GDI renderer
by olivier July 7, 2003

July 7, 2003

Hello, I have found a discussion about the build of a new wine GDI renderer with SDL. (http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-devel/2002/01/index.html#564) I would like to know the actual status of it, and how to configure wine to use it in place of the X11 drv? (I already have the 01-sdldrv.tgz) Olivier

Wine build under Solaris x86
by Alan Hargreaves July 7, 2003

July 7, 2003

Before I get too heavily into looking at the issues with ptrace in the server code with Solaris, I should probably check... Is there anyone else out there at all working to try to get this beast built (let alone working) under Solaris x86? alan. -- Alan Hargreaves Senior Technical Support Specialist Phone : +61 2 9844 5379 VOSJEC Engineer Mobile : +61 416 207 573 Product Technical Support (APAC) Fax : +61 2 9418 2143 Sun Microsystems Call Centre: 1 800 555 786 828 Pacific Highway, Gordon NSW 2072 perl -e 'print $i=pack(c5,(41*2),sqrt(7056),(unpack(c,H)-2),oct(115),10);

Word in Hebrew and Wine
by Shachar Shemesh July 7, 2003

July 7, 2003

Hi, I have a pretty good estimate of what needs to be done to get Word supported in Hebrew. The current problems have to do with Word calling "GetKeyboardLang" after each character, and using the result as a basis for interpreting each received character. Currently, this function just returns the system locale, which causes Word to assume each and every letter is a Hebrew one, even the English ones. The results are pretty catastrophic, as people have reported (typing "Hi there everyone" typically results in the screen showing "Hthere everyone i", with "yone" highlighted with green to say it has syntax correction to suggest. The correct is to replace "there" with "they're"). I have been itching to do an overhaul of the Wine keyboard handling for some time. I think the current scheme is overly complicated, and causes problems. This is a major task, but I may be able to recrute some local help. I am a bit worried, however, about the fact that some other people may also working on a similar task at the moment. I know Dmitry said in the past he is rennovating the keyboard a little, and I know codeweavers still hold a patch that will allow UTF-8 input locale to work. I would like to coordinate the effort. If anyone is working on the keyboard right now, please let me know. Shachar -- Shachar Shemesh Open Source integration consultant Home page & resume - http://www.shemesh.biz/

MAX_PALETTES
by Dustin Navea July 7, 2003

July 7, 2003

I was looking thru the website for something easy that is listed as a todo and saw the item for correcting arrays that are done like [256] instead of [MAX_PATH], etc.. Looking thru the sources, in d3d8_private.h MAX_PALETTES is defined as 256 and then used later in the file and I believe in other d3d8 files, while it isnt even mentioned in ddraw files, although almost identical functions are called.. I was wondering if I should go ahead and add in the define for MAX_PALETTES in ddraw.h and then correct the palette definitions/declarations in the ddraw code and submit it.. ===== -- Dustin Navea Minor Contributor, winehq.com Buzilla Janitor, bugs.winehq.com Network Admin, irc.blynk.net (down) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

ShellExecute, bug 22, and MDSN
by Dustin Navea July 6, 2003

July 6, 2003

There was a mistake on my part.. I inadvertently downloaded the 20020710 binaries and reported a bug that has since been halfway fixed.. I will close the bug I opened and give an updated report when I have investigated bug 22 again with the new sources.. ===== -- Dustin Navea Minor Contributor, winehq.com Buzilla Janitor, bugs.winehq.com Network Admin, irc.blynk.net (down) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Shellexecute, bug 22, and MSDN
by Dustin Navea July 6, 2003

July 6, 2003

Looking at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/pl… and then looking at our shlexec.c, I noticed one small difference between the 2 and was wonder if a bug should be filed on it.. In the MSDN docs, it says that if lpOperation is null: "For systems prior to Microsoft Windows 2000, the default verb is used if it is valid and available in the registry. If not, the "open" verb is used. For Windows 2000 and later systems, the default verb is used if available. If not, the "open" verb is used. If neither verb is available, the system uses the first verb listed in the registry." In wine's shlexec.c, if lpOperation is null, we only use the open verb, like so: if (lpOperation == NULL) /* default is open */ lpOperation = "open"; I think this could hinder certain programs, especially if someone would like it to do something besides open the file (like in the case of bug 22, where it is a link, not a file).. This could also be a problem if there is no application associated with the file, since we have no window/tool allowing the user to choose the app... I guess I should add that in the code for shlexec.c we do have handling for links, but it appears to not make it that far as of right now.. So should this be filed as a bug or would it be too difficult to implement a check for the proper verb? ===== -- Dustin Navea Minor Contributor, winehq.com Buzilla Janitor, bugs.winehq.com Network Admin, irc.blynk.net (down) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
