one might be worth checking out. - Dan -- Dan Kegel http://www.kegel.com http://counter.li.org/cgi-bin/runscript/display-person.cgi?user=78045

visual studio 6 not happy?
by Dan Kegel Feb. 10, 2003

Feb. 10, 2003

wine cvs doesn't run visual studio 6 especially happily. Building a simple app fails with "Error executing rc.exe". I wonder if this is another example of that named pipe failure... it certainly is calling PeekNamedPipe to beat the band, and http://www.microsoft.com/msj/0698/win320698.htm says that vcspawn.exe (used to run external processes) probably uses named pipes to communicate with msdev. Guess it's back to the commandline for me. Yep, exporting a makefile and building with nmake works better. - Dan -- Dan Kegel http://www.kegel.com http://counter.li.org/cgi-bin/runscript/display-person.cgi?user=78045

Windows API (What I have so far)
by David Miller Feb. 9, 2003

Feb. 9, 2003

I thought a few of you might be interested in the current status of this script, so here is an update. I will attach a copy in case anyone wants to test it, or add functionality or fixes. I'd be interested in the results of any tests, especially if you discover any parsing errors. It is far from complete, but at this stage does the following: - Scan a given path, locating all dll files - Generate an HTML map of dll imports only (sorted, lowercase, stripped of paths) - dumpbin /import and dumpbin /export on all dll files and save the results in imports.txt and exports.txt respectively - parse imports.txt as follows, and save the results in imported_api.txt: DLL name imported DLL imported API - parse exports.txt as follows, and save the results in exported_api.txt: DLL name exported API Future plans: - Create a matrix of data currently in HTML map - Generate HTML cross reference of all imported/exported API - Implement dumping of data into a database (Something queryable, but what?) - Detect and report unimplemented APIs in wine

More on the Treeview
by Drew "DanteAliegri" Ogle Feb. 9, 2003

also, when I replaced the comctl32 with a native, it didn't fix the problem, so I'd think its safe to say that the error is occuring outside comctl32.. -Dante

Tried to install Red Alert - Yuri's Revenge
by David.Goodenough＠DGA.co.uk Feb. 9, 2003

Feb. 9, 2003

and it failed. The installer said that comctl32.dll was too old, did I want a new one, so I said no. They it said that DirectX was a level 0 (well actually a long list of 00.00s), and asked if I wanted to install what looked like version 4 (although the docs with the CD say that it will install 8.0a). When I said no to that the installer quit. This was a Debian unstable system, which is using the latest Wine.deb. So how is it detecting the age of comctl32, and how should I convince it that the dll really is up to date, and do I need to install the front bits of DirectX in order to use the support that Wine is now increasingly providing, or should Wine be advertising its DirectX support differently. This is the first time I have tried to install a DirectX program on the machine, and I do not know quite how I should proceed. Thanks in advance David

Treeview Regression
by Drew "DanteAliegri" Ogle Feb. 9, 2003

Feb. 9, 2003

There has been a treeview regression, since at least 20030115, I assumed someone would take it up, but noone has. I will try to fix it, but a rather simple testcase ( ~200 lines of C ) is at http://open-socket.dyndns.org/~dante/treeview-testcase.tar.bz2 What appears to be happening, is when the dialog recieves a message that is WM_NOTIFY , it excpets the lparam to 1) be LPNMHDR, and lparam->code to be TVN_SELCHANGED. the lparam->code that wine appears to be returning is 0. -Dante

IDA regression again :-)
by Lionel Ulmer Feb. 9, 2003

Feb. 9, 2003

Hi all, Seems that with latest CVS, the ncurses driver 'added' a lot of regressions to IDA... The biggest gripe is that the mouse support is VERY flaky (I can click some times but once it stops working, it seems that I cannot do anymore with it). As I do not know exactly how to select stuff in the GUI using only the keyboard (which seems flaky too as the Backspace and Delete key seem not really to work), I am a bit stuck. How could one help debug this relatively crucial application to help in some D3D / OpenGL investigations ? Lionel PS: we REALLY should be able to use the old slow as hell graphical driver as a fallback.... -- Lionel Ulmer - http://www.bbrox.org/
