wininet asynchronous transfers
by Kevin Koltzau May 8, 2004

May 8, 2004

I noticed the wininet callbacks don't respond quite the same as windows does. Primarily the async calls complete almost immediately while on windows they don't respond at all until an alertable function is called (eg. SleepEx). Looking through the wininet code, I noticed we are using worker threads for async transfers rather then async procedure calls via QueueUserAPC, which is how windows does it AFAICT. Is there a reason for this? Would it be a problem if the implementation was changed to use APC? IMHO this would reduce some overhead as we would not be creating extra worker threads when not really needed, the callbacks would respond more similar to how they respond under windows, and may significantly simplify the code. If there are no arguments against this, I would like to work on it.

Did you try on windows what happens with waveOutGetDevCaps(-1, ...) to see what Windows returns for the mapper itself. The current code (in mapper) assumes that mapper itself has capabilities (which I'm not sure of). It may well be that we shall return an error (independently on the number of installed drivers), but in that case, proper support is better in the wave mapper it self than in winmm. A+

It's not more incorrect than before anyway, so if you prefer to see something that looks more like a valid path that's OK with me.

We have used the attached sample to test this. The patch I have sent earlier had two fixes; Fix-1 (wide character string) and Fix-2 (Remote Path Name). Basically we have Team Developer product which generates the runtime win32 applications. These generated application are behaving differently on Win32 and Wine. Please find attached the sample win32 application that demonstrates the behavior of WNetGetConnection API. 1. The sample has hard coded the network drive name as "N:\" for this demonstration. Please map a new network drive named "N:\" before running this sample program. 2. In Wine, apply the fix-1 (wide character issue) before applying fix-2 to see the different behavior. 3.

Not really, resources are going to be freed automatically anyway, and that's something that needs to be tested too.

Filesystem bug
by Steven Edwards May 6, 2004

May 6, 2004

Hello, I noticed this when I was playing around with DCOM and IE installers today. If you run the dcom9x or ie setup programs and pass the /C /T:path flags Wine is creating the destination directory twice. Here is a example wine dcom95.exe /C /T:C:\temp will extract the files to C:\temp\temp rather than C:\temp like it should I just double checked this with ie6setup to make sure it wasnt user error and it really is doing it. wine ie6setup.exe /C /T:C:\tp1 dumps the files in C:\tp1\tp1 Thanks Steven __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

by Krishna Murthy May 6, 2004

We did some analysis and come to conclusion that QueryDosDevice is a better choice than GetVolumeInformation. As you indicated, since network path of the wine's network drive is not pointing to a real network path, neither of them going to return the remote path of the network drive. Since 'QueryDosDevice' retrieves a local path for the network drive (from wine config file), this will be a better choice than GetVolumeInformation.

Help Porting Application To Linux
by MIKEL CARRASCO May 6, 2004

May 6, 2004

Hi all, A few weeks ago we sent the following message to the Wine newsgroup at Usenet and we were told that it was better to send it here, so here it goes: We are trying to port an application from Windows to Linux. This application is clearly divided in two parts: the first one is the graphic interface, which makes an intensive use of COM, MFC, databases and other MS Windows technologies; the second is the application's "kernel" (nothing to do with the Linux kernel), which carries out all the processing. This "kernel" has been created using mostly plain C. The project needs to be done quite quickly so we've been thinking of using Wine to speed up the process of porting. Thus, we would run the graphic interface using Wine, while we would compile our application's kernel in Linux and it would run as a normal Linux process. In fact we have already managed to run the GUI using wine and it seems to work (more or less). We have compiled most of the kernel too. The main problem we are facing is communication between the GUI and the kernel. Under Windows we do so by means of shared memory (CreateFileMapping, ...) and we don't know very well how to do it in Linux. We have done some tests with Winelib and it seems like we are getting something. However, later on we need our kernel to run as a real time task by means of RTAI, and we don't know if that is even possible with Wine/Winelib. Anybody knows if such a thing is possible? If that's not feasible, I guess we will have to go look how Wineserver works, so we can make our own XXXFileMapping functions to call them from our application's kernel and let us have access to Wineserver's services. But we don't know wether this is posible or if it would be a good solution to our problem. Another possible solution we've been thinking of is to tweak the Wineserver, so it does the file mapping the way we want (place in memory, format, etc.) and we can read/write it from our application's kernel using plain C functions. Can anybody help us, please? Which one do you think would be the best solution? Thank you very much for your help. ______________________________________ Mikel Carrasco I + D Software.
