When a commonly-needed package becomes "stable", a snapshot of its interface specification is taken, and added to the LSB. LSB applications can then rely on that interface being available. That might sound like a no-op, but the painstaking attention to detail involved in nailing down the interfaces of the LSB offers a lot of stability. > The LSB is toothless while upstream > projects continue to treat platform stability as a trivial detail.

I believe that the COMPOSITE extension is not part of LSB, so any application using it is not LSB-conformant. Here again, applications that conform to the LSB are saved from the pain of unstable interfaces changing. > The LSB process moves so slowly though that there's > no chance of them ever having an up to date desktop specification. That's ok. All we need is that they have a useful, working desktop specification. Mike, I get the feeling you want the LSB to be something it's not. Relax, let the LSB folks do their thing. Yes, LSB applications will always be using stable old interfaces, but *that's the point*. - Dan -- Trying to get a job as a c++ developer? See http://kegel.com/academy/getting-hired.html

That'd be fine for me - I never use any of those features - but I realize that real users require themm. LSB 3, on the other hand, is going to add Gnome support, so they're at least thinking about the desktop now. (Your other objections - FreeType, fontconfig, libjpeg, OpenSSL, etc - could be packaged along with an LSB implementation of Wine, so they're not really an issue.) It would be worth doing an LSB 2.0 implementation of Wine as a demonstration of what's missing in the LSB; IMHO it would help put pressure on the LSB folks to include the missing bits in the next version. But remember, LSB can only standardize what has already stabilized in the field, and things like sound and printing are only now starting to not suck on Linux... - Dan -- Trying to get a job as a c++ developer?

Version information in hhctrl.ocx breaks hhupd.exe
by Sven.Paschukat＠t-online.de Nov. 21, 2004

Nov. 21, 2004

Hello! I have noticed that in the last few days the native hhctrl.ocx doesn't installs anymore. Both the automatically installation in Internet Explorer and the manually start of Microsofts hhupd.exe fails with the message "This computer already has a newer version of HTML Help." I found out that integrating version information in the builtin hhctrl.ocx caused this effect. Look into the newest version of wine/dlls/hhctrl.ocx/Makefile.in and version.rc. Is this done wilfully or is it a bug? Thanks, Sven

SetForegroundWindow() from WM_ACTIVATE broken
by Jon Griffiths Nov. 21, 2004

Nov. 21, 2004

Hi, I have an application that keeps a fullscreen back panel window open, with its current working windows always in front. The back panel and all working windows are parented to the desktop. On windows clicking anywhere on the back panel momentarily activates the back panel, then the working window is brought to the front. On wine the back panel is brought to the front and activated (title bar active), obscuring the working window. I have narrowed the cause of this down and created a tiny test app to demonstrate the problem. Under windows, Calling SetForegroundWindow(xxx) from within the WndProc (specifically, while handling the WM_ACTIVATE message), will cause the xxx window to become the foreground window and rise to the top of the z-order. On Wine the window that called SetForegroundWindow() rises to the top of the z-order and gets its titlebar activated. This makes the app rather unusable at present. Does anyone have an idea how to correct this behaviour? I have attached the test app and its source for testing in case that helps, and I'll post more info if I find anything more. Thanks, Jon ===== "Don't wait for the seas to part, or messiahs to come; Don't you sit around and waste this chance..." - Live jon_p_griffiths(a)yahoo.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

TeleVantage client on Wine

Nov. 20, 2004

I am attempting to install the <a href="http://televantage.activelogic.com">TeleVantage Client</a> into wine. I have compiled Wine-20041019 from source.

I was able to copy from one PC to another with success, as long as the following libraries were present and registered: MSVBVM60.DLL TVW32.dll Tvlib.dll mfc71.dll msvcp71.dll msvcr71.dll ssinput1.ocx It is possible to regsvr32 files MSVBVM60.DLL, TVW32.dll, Tvlib.dll, ssinput1.ocx. It is not possible to regsvr32 files mfc71.dll, msvcp71.dll, msvcr71.dll. Files mfc71.dll, msvcp71.dll don't even appear in the registry. msvcr71.dll does, under .NET framework. Added the following to config: ;"MSVBVM60.DLL" = "builtin, native" ;"TVW32.dll" = "builtin, native" ;"Tvlib.dll" = "builtin, native" ;"mfc71.dll" = "native, builtin" ;"msvcp71.dll" = "native, builtin" ;"msvcr71.dll" = "native, builtin" ;"ssinput1.ocx" = "builtin, native" (tried different combos of commented, non-commented, builtin, native, with absolutely no effect) Upon doing this and attempting to run TeleVantage, I get these messages, and a black screen that appears on the first output message and dissapears on the last: alexander(a)reservations:~$ wine c:\\Program\ Files\\TeleVantage\\Client\\TVClient.exe fixme:ole:CoRegisterMessageFilter stub fixme:ole:GetRecordInfoFromGuids (0x425e80,1,1,1033,0x42626c,0x506274),stub! fixme:ole:CoRegisterMessageFilter stub I got this blank-in-blank-out problem when I did the PC to PC copy procedure as well. TeleVantage client just likes to quit with no errors if something is wrong. Per the registry entries mentioned above, I figured that installing .NET into wine would solve the problem. I just learned the hard way for the first time what this would entail. Installing windows version of mono into wine didn't solve the problem, and the msvcr71.dll didn't appear. Do you have any suggestions to help me install TeleVantage client on wine? Thanks --Alexander

Re: No RichEdit20A window class
by Michael Ost Nov. 19, 2004

Nov. 19, 2004

I'm re'ing my own post, but I think there's a combination of (1) a wine bug and (2) user error at work here. (1) The wine bug (I think) is that riched32.dll is registering the wrong window class name. Here's a suggested patch: [root(a)ihop dlls]# diff -Naur richedit/richedit.c richedit.MUSE/richedit.c --- richedit/richedit.c 2004-11-18 12:28:53.000000000 -0800 +++ richedit.MUSE/richedit.c 2004-11-18 17:03:33.000000000 -0800 @@ -792,7 +792,11 @@ wndClass.cbWndExtra = RTFInfoOffset + sizeof(RTFControl_Info*); wndClass.hCursor = LoadCursorA(0, (LPSTR)IDC_ARROW); wndClass.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH)(COLOR_WINDOW + 1); +#if (_RICHEDIT_VER >= 0x0200 ) + wndClass.lpszClassName = RICHEDIT_CLASS20A; /* WC_RICHED32A; */ +#else wndClass.lpszClassName = RICHEDIT_CLASS10A; /* WC_RICHED32A; */ +#endif RegisterClassA (&wndClass); } Can any wise ones comment on this? (2) My user error is that Windows requires that RICHED32.DLL be manually loaded before use, it seems. At least that's what MFC requires, via its AfxInitRichEdit2() function. I called LoadLibrary("RICHED32.DLL") and, with my above patch, CreateWindow(RICHEDIT_CLASS,...) works fine. This isn't true for other DLLs... but, oh well, there it is. Cheers... mo

I read WWN #249 and found my name is spelled correctly :) But the strange thing is, my (outgoing) name has been truncated in my emails since about a month ago. I wasn't trying to hide anything; rather, Yahoo! Mail has a maximum length of 32 characters for the outgoing name, and the last 'o' in my name gets truncated. It makes me feel itchy, so I decided truncating it would be better. But when I saw my name being spelled in full, I felt proud (I have always felt proud of my somewhat-long full name :P). So just out of curiosity, how did you guys know my real name? Anyway, now I have signature so you all should be able to read it. In full. Not restricted by Yahoo!

from what I read from Linus / Roland discussion on this topic (this night) on lkml, Linus only patched 1 out of 3 places which need to be patched (according to Roland). But I don't know yet if Linus will finish the job or not :-( IMO, what Linus proposes heads into the right direction (don't single step in signal handler if the process itself has set the TF flag, but do if the debugger has done it), however I cannot tell whether it's going to fix all issues.

Win32 simulation
by Demoniak Nov. 19, 2004

Nov. 19, 2004

Hi ! Currently, I try to develop a stress tool for Windows. My main problem is to "simulate" multiple Windows system on one machine because of mouse and keyboard, and because only one Desktop or one Station can be active at a time. I discover Wine and I wonder if it is possible to use it on Windows platform to launch mutliple Windows-like OS ? - on http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6241 there is a Win32 package. Is it dedicated to install Wine on Win XP ? How can I install it (five zip) ? - is it possible to launch multiple Wine on Windows ? (typically each one in a different Window, easily to monitor ?) - does Wine support Windows hooks mechanism ? I think it is a good beginning if I can have all this answers ;-))) Thanks Demoniak (not my real name) --------------------------------- Demoniak http://www.quisque.com --------------------------------- --------------------------------- Créez gratuitement votre Yahoo!

Up-to-date instructions for relay trace
by Bill Medland Nov. 19, 2004

Nov. 19, 2004

Can someone please remind me; I can't find anything any longer in either the Wine User Guide or the Wine Developer's Guide I want to get a relay trace of all calls to functions in msvcrt.dll and in no other dlls. I thought all I'd have to do was set export WINEDEBUG=+relay and in the config file I set [Debug] "RelayFromInclude" = "msvcrt" ; everything else commented out However that also provides trace for a load of other stuff. Can I get just the msvcrt? (and, no I can't do it by getting everything and grepping the msvcrt; the program won't run with a full relay trace) -- Bill Medland mailto:billmedland(a)mercuryspeed.com http://webhome.idirect.com/~kbmed

No RichEdit20A window class
by Michael Ost Nov. 18, 2004

Nov. 18, 2004

Hi. My winelib application can't create a window of class RichEdit20A. It looks like the class is not being registered, because the DLL is not being loaded. Any clues why this might be? Turning on trace+richedit shows that dlls/richedit/richedit.c's RICHED32_Register and DllMain are not being called My test app tries to create a RICHEDIT_CLASS window and then it tries a TOOLTIP_CLASS window. Since both window classes are registered from their respective DLLInit I thought they would make a good comparison. The first fails; the other doesn't. Neither riched32.dll nor commctrl.dll show up in the exe.spec.c file, since winebuild finds none of their entry points in my code. But the commctrl DLL is loaded, while the riched32 one is not. Psuedo-code: #include <richedit.h> #include <tooltips.h> winmain(...) { CreateWindow(RICHEDIT_CLASS, ....) // Fails: I see err:win:CreateWindowExA bad class name "RichEdit20A" // on the console CreateWindow(TOOLTIP_CLASS, ...) // no complaint } Any help would be appreciated... mo =================================== Michael Ost, Software Architect Muse Research, Inc. most(a)museresearch.com

RE: profiling GTA4. question about polling
by Ann and Jason Edmeades Nov. 18, 2004

Nov. 18, 2004

Hi Brian, Firstly thanks for the profiling info - its something I have been waiting to try when I get through the d3d9 changes. We have always known that routine was bad (hence the name 'slow'!) but that confirms it. Re the splitting into wined3d - You asked "Is this a tedious task or does it require knowledge of the codebase?"... It's a bit of both. I am taking it slower because I am trying to ensure the patches get committed so I don't end up reworking things, and I only have limited time so I don't want to waste it. At the moment I am 'stuck' trying to get a particular patch in, which will dictate the future direction of lots of other patches, so it is important we get it right. Once that's done, I really hope to make a lot of progress relatively quickly, and once I get beyond a certain point, feel free to hack away. I hate the fact I am holding anyone back! Please do take Raphael's test patch and try again - I would be interested to know if it makes a significant difference (which I do believe it should). I would be very interested in any other profiling results, and if you feel like improving things in the code please go for it. One thing I always fancied doing was to profile the 3dMark2001SE utility, and see how close to windows performance we can get and identify the bottlenecks. Regards, Jason
