rpcrt4.dll NdrGetUserMarshalInfo() problem
by J. Grant July 2, 2005

July 2, 2005

Hello, I am getting the attached error when running an install of Overnet v0.52. Basically it cannot find NdrGetUserMarshalInfo(), despite it being in the dll at entry point: 77d43452h, order 199. Any ideas what this problem could be? I'm expecting this to be the symptom of some wider problem. Any help appreciated. Kind regards JG p.s. Is there any way to get these mangled function names to be displayed un-mangled please? c:\opt\overnet_0_52>overnet c:\opt\overnet_0_52>err:module:import_dll No implementation for MSVCRT.dll.??_U(a)YAPAXI@Z imported from L"C:\\opt\\overnet_0_52\\MSVCIRT.dll", setting to 0xdeadbeef err:module:import_dll No implementation for MSVCRT.dll.??_V(a)YAXPAX@Z imported from L"C:\\opt\\overnet_0_52\\MSVCIRT.dll", setting to 0xdeadbeef -- Homepage: http://jguk.org/ Blog: http://jguk.org/index.html#blog Radio: http://jguk.org/index.html#radio

Support for IDvdInfo2::GetDiscID
by James Courtier-Dutton March 25, 2005

March 25, 2005

The Windows api method uses the function call IDvdInfo2::GetDiscID http://msdn.microsoft.com/archive/default.asp?url=/archive/en-us/directx9_c… This returns a unique 64bit ID for a DVD. Has anyone found out what exactly it does to create this 64bit ID. It would be nice to get linux DVD players to be able to use the same method. Cheers James

The new code should be exactly the same as the old, barring any side effects from SetWindowLong (which shouldn't affect the control anyway since this the function changed is the handler for WM_NCCREATE).

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!

Hi Con, One thought that occurred to me, and this is just a random theory, is that maybe the issue is not with the Wine code but the Win32 code run on top of it. Do you know how 2.6 scheduling compares with 2.4 and Windows (NT) scheduling? Could it be that some apps are written to expect Windows-style scheduling and fail to work if they don't get it? In case you hadn't noticed, I'm afraid I only have first-year CS knowledge of scheduling :/ thanks -mike

working together on stdole.tlb and a end to dcom9x
by Steven Edwards Nov. 28, 2004

Nov. 28, 2004

Hello, Once again cross-posting because I would like to see if this is something we can work together on. What is left to do for us to be able to build and have a working implementation of stdole.tlb or any other type libs? I ask because it seems Wines DCOM implementaton is almost good enough for most apps except for this file and ReactOS is quickly getting to the point that it can run most of the same stuff Wine can without DCOM9x installed.

But in the meantime is it ok for us to change the default colors? Because the Win95 colors are just too... dull. And my "gradient colors for caption bar" patch will make WINE's windows look nice if Win2K/XP colors are applied... _IF_ my gradient-colors-patch will ever get accepted, because until now it's not been applied yet...

How to port c++ program to linux using winelib
by Jia L Wu Nov. 15, 2004

Nov. 15, 2004

Hi, I have a win32 program written in C++. I am trying to port it to linux using winelib. The software contanis one exe file and several dll files. I would like to keep this structure when moving them to linux. That is, I still would like to generate several corresponding shared libraries (instead of statically linking all files together) in llinux and they will be loaded at the runtime. However using winelib tools(winemaker, configure, make) for shared library generation, I get unresolved symbols error. It seems that I have to write a spec file for each dll to import(and export) functions provide by other dlls. However, since they all written in c++ and what need to be imported can either be class or class method, and parameters can be class either. SO I don't know how to handle this in spec file. Beside each dll file exports many functions or classes. It would be tedious to write a lengthy spec file manually. My question is that if it is possible that linking is not invoked during shared library generation under wine (but during the runtime)? How should I do it? Thanks. Wu

ODBC - MSSQL
by Pablo Szuster Nov. 11, 2004

Nov. 11, 2004

Hi, i´m trying to access a MSSQL server (in a windows machine in the network) from a Visual Basic Application running under wine, using an ODBC driver. Since there aren´t any MSSQL drivers for linux i decided to use de native ones, so i installed mdac_typ.exe . Then i configured the DSN using odbcad32.exe but when i tested the connection (configured using tcp/ip) an error message appeared ("[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets] General network error. Check your network documentation"). Do i have to install some network drivers for wine?? Has anyone been able to connect to a MSSQL server remotely using odbc under wine?? __________________________________________________ Todavía no tenés tu Ciudad Internet Mail?
