IMO, the Ui ones seem to be rather old (NT4 or something) whereas the ones I'm talking about are more recent (XP), but seem better defined (API wise). For example, only XP version seems to provide the wait for debug object and continue APIs. That's why it seems to me more interesting to me that we move to the XP flavor. A+ -- Eric Pouech

Maybe for people running Wines older than current CVS (this would include 0.9.3, it has been fixed in current) Nonetheless, it's a pretty bad problem, but the next release will include the fix. > > -Scott >

Also try to do a network sniff (tcpdump or tethereal) at the time of the problem and see if there is anything strange. (Perhaps try a before - after version.) Ciao, Marcus

Did you try WINE 0.9.3 and WINE CVS to see if it still happens there? Are there any error messages on the WINE console? Ciao, Marcus

Steam Winsock regression

by James Liggett

Hi, For a while now I've been noticing a very bad regression in winsock with steam. If I try to view information about a server using the "View game info command," my Internet connection fails completely. Not only that, but sometimes *all* of the machines on my network (both WinXP and Linux) lose their connections as well. I did the usual drudgery and found the offending patch: http://www.winehq.com/pipermail/wine-cvs/2005-November/019293.html Can someone take a look at this one ASAP? Thanks very much! James

binary only dll , resolving links through winebuild

by Ananth M

Binary Only Dll (test.dll) with the header file (test.h) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- - I have a binary only dll (test.dll) that was created in windows which exports to functions - int Add (int, int) - int Subtract (int, int) - I want to use this dll in Linux from an application mydlltest.cpp. - In that process, I have tried the following: - Generated the .spec file using winedump - winedump spec test - This created the .spec file with stub functions 1 stub add 2 stub Subtract - Installed this dll as builtin dll in my wine directory (This is my testing purpose) - chmod a+x testdll_install - ./testdll_install <wine_path> - cd <wine_path> - autoconf - ./configure - make depend && make - Now I am able to see this dll in dlls directory of winepath I am not finding any README on Winebuild and I am getting problem from this step onwards, - NOW do I need to generate the .def for the spec file of the dll?? - NOW do I need to change any settings like DllOverrides to access this dll from my test application?? - Now I have a win32 application (mydlltest.cpp) that was using this dll in windows. - How can I link the (test.dll) from the application (mydlltest.cpp) ? - I use the LoadLibrary("test") in the test application ( mydlltest.cpp), the dll was loaded - I got the GetProcAddress() for the function "Add", the function pointer is obtained - *But when I call the function "add" from the application, I was getting exception*. - Then I define the stub function in the test_dll_main.c, to print a trace message. - Compiled the dll again to create the test.dll.so - Now, when I call the function "add" from the application, the trace message is printed, BUT THE ACTUAL FUNCTION IN THE TEST.DLL is not called. * (I Created the .def file from the .spec file of the dll and tried the same. Still I am getting the same problem)* ** * How I can use winebuild after creating the .spec file using winedump, so that I can link that dll using the Application.??* * Any detailed steps that can help in using a third party binary dll in Linux using the Test Applciation ??* Thank you AJ <wine-devel-bounces(a)winehq.org>
