Window opnes on other desktop
by Gerhard W. Gruber May 4, 2003

May 4, 2003

I just noticed this by accident. I closed Agent and it showed the dialog that it purges newsgroups. While it were at it I switched to another desktop and did some work and suddenly the Agent dialog popped up telling me that it now will purge the trash folder (which it does after it cleared the newsgroups). Shouldn't the wine app stay on the same desktop where I started it? I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature, because when I start other apps in one desktop and switch to another before they open any window (i.e. Netscape takes some time) then the window will also be opened on the active desktop instead from where I launched it. -- Gerhard Gruber Für jedes menschliche Problem gibt es immer eine einfache Lösung: Klar, einleuchtend und falsch.

Assertion `!sem->obj.head' failed in release_semaphore
by Rein Klazes May 4, 2003

May 4, 2003

Hi, Starting newsbin with messages that where marked for download in a previous run ( so it will start downloading immediately at start-up) freezes after the main window is opened. The last lines of a +relay,+server trace are: | 0009:Call kernel32.ReleaseSemaphore(00000064,00000001,40732a14) ret=0041b55e | 0009: release_semaphore( handle=0x64, count=00000001 ) | wineserver: semaphore.c:96: release_semaphore: Assertion `!sem->obj.head' failed. (full 1.4 MB trace at http://www.xs4all.nl/~rklazes/temp/nb.log.bz2 ) Funny, even if the bug can be reproducebly triggered by a message that is to be downloaded ,nothing of this appears in the log: no winsock call is made. Trying with several old wines, reveals that this bug is at least 3 months old, apparently not related to the new threading code. I've searched through the trace and the server code (it must be a server bug, doesn't it?) but see nothing obviously wrong. Any suggestions? Rein. -- Rein Klazes rklazes(a)xs4all.nl

current directories
by Eric Pouech May 4, 2003

May 4, 2003

while looking at the split of kernel and ntdll, I ran into an interesting point: - our current {Get|Set}CurrentDirectory functions behave like the win16 implementation, and maintain a/ a default drive, b/ a default directory on each drive - Win32, on the other end, just maintains a current directory. When using a relative path with a drive letter (like c:foo), win32 actually uses the directory on drive c:, defined at startup (and passed into the =c: environment variable) - the =#: (# in [A,Z]) environment variable is never changed (even when changing the current directory) I checked this behavior on Win98 and Win2K. I'm surprised noone ever run into this bug before (or this is something that is known for quite some time ?) A+ -- Eric Pouech

Re: Add wglGetExtensionsStringARB to opengl

Well, I think the best way would be to do something like that : Index: dlls/opengl32/opengl32.spec =================================================================== RCS file: /home/wine/wine/dlls/opengl32/opengl32.spec,v retrieving revision 1.19 diff -u -r1.19 opengl32.spec --- dlls/opengl32/opengl32.spec 20 Mar 2003 03:53:13 -0000 1.19 +++ dlls/opengl32/opengl32.spec 3 May 2003 20:41:57 -0000 @@ -6,6 +6,7 @@ @ stdcall wglGetCurrentContext() @ stdcall wglGetCurrentDC() @ stdcall wglGetExtensionsStringEXT() +@ stdcall wglGetExtensionsStringARB() wglGetExtensionsStringEXT @ stdcall wglGetLayerPaletteEntries(long long long long ptr) @ stdcall wglGetProcAddress(str) @ stdcall wglMakeCurrent(long long) Could you try if this works for you ? Basically, your patch is wrong because you return OpenGL extensions whereas this function should return WGL extensions (and as we do not support any for now, we return an empty string). Moreover, Wine already supported 'wglGetExtensionsStringEXT' (needed by some games), so I just told here that 'wglGetExtensionsStringARB' is a duplicate of the 'wglGetExtensionsStringEXT' function.

No console output?
by Juan Lang May 4, 2003

May 4, 2003

I'm trying to run a console program with wineconsole, and I see fixme output from the DLL I'm working on, but no output from my program. Any patches I should be applying? Wine20030408 on RH "phoebe" (8.1-ne-9 beta). FWIW, I'm working on iphlpapi.dll. I might take a crack at consolidating some duplicated code in netapi32, winsock, and wsock32 if I have time.

How to add a new DLL?
by Gerhard W. Gruber May 3, 2003

May 3, 2003

I was just trying to add a new dll to wine (w95in32.dll and w95inf16.dll). In order to achieve this I looked into some other dlls and copied the Makefile and Makefile.in. The I created the specfile for the dll and adjusted the Makefile. At least that was what I think I did, but it always complains that I have to run configure. So I adjusted configure as well and rerun it, but i stil get this error. Is there somewhere an explanation so I can look how I have to configure Makefile.in. The Makefile will be generated from this through configure, right? -- Gerhard Gruber Für jedes menschliche Problem gibt es immer eine einfache Lösung: Klar, einleuchtend und falsch.

Few comments: -- Please send patches in the right format: http://winehq.org/?page=sending_patches -- I don't think I like yet another forum. It unnecessarily dilutes them. We have the newsgroup, wine-*, they should be enough.
