DIB direct drawing - Bug 412: Implementing a DIB engine
by Alejandro Bonet Jan. 16, 2005

Jan. 16, 2005

Well, i'm a novice here (in wine and linux), but i think i could help with this task. I'm a good windows application developer (www.babel7.com) and i wrote two programs with some of the semantics you are looking for: painting over BMPs (or better DIBs). The 2 programs are for 256 colors and true RGB. They write on file BMPs. The painting functions were written to generate pie graphs, poligonals, rectangles, and so on, but they can be readapted to write on DIBs in memory. The sintax help (comm line wo parms) is in Spanish, but i will not ask for excuses for it. The use is very simple. I will rewrite an english sintax help if i begin with the task. You can download it and test if i could help. If yes, i will begin with the task... And time will say!! http://www.babel7.com/bmps.zip Regards...

Mailing list statistics and graphs
by Mike McCormack Jan. 16, 2005

Jan. 16, 2005

Fellow bean counters! On the weekend I wrote a quick script to generate a graph of the number of patches committed to the Wine CVS per month. The script and the graph it generates are attached. Anybody think it would be interesting to have a page of similar graphs on WineHQ somewhere that's regenerated once a month? Some ideas: patches committed to winehq per month patches sent to wine-patches per month unique patch authors vs. months lines of code committed per month lines of code sent per month ...

Pirates! under wine
by Oliver Stieber Jan. 16, 2005

Jan. 16, 2005

Hi, I've been working on DirectX 9 over the past week and have managed to get Sid Meier's Pirates! http://www.atari.com/pirates/pirates/index.php working better than it does for me under cedega (see screenshot attached) along with quite a few demos using Directx 9. There's still quite a lot of work to do to get a full Directx 9 implementation but it shouldn't take too long to get Directx 9 in wine as functional as DirectX under cedega. I'm just doing a bit of housekeeping so the patches will be ready for next week along with a list of what's working and what's not. ___________________________________________________________ ALL-NEW Yahoo!

Q HeapAlloc.
by Oliver Stieber Jan. 16, 2005

Jan. 16, 2005

Hi, I been having a problem where HeapAlloc is failing even though there's plenty of virtual memory left I've done a bit of digging but haven't been able to get to the bottom of it. First of all I've checked that HeapAlloc will go into swap by allocating a lot of 64meg blocks and writing to them to force linux to allocate them properly, and it works fine. Then I changed alloc.c so that CreateSubHeap writes the status returned by NtAllocateVirtualMemory and I get C00017 STATUS_NO_MEMORY. HEAP_CreateSubHeap Could not allocate 00410000 bytes reason: C00017 [STATUS_NO_MEMORY] an I double checked this by putting a malloc in just after the failure, which failed. So then I wrote a a small non-wine test program run as a seperate process to allocate ten times as much ram and ran it while just after the crash (while the debug box was still up) and it works fine. Any ideas? Top says Mem: 514916k total, 388032k used, 126884k free, 4244k buffers Swap: 401584k total, 251488k used, 150096k free, 62916k cached Virt : 2279m RES : 150m Shared: 807m Mem : 30.0% wine-preloader ___________________________________________________________ ALL-NEW Yahoo!

Re: [AppDB] new screenshot and image classes

Here is a script that will recreate missing thumbnails and apply the watermarking. Please configure the script by modifying the first lines and don't forget to create the thumbnail directories. Other than that everything should be fine. Usage: 1)chmod u+x ./thumbs.php 2)edit clean.php to set up the database connection and other settings (first lines) 3)./thumbs.php

DCE 1.2.2 released under LGPL license (strategically important for Wine)
by Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton Jan. 16, 2005

Jan. 16, 2005

dear wine developers, you may have noticed that DCE 1.2.2 was released on the 12th january 2005 under an LGPL license. as you are no doubt aware, the significance of DCE/RPC is very, very high. in particular, with FreeDCE using an NTLMSSP authentication plugin and a "Named Pipes" transport in samba or samba tng, it becomes possible for FreeDCE to be utilised to make DCOM applications work under Wine. DCOM applications can be made to WORK under Wine using FreeDCE, Samba or Samba TNG with NamedPipes. unmodified Win32 applications can do DCE/RPC and DCOM utilising FreeDCE and Samba, with a minimum of development effort inside Wine and Samba. also, FreeDCE can be leveraged to provide _proper_ implementations of the underlying Win32 interfaces. for example, REGEDT32.EXE can be made to work over a network running _natively_ under Wine. NetUserGetInfo can return "meaningful" information. NetShareEnum likewise. NetServerGetInfo likewise. the list goes on [to cover a large section of the Win32 API developed in the 80s and early 90s] so may i take this as an opportunity to point out two things: 1) articles and news regarding the release of DCE 1.2.2 http://www.opengroup.org/comm/press/05-01-12.htm http://advogato.org/article/817.html http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/01/14/1833226&tid=117&tid=187&tid=… 2) DCE 1.2.2, FreeDCE and Samba TNG have zero funding of any kind. the possibilities are very exciting, yet curiously these strategically important projects that could remove microsoft's stranglehold on hundreds of thousands of businesses and millions of home users world-wide are drastically underutilised. i will do what i can, but my spare time (and elrond's) are precious resources. the opportunity is there: all i can do is present it to you. l. -- -- <a href="http://lkcl.net">http://lkcl.net</a> --

nv driver causes Xrender bug to be misdetected
by Mike Hearn Jan. 16, 2005

Jan. 16, 2005

Hi, Using the so-called 'open source' nv driver that ships with Xorg causes Wine at least on my hardware to misdetect libXrender as being buggy. This disables clientside font rendering and also causes the entire screen to go black whenever a Wine application has focus. Just letting people know in case they see similar symptoms. I normally run with the binary nvidia driver which doesn't have the same problem, so I'll not be debugging this anytime soon. thanks -mike

Hey Jonathan, On Sun, 16 Jan 2005 13:40:00 +0100, Jonathan Ernst <Jonathan(a)ernstfamily.ch> wrote: > The Image class (used by the Screenshot class) handles image file from > the filesystem point of view. It's here that thumbnail creation, file > deletion, etc. will take place. Paul said he'll work on this part soon. I think you completely missed I already created that. See this: http://www.meosource.com/firefox/wine/ The whole class can be found here: http://www.meosource.com/firefox/wine/image.phps As you can see the class is probably bloated for the purpose we have with the appdb. But you can just strip unused functions. But it has nice features like logs , watermarks and borders. It's not doing file deletion, that should be handeled in the screenshot class. Paul
