I think it should be made clear that Wine is useless on MacOS anyway, even if you do have the source and try to recompile for WineLib. It might simply be better to say, MacOS is *not* supported in any shape or form, and won't be until somebody does the large amount of work necessary to make it happen. > - add some URLs, correct URL handling > - remove linux.corel.com, as it's DEAD :-\ May it rest in peace.

I found a really, really old version (before the screenshots) on my webserver. It is a bit difficult for me at this point since I don't have a PC. I Need to scramble now to get some money together to either rescue the laptop (which is quite old anyway) or just buckle down and get the desktop I've wanted for a while. In the meantime I can send what I found, which I think is just a couple of dialogs (nothing more :() to anybody who is interrested. *sigh* (Non-child-friendly words deleted.) Greetings, Jaco

In the case of a zero infoPtr it zeros the return pointers not the return value as I am sure is intended. A patch like the one below shown the likely intended code. --- wine-20020710/controls/scroll.c Sat Jun 1 07:06:46 2002 +++ wine/controls/scroll.c Wed Jul 24 16:52:54 2002 @@ -1730,8 +1730,8 @@ if (!(infoPtr = SCROLL_GetScrollInfo( hwnd, nBar ))) { - if (lpMin) lpMin = 0; - if (lpMax) lpMax = 0; + if (lpMin) *lpMin = 0; + if (lpMax) *lpMax = 0; return FALSE; } if (lpMin) *lpMin = infoPtr->MinVal; > > + return (BOOL)infoPtr; Will Fix Andrew

Report after porting a windows app to WINE

by Mike Engelhardt

Dear WINE developers, I develop an MS windows app and just got it working under WINE/Linux. It's call LTspice/SwitcherCADIII. It's a free schematic capture/SPICE simulator obtainable from www.linear.com/software. I've noticed a few things about WINE that might help you improve it. WINE can confuse SendMessage() with PostMessage(). LTspice uses SendMessage to handshake between threads sometimes. Wine usually obeys the difference, but treated some SendMessage calls like a PostMessage. My workaround was to poll volatile global variables. I needed to add some redraws to clear up some differences between WINE and Windows dialog box updates. This was for a tab control that make different controls on the pane visible or not depending on tab selection. Also LTspice draws directly to the screen and carefully counts the number of times it XOR'ed something with the screen. That behaved a bit different between WINE and Windows. Again, I found workarounds for most of it. I'm not sure, but maybe it's just a difference between obeying the SetROP2() setting for CDC::SetPixel() calls. The version of LTspice I put up on the web today, 2.01c, works quite well under WINE/Linux. The main problem with it is that the RoboHelp isn't working. Any advice there? A few other WINE issues: 1. The icons drawn on Property sheet tabs have a black background in WINE. In Windows it's the background color. You can see the problem on the Tools=>Control Panel tab icons. 2. The resize grip on the lower right hand corner of resizeable dialogs is drawn like a scrollbar. The "proper" windows method to draw these resize grips is to use a scroll bar created like this: CScrollBar m_Grip; char OldResizableGrip[] = "OldResizableGrip"; LRESULT CALLBACK GripWindowProc(HWND hwnd, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam,LPARAM lParam) { if(WM_NCHITTEST == msg) return(HTBOTTOMRIGHT); // the mouse cursor that goes with a grip on the bottom right of a window HANDLE oldWndProc = GetProp(hwnd, OldResizableGrip); if(WM_DESTROY == msg) // unsubclass { RemoveProp(hwnd, OldResizableGrip); SetWindowLong(hwnd, GWL_WNDPROC, (LONG) oldWndProc); } return(CallWindowProc((WNDPROC) oldWndProc, hwnd, msg, wParam,lParam)); } BOOL CSelectWaveformsDlg::OnInitDialog() { CDialog::OnInitDialog(); SetAllListBoxItems(); CRect rect(0, 0, GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXVSCROLL),GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYHSCROLL)); m_Grip.Create(WS_CHILD | WS_CLIPSIBLINGS | SBS_SIZEGRIP | WS_VISIBLE,rect, this, AFX_IDW_SIZE_BOX); CWnd *resizeWnd = GetDlgItem(AFX_IDW_SIZE_BOX); if(resizeWnd) { CRect rect, rect2; resizeWnd->GetWindowRect(&rect); GetClientRect(rect2); rect2.left = rect2.right - rect.Width(); rect2.top = rect2.bottom - rect.Height(); resizeWnd->MoveWindow(&rect2, FALSE); ::SetProp(m_Grip, OldResizableGrip, (HANDLE) ::GetWindowLong(m_Grip, GWL_WNDPROC)); ::SetWindowLong(m_Grip, GWL_WNDPROC, (LONG) GripWindowProc); } return(TRUE); } 3. Function key F6 is not trapped. 4. The cursor colors are off. For example, the voltage probe cursor should have a red body. In WINE it's black. The sleeve of the pointing hand is blue, in WINE it's black. 5. Font's aren't always correct. There's two types for schematics, "Arial" and "New Courier". The Arial can become italic depending on the size required. I would like to know if there is a way to determine if my app is running under WINE under runtime. That way I can work around more of these problems without imparing its performance under MS Windows. If you know the answer, please e-mail me directly. --Mike Engelhardt pmte(a)concentric.net

Enviroment variable formats

by J. Grant

Hello, While converting some paths, i had to frequently modify case.. Would it be possible for the fake wine drives use lower case names for their directorys by default? In MS-Windows different case is not a different file name. So I don't believe it will not make any difference to the program. The "config" has a mixture of all uppercase, and lowercase etc From wcmd there is also a mixture in the environment vars: COMSPEC=C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\wcmd.exe PATH=d:\vs\vc98\bin;d:\vs\common\msdev98\bin;c:\windows;c:\windows\system TEMP=E:\ TMP=E:\ windir=C:\WINDOWS winsysdir=C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM USERPROFILE=C:\windows\Profiles\Administrator SYSTEMROOT=C:\WINDOWS the vars would be best in uppercase too IMO, as they are not differentiated. What do you think? Regards JG
