Re: Trackbar select range tweaks

If it can help, I can run this on windows server 2003 (Evaluation copy, I would never buy anything from m$).

It comes from this code. #include "windows.h" #include "stdio.h" main() { printf("GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYCAPTION) = %d\n", GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYCAPTION)); } For determing thumb size, I use MS ControlSpy, available here: http://www.microsoft.com/msj/0798/controlspy.aspx That includes binaries. Just run the Trackbar binary, click on "TBM_GETTHUMBLENGTH" in the window on the lower left, and then click the "Send" button. In the window below that button, it should say something like: lResult: 21 (0x15) which means the thumb size is 21.

Re: CVS Update: reactos

by Steven Edwards

There have been some minor additons to ReactOS's pe.h to help identify X-box applications. It is my understanding that X-box applications use a form of directx and a NT like kernel so maybe the WINE project can make use of some of the initial work we are doing to add support these applications.

It makes it easier to find where the software comes from so that one can check for the updated versions and other related resources. Furthermore the user guide is not specific to the case of binary installations and thus has to also cover the case of users who install from source. Maybe the section it's in should just mention that you can skip these steps if you already have binaries. -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)free.fr http://fgouget.free.fr/ Linux, WinNT, MS-DOS - also known as the Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

In the case of the FAQ this is the documentation/faq.sgml file in the Wine CVS sources. The HTML version and the faq.template files are generated from there and thus should not be modified directly. I think we avoid this problem with the rest of the documentation because it is not in the web site's CVS. Further, iirc, the rest of the documentation is now regenerated automatically and daily from the SGML source. We should probably do the same for the FAQ. [...] > Comments ?

Re: Windows API db / find APIs missing for a given app

by dmiller＠ptdprolog.net

If it says "The following applications where found:" but does not list any applications it simply did not find any matches. There are only a couple of apps there at the moment, to test the script. If you want to see how it works just leave the application field empty and it will return all apps in the database. All of the scripts are written in perl. SQL queries are done using perl DBI. My only perl experience is this project so I would guess overall they are not very well optimized. I did index the api field in the database and that helped a lot.
