text edit box not painting text ( on form startup )
by Doug Herbert March 9, 2005

March 9, 2005

( I have posted a similiar question in wine-users, don't flame me for doing so, just thinking about this some more, perhaps it may be more a developer question ) Ok, I have a windows app, that runs under wine fine - not quite. This app has a form, with many text field edit boxes on. Quite often these edit boxes already have text values, ie. they are not empty - there is a database behind the form. Anyway, the form shows on the screen, but the text within the edit fields is invisible, until you activate each edit box component. When you leave one edit box to the next, the text remains visible. It seems like the repainting is not working, on initial startup of the form. As a way to debug this database app ( I don't have the source code for it ) I wrote a real basic form app in Visual Studio, with two edit boxes, with data in each. Now this basic app shows the text values immediately on startup. So there must be something different that the database app is not doing. I then ran wine using 'wine --debugmsg +edit programname' for both app's. I see both logging 'Creating ANSI edit control, style = xxxxx' but the style reference is different between apps - I am not sure if this the cause or not. The problem app reports style = 54011104 and the basic app shows style = 50010080. Can somebody explain what this style reference means and how do I force an app to use a certain style of edit box ? What other wine class debugmsg types should I use to narrow down the source of this problem ? Is there anyway I can check to see how the database app is repainting text within the text edit components ? Regards Doug Herbert. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Wine history draft
by Brian Vincent (C) Jan. 27, 2004

Jan. 27, 2004

I put together the following: http://users.theshell.com/~vinn/wine-history.html There's two major additions I'd like to see and I don't think I'm capable of doing them: 1) Wine history from 1994 - 1999 with a specific emphasis on changes to the architecture, design decisions that got discarded, developers who've come and gone. 2) Specific quotes from over the years. I sort of put some examples of that in the document above. Humorous quotes would be especially nice. If no one has any suggestions then I'll likely just remove the existing ones and add the information to the relevant paragraphs. I'm also thinking of adding a paragraph on the tools and programs developed for Wine. Comments / suggestions / criticisms? --------------- Brian Vincent Copper Mountain Telecom vincentb(a)coppercolorado.com

Hi folks, I've finally managed to do the table I've promised for so long. My appologies for the delay. This has been mind numbing work, and as such I haven't payed that much attention to the values I've filled in those columns. Please send me your comments so I can post a final version of this to the WineHQ site soon. Note: best viewed in a web browser, but an editor that can display about 150 columns would do just fine as well. -- Dimi.

Window refresh problem with GroupBox and Tabs
by George Marshall Oct. 21, 2003

Oct. 21, 2003

Hi I've already submitted this bug to the wine bugzilla but I'm posting it here as well 'cause... oh well you know. Pls. look at the end of the message for .gifs Bug 1689 follows: I've got an application which purpose is to just reproduce the wine bug I'm gonna explain below. There is, basically, a window, a tab control with four tabs, some GroupBoxes and a few editboxes. (Please, see the attached .gif to get an idea). Here we go with the interesting part... If you run the application you'll realize that some editboxes are not drawn at all and some other not correctly drawn (Expecially if you go through the tabs...) Now if you minimize and then raise this window or drag part of it out of the screen and then back in, everything in it is correctly "painted". The pic tabwin_ok.gif shows the application correctly drawn, while in tabwin_bad.gif you'll see the application in its bad behavior (Like described above). Another interesting thing to note is that if you go through the tabs backward( from the last one to the first one ) the window contents is correctly drawn, not if you go from the first tab to the last one. This is always reproducible. This bug is 100% reproducible with Wine 20030813, 20030709, 20030618 (the versions I could work with...) I'm actually trying to fix this by myself (an ugly workaround will do the job as well) but any help to get me to the right direction will be appriciated. You're more than welcome to ask for any debug or strace log. Thanks. http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=359&action=view http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=360&action=view

uxtheme.dll
by Kevin Oct. 3, 2003

Oct. 3, 2003

I started work porting a windows app using winelib, and hit an issue relating to the fact that there is currently no implementation of uxtheme.dll (and more importantly, no headers, of which would be enough to compile the app as it dynamically loads all the uxtheme dlls as needed, and falls back gracefully) Because of this, I've been thinking about beginning an implementation of uxtheme.dll. I am curious if someone has already taken up this task, or if anyone any opinions on this topic. Thanks Kevin

First, to generate summaries I have to correlate files anyway, which *is* problematic already, and having a master file could only make it simpler and also make the cause more obvious if some inconsistency is found. Second, we want to include build failure reports, which can be lengthy (eg. compiler logs), and do not seem to belong to the test results. For an example, see how the dsound test build failure is noted on the page. The summary line could also easily be customized. > Maybe we can simply add a flag to the tests so that the > first thing they do when we run them is to output all this > information How is it better than recording the info at the build stage? Since it has nothing to do with the running environment, that would also feel more natural to me. Sure, all the info could be included in the reports, but I see no point in bloating them with too much static info for little (if any) benefit. One more thing, I really do not have the faintest idea about how to integrate this into the WineHQ page. There may be reasons there, too, like eg. the need to notify the system about a new build, which could be done by uploading the information skeleton... Feel free to persuade me, I am not attached.

"Start menu" (continued ...)
by Robert van Herk Sept. 30, 2003

Sept. 30, 2003

Hi all... As I understand, right now there are various "standards" on how to write menus for Linux, that are incompatible. That would mean that writing a "grand unified ;-)" start menu client as I discussed before is currently impossible. What could be made already though, is a Wine deamon that talks to shell32.dll internally and input/outputs with pipes to some linux client, in order to serve the start menu items. This would link the Windows start menu to Linux, in a tidy way. So the idea is that the Windows program's output could be piped to some Linux client that actually creates the menu dynamically, so it stays in continuous synchronization with your Start menu directory. The Linux client cannot be made unified yet, but I suppose I could at least write a client for KDE. It wouldn't be to messy to add other clients later for other desktop enviroments, since the deamon does not have to change in order to do so. That is, only the neccesairy thingies change. From looking at the help files I suppose KPanelAppMenu could do the trick. Would such a system be appreciated by the you people? Or do you think I should wait untill a better standarization is available? Or do you think creating a Windows deamon and a Linux client is too much overkill for such a feature? Also, if this feature would be handy, does anyone have expirience with the KPanelAppMenu? I can't get the thingy to work yet... Grtz, Robert

Re: Script to compile Wine programs on Windows

Sept. 30, 2003

> I don't think that's a real problem, these files don't change > often. It certainly doesn't justify adding a complicated > infrastructure to deal with it. Indeed, I said, and I let it go. But thinking a little more about it, I don't see how you solve the problem with the manual stuff. As I understand it, the problem we need to solve is as follows: -- store rule in Make.rules.in -- handle multiple .rc files per Makefile -- rebuild .res file automatically if .rc or .bmp change Now, in my proposal we have: In Make.rules .rc.extract: bin2res $< && touch $@ %.res: %.rc %.extract $(WRC) -o $@ $< In make depend: bitmap1.bmp bitmap2.bmp bitmap3.bmp: rsrc.extract rsrc.res: bitmap1.bmp bitmap2.bmp bitmap3.bmp rsrc.extract: rsrc.rc The only complication here is the .extract file which allows us to split the dependencies from the rules. The complicated stuff are the dependencies, but you need those anyway. A simple marker file is a small price to pay for the convenience... If you think we can keep it simpler, can you please tell me a bit more of what you have in mind? How are we going to use that $(RCBINARIES) if we have more than one .rc file per Makefile? -- Dimi.

What I'm talking about would be, like you say, a Windows daemon that servers the icons and pathes. The client and server would communicate with each other via a pipe or something like that. The client(s) would be a gnome vfs library, the KDE equivilent, or perhaps even plugins for other desktops. To make it easier, i guess you could just make the windows daemon enumerate the .lnk files in Windows/Start Menu first, then once you have that working, make it query the shell instead. The appropriate code from Gnome to look at is in the gnome cvs: :pserver:anonymous(a)anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome the module names are: gnome-vfs gnome-vfs-extras gnome-panel I was looking at xml-rpc for the protocol to use on the pipe, but that might be a bit of an overkill, and it could be easier to write the protocol yourself. http://www.xmlrpc.com/directory/1568/implementations If you are going to use xml-rpc, make sure to choose an implementation that is LGPL compatible.

wine & ccache
by Dimitrie O. Paun Sept. 30, 2003

Sept. 30, 2003

Hi folks, Just wanted to let people know that ccache works rather well with wine. On my lowly 600MHz Pentium box, it takes about 1h to compile, after a make clean. Second time through it takes about 1/4h to do the same thing, 75% faster! (As an added bonus, CPU utilization dropped from 86% to 60%) A nice thing would be to also be able to generate a top Makefile that knows all about the project, and we no longer do the recursive descent. It takes my box almost 20 seconds to do a 'make -s' after a full build. Not sure how doable this is, but I'm sure that things would be way faster if everything would be in one big Makefile. Probably I'm just going to end up buying a faster box before this gets implemented though :) How long does it take to do a 'time make -s' after a full build on one of the beefier boxes? -- Dimi.

Start menu (especially for Alexandre Julliard)
by Robert van Herk Sept. 30, 2003

Sept. 30, 2003

OK people, As I understand (from the explanation by Russell Howe (thanx:-))), there is a script called wineshelllink that is supposed to install the created start menu items in your KDE menu. First of all: this script does not seem to do anything on my installation (Slackware 9). Are there known problems with this script? Second: from looking at the script it seems that this menu is not synchronized with the actual contents of your start menu, which would seem more fancy to me. Because Windows users will be aquainted with the fact that the Start menu directory actually contains the contents of the start menu. What I would propose is a system in which the contents of the wine menu would be in continuous synchronization with your start menu. That would mean: * Less error prone coding (no need for extra scripts etc) * More forward functionality (moving in the folder will actually result in moving in the menu as well) * Better support for applications (links that are not written through api calls will actually show up as well) * Ability to copy links between Windows installation and Wine installation Wouldn't you agree such a system would be better?

Trouble installing MS SQLserver 2000 Client Tools
by Craig Davison Sept. 30, 2003

Sept. 30, 2003

Hi, I've been trying to install the SQLserver Client Tools with Wine 20030911 (on Redhat 9). The setup process fails near the beginning because it cannot install MDAC ("Setup is installing Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) ..."). It exits with a dialog that says "Installation of the Microsoft Data Access Components package failed. (-1)". The following console messages are displayed: fixme:process:CreateProcessA (F:\standard\x86\other\sqlredis.exe,...): CREATE_SEPARATE_WOW_VDM ignored fixme:win32:PE_CreateModule Security directory ignored fixme:process:CreateProcessA (E:\IXP001.TMP\setupre.exe,...): NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS ignored fixme:string:MultiByteToWideChar MB_USEGLYPHCHARS not supported fixme:string:MultiByteToWideChar MB_USEGLYPHCHARS not supported fixme:string:MultiByteToWideChar MB_USEGLYPHCHARS not supported fixme:string:MultiByteToWideChar MB_USEGLYPHCHARS not supported I can't install MDAC standalone (MDAC_TYP.EXE from microsoft's website) either, but I don't think that matters because SQLserver setup will always try to install MDAC. Note that I have IE 5.5SP2 installed, and I think DCOM98 (I can't tell if that failed or succeeded) according to instructions in the WineHQ appdb. Wine is emulating "win98". Any hints? Thanks

Fix for bug 640 - moving thin frames leaves mess
by Pavel Roskin Sept. 30, 2003

Sept. 30, 2003

Hello! I've made a patch for http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=640 I'm sending it here because I don't 100% sure it's ready for wine-patches. But the patch fixes an important problem and I don't want it to be unnoticed. On certain versions of XFree86 (4.2.1 + Raveon 7000/VE), focus rectangles are painted in white. Also, windows with thin frames (including all popup windows) create mess when dragged, except in when managed mode. It appears that GXxor value used in graphics/x11drv/graphics.c is misinterpreted - instead of xoring the background with the pen color, the pen color is painted as is. Another xoring doesn't hide the rectangle, thus creating mess of white dotted rectangles. The radical fix would be to avoid GXxor completely, but I'm leaving it to gurus and I'm not sure if it's needed. Fortunately, there is a correct and justifiable fix on the higher level. The focus rectangle (e.g. the rectangle around active buttons) should be painted using the system text color. Xoring this color with background is wrong. Even on systems where it works, it changes the color from black to dark gray (light gray xor white), although not too much to notice it. DrawFocusRect() has been changed to use R2_COPYPEN mode. On the other hand, draw_moving_frame() should use xor, so using DrawFocusRect() is wrong there, once the later is fixed. PatBlt() with PATINVERT works just fine with buggy XFree86 and it's already used for thick frames. The patch uses a checkered brush to imitate the dotted line. The result is very close to what I see on Windows 2000 - dotted line of one pixel wide using inverted color. In fact, the frame seems to be redrawn faster and smoother than without the patch on the system without the bug. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin

Hi Jerry, With your patch applied, I get a write access to a NULL pointer when trying to get sound with dsound (winmm tests are running ok.) Since I was using precompiled RPMs from freshrpms.net when doing the first try, I switched to 0.9.7 sources. Same result. I attached a trace from a run of wine dsound_test.exe.so dsound --debugmsg +wave,+dsound,+dsound3d Could you have a look on this ? ===== Sylvain Petreolle (spetreolle_at_users_dot_sourceforge_dot_net) ICQ #170597259 Say NO to software patents Dites NON aux brevets logiciels "What if tomorrow the War could be over ?"

decompiling
by Ivan Leo Murray-Smith Sept. 29, 2003

Sept. 29, 2003

Hi list, to translate the wine dlls to italian, my idea was to just get the strings from a disassembled m$ dll. Also, the text strings in wine dlls are a little different here and there respect to windows, and I was thinking that it would be a good idea to uniform them, can I do this or would it be a DMCA violation (Not that I care about the DMCA but the main cvs server is in the US)?

> Of course, now that I know Lionel is going to host this on the ski slopes, > I'm beginning to be willing to go over there...<grin> Now that would be a compelling reason to go to Europe, even if Lionel snowboards. No one has mentioned France yet as a location but it seems like a lot of you live there. I also know this ski resort in Colorado that has some pretty nice conference facilities - dedicated T1, wifi, lots of conference rooms. I think I could get a good deal on it - probably just for the cost of catering. For anyone who skis I can get cheap lift tickets. Likewise, I can get a deal on lodging, but it wouldn't be that great ($80 USD /night or so). However, I don't think Colorado is as convenient as Minneapolis and the few $$$ saved on facilities probably wouldn't justify it. The one nice thing about Minneapolis is the major airport closeby - Northwest is the major carrier there and they partner with KLM. A quick look on Travelocity shows tickets for under $600 USD (under 500 Euro?) for airfare from various European cities to Minneapolis. Despite what Jeremy says about Minneapolis, I don't think anyone from Europe will be surprised by cold temperatures. If you're used to seeing snow on the ground it's not much different.. except for the times when your eyelids freeze shut. I agree with Jeremy that having dual conferences doesn't sound as appealing. --------------- Brian Vincent Copper Mountain Telecom vincentb(a)coppercolorado.com

winebuild & Winelib
by Dimitrie O. Paun Sept. 29, 2003

Sept. 29, 2003

I am sorry, but I'm going to ask this without RTF{M,C}: 1. Building Winelib DLLs We need the .spec file, I know. But can we also use a .def file instead (without relay support, of course). My understanding is that the extra information in the .spec file is needed only for relay debugging... If we are to ask people for extra work to create Winelib DLLs, I think we can get away with a .def file, but not with a .spec file (no tool support in Windows, etc.) 2. Linking Winelib apps with Windows (PE) DLLs Is this possible? We will not be able to use the original import libs, we should be able to make do with a .def file. Is this supported by winebuild? I am trying to understand this a bit better for (a) winegcc support for building DLLs (b) updating the Winelib docs Thanks! -- Dimi.

I don't know why I didn't think of giving you more examples of what the last change of resolution changing did but here they are: gta2 manager now detects these resolutions twice: 640x480 800x600 1024x786 1152x864 1280x960 and the 1400x1050 4 times (This manager only displays resolutions without dept) Gta2 itself now crashes but I am not sure if that is related or not p.s. gta2 = grand theft auto 2 as I said Unreal Tournament 2003 no longer finds any valid display modes (I the traces to some of you and to wine-devel) dam, I thought I had more games installed... and you have the Max Payne problem from Sylvain Petreolle (http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-devel/2003/09/0948.html) I really think this should either be fixed somehow or reverted (if you want more broken reports you can release a version :) ) Sorry I didn't find anymore test cases for now, If you want more traces just ask, Hatky. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Script to compile Wine programs on Windows
by Pavel Roskin Sept. 28, 2003

Sept. 28, 2003

Hello! The attached script makes it possible to compile many programs from Wine under Windows. The only software needed on Windows is Cygwin with MinGW libraries and some other utilities (flex, bison). Simply run setup.exe from www.cygwin.com and make sure to select MinGW development tools. Then get Wine sources, and run the attached script in the Cygwin shell while in the Wine top-level source directory. There is one minor fix that needs to be applied to the sources to fix compatibility with MinGW headers (run autoconf and autoheader after applying): http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-patches/2003/09/att-0347/01-spawnvp.di… The configure script is rather slow in Cygwin, so it's instructed not to create makefiles, only config.h. Then the necessary libraries are compiled. The next step is to link wrc, the Wine resource compiler. Once wrc is ready, the script starts compiling programs. I cannot get windres to compile most Wine's resources directly, so there are compiled from *.rc to *.res by wrc and then from *.res to *.o by windres. Programs currently compiled by the script: clock.exe cmdlgtst.exe notepad.exe progman.exe regedit.exe start.exe view.exe wcmd.exe winefile.exe winemine.exe winhelp.exe winver.exe Yes, you can play winemine on Windows now ;-) -- Regards, Pavel Roskin

>I don't have the full env to test it myself. Can you test whether the >following patch solves this? "change font" in the propitious menu wasn't clickable before this patch, and the patch didn't change anything, but I don't have win xp, I have windows server 2003 (20030324). Yes I'm using CVS. It hasn't been a great day, first a 13 hour black out (And laptop battery down thanks to my idea of running seti 24/7), then mail service down, anyway the about problem is probably caused by the fact that the about display just calls %systemroo%system32\winver.exe In wine we have winever.exe.so, but if you compile that in windows and run it, you get the gui of %systemroot%system32\winver.exe. Also, in windows server 2k3 I can't overwrite that file, as there's that file restore service, I don't know if I can kill/disamble it, I'll give it a go (Let me know if there is a way to get rid of this great feature). The solution may be to get the wine winver to work correctly on windows without displaying something like Wine 20030911 Copyright 2003 Microsoft Corporation Then it could be named winever and placed in %systemroot%\system32\winever.exe and wine programs could call it directly when running on windows.

"Start menu"
by Robert van Herk Sept. 28, 2003

Sept. 28, 2003

Hi people, It is said that there is some kind of start menu that should appear for Wine. I myself am using Slackware 9/KDE and on my system it does not show up though. Furthermore, I do not think the wine start menu, if it exists, is currently being synchronized with the files in the Start Menu directory (Windows\\Start Menu) that Wine has. Since I am not exactly sure what already exists, I don't know if it's a good idea to make a application (kicker applet?) that reads the .lnk files from the start menu dir and makes a menu out of that, so people can easily access Windows executables. A great advantage of synchronizing with the Start Menu would be that after every installation the executables will appear on your desktop as people are used to from using Windows. This might make Wine more intuitive to use... So, my question is: To what extend does wine already do something like this, and, moreover, how should I turn that on . If it does not has a functionality like this: do you agree that making this in a kicker applet is a good idea? Greetings, Robert

Patches and scripts are useless for most users, and cygwin isn't software you install quickly with a analog modem, so I've uploaded a build of the wine programs for windows on our sourceforge page.
