While I care about the commit messages to the wine module and from time to time the lostwages module I never care about whats going on in appdb.

Re: Wine and SCONS

Scott, Integrating SCONS and Winelib is a wonderful idea. I'm currently struggling with explaining in a cookbook way how to port an MFC program to Winelib. Also, there's a lot of demand for porting .NET apps and if Winelib can support that as well this will attract more developers. I'll be happy to do whatever I can to help. Ira

I doubt SCons will help here in any substantial way. Its chief appeal seems to be to people who like using python for everything, and who like badmouthing make. - Dan -- Trying to get a job as a c++ developer?

cleanroom legalaties

I've been using GPL software, and reverse engineering for years (manuals with more than an int13 reference used to be hard to get hold of) and have just stumbled onto an interesting link. In the US there a process called 'Abstraction, Filtration, Comparison' that is used to determine if a work falls under the copyright of another work. It doesn't look like anything that affects wine, but interesting anyway. http://digital-law-online.info/lpdi1.0/treatise22.html ___________________________________________________________ ALL-NEW Yahoo!

You need to add a check to the configure and configure.ac scripts for these functions. When you run ./configure it will check to see if this function is implemented on the given platform and define as needed. Thanks Steven __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Take Yahoo!

wineprefixcreate
by Ann and Jason Edmeades Feb. 16, 2005

Feb. 16, 2005

Hiya, I was working on bug#2716 - a trap running install which turned out to be due to a missing registry key which wineprefixcreate should have created. Now I had an excuse (I deleted *.reg for another test previously!) but the reporter also got the same problem. To quote: "I've installed WINE via RPM package (there's a link to Mandrake package maintainer's RPM with WINE version 20050211 on www.winehq.com) There is no wineprefixcreate in it. I downloaded source tarball, which contains this utility, but it is part of another script, which COMPILES wine and that's what i want to avoid - system based on RPM's is more easily to maintain - you don't have to search for all installed files when uninstalling.... (Compiled programs must always be deleted manually..... :-( ) But i don't understand why running wine rundll32.exe setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 wine.inf DIDN'T put it in? No error messages..... (That was what i did before running any program with RPM based WINE). Although this helped, i found other problems, so i finally installed WINE from source tarball, just to be sure, there is no installation problem.... " Can someone please clarify when wineprefixcreate is actually driven, and for an RPM (which I've never installed, so apologies) how should this problem have been created. (Mind you, in my case ie after deleting the registry, it would have been nice for it to be pre-populate with some of the keys too!) Thanks! Jason

Re: x11drv: make minimizing windows work again
by Vitaliy Margolen Feb. 16, 2005

Feb. 16, 2005

Ok, that semi-helps. Now I don't have an extra window that was showing up after minimize. But programs still don't want to stay minimized. They blink in the task bar and immediately restore themselves. Any suggestions where could it be? People have commented on this before. To reiterate: all programs (that I have) behave in this manner, not staying minimized. BTW one side affect of this patch - application icon is not displayed in the task bar anymore. Now it's back to wine's logo. Vitaliy Margolen Tuesday, February 15, 2005, 5:51:34 AM, Vitaliy Margolen wrote: > changelog: > - make minimized windows stay minimized

You should > look at the WM_NCCALCSIZE processing (SWP_DoNCCalcSize in > dlls/x11drv/winpos.c) and check what's happening there with the > rectangles. > > Ok, so what is happening is this: In dlls/x11drv/winpos.c, the pNewWindowRect is coming into SWP_DoNCCalcSize as (0,0;0,0), wndPtr->rectWindow is (182,977;662;998), and wndPty->rectClient is (183,978;661,997). Then winpos.c sends it's own WM_NCCALCSIZE message, and upon return, params.rgrc[0] is (1,1;1,1)! This, in turn, causes the third and fourth conditions in the section commented as "If the application sends back garbage, ignore it" to be true, which in turn causes the next condition to be false, so the client rectangle (pNewClientRect) does NOT get set. (Follow that?? <g>) Tracing through the processing of this WM_NCCALCSIZE, I find it ends up generating two WM_NCCALCSIZE messages, one being handled by DefWindowProc32. This leads me to ./windows/defwnd.c, which calls NC_HandleNCCalcSize in ./windows/nonclient.c. Within NC_HandleNCCalcSize, a call is made to NC_AdjustRectOuter, then the window's rectangle (winRect) is adjusted based on this call. It is this call and adjustment of winRect that changes winRect from (0,0;0,0) to (1,1;-1,-1), which is later "fixed" to (1,1;1,1). Diving deeper, into NC_AdjustRectOuter, I find that because the window style has WS_BOARDER set, adjust is set to 1, then InflateRect is called, which sets rect to (-1,-1;1,1) [returned to NC_HandleNCCalcSize tmpRect variable]. So, there's the problem. The new rectangle size is (0,0;0,0), but has WS_BOARDER set, so the WM_NCCALCSIZE message returns (1,1;1,1) erroneously. The only thing is, I'm still not sure where the "best" place would be to check for the new window rectangle of (0,0;0,0) and handle it appropriately - or what "appropriate" would be, for that matter... Further help would be appreciated. Thanks, Carl

As far as I know, SHILCreateFromPath, ILFree and ILIsEqual are all exported by name on Windows. So, IMHO, unless we find a problem running the test on some Windows versions it would be better to fix MinGW. -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)codeweavers.com
