In the end I just factored the code between the waveout and wavein code in each driver. So the TIME_SMPTE is still duplicated in each driver. The problem with sharing this code in winmm.c is that we need to know what's the device format and I'm not sure how to do that from winmm.c. -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)free.fr http://fgouget.free.fr/ Linux: the choice of a GNU generation

Delorme Street Atlas 2004 - Sooo Close...

by Michael H. Warfield

Hey all, So this is my first post to the list in several years... I've tried several version so Delorme's Street Atlas under many many versions of Wine over the years. Most of the time, I haven't even been able to get it to install. One version, in the way WAY distant past, did install and I had problems with the serial port and port naming conventions that, IIRC, resulted in some patches to Wine. But all recent versions have been major headaches. I recently tried the 20040716 version of Wine and, just now, the 20040713 version. I was able to install Street Atlas 2004 under that previous version! Yeah! Some problems with things like checkboxes in install shield not being visible (but could be checked if you guessed right where the check box was under the image that was obscuring it) but it did install. Running it becomes another matter. If the data CD is in the CD-Rom drive, I get the modal welcome splash window up but then I get the following errors: [mhw(a)canyon mhw]$ wine .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Street\ Atlas\ USA\ 2004/SA2004.exe fixme:ole:CoCreateInstance no classfactory created for CLSID {ebbd44c6-6b55-4aa8-8a22-ceac2ede660f}, hres is 0x80040154 Fatal Error at file , line 0, char 0 Message: err:seh:setup_exception stack overflow 236 bytes in thread 0009 eip 3545a7ab esp 17840f14 stack 0x17840000-0x17940000 Now, the first one doesn't seem to be "fatal". If I don't have the CD in the CD-Rom drive, I still get that error but it come to a dialog box asking if I want to run without the databases or if I want to browse for them. If I then insert the CD and hit browse and browse over to the CD-Rom, it then hits the fatal error as before. The second error seems to be really bad juju. The splash screen just stays on top of everthing else and the whole thing seems hung. I can (and have to) Cntrl-C the application in the terminal window and then the splash screen goes away as the app terminates. This is one Fedora Core 2 with 2.6.7 kernel. Any thoughts or suggestions? Since it's a "stack overflow" (which tend to be pretty damn serious) I figured I would raise this issue on the developers list, rather than the users list. Oh... I also used the winetools package to install things like fonts and MS-installer and VBS runtimes, if that makes a difference. I was unable to install the VC++ runtime, though (didn't try that on 0813 version though). Any recommendations on debugging it further? Regards Mike -- Michael H.

Right, I (wrongly) based it on their website name (whiteboxlinux.org) I'll send an updated patch shortly. Vincent

The mingw-utils package has a tool called reimp that allows you to convert a MS_VC style *.lib in to a *.a file. Just run reimp file.lib. At some point we should add support for reading .lib files like mingw has. Thanks Steven __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo!

Then WINE, if doesn't exist in current language, uses dialog from default language. But when I only modify an existing dialog, I have to modify all .rc files. It's my opinion. Am it wrong?

Hello Andi, Many people release there code as X11/LGPL but the project at http://rewind.sourceforge.net/ is for the most part dead!

It should probably go into winecfg and the man pages.
