Wine/dlls/GDI/region.c - Optimization
by Petr Kobalicek Sept. 25, 2005

Sept. 25, 2005

Hi Wine team, I was reviewed some wine and XOrg code (I was writing a canvas library) and I have used XOrg region API (in wine project it's in /dll/GDI/region.c), I have done some optimizations in round (and elliptic) regions computing and my code is about 10x faster than original, I was sended an email to XOrg too, sorry that i wasn't sending a patch now, but if you are interested I can send commented sources and wine developers can merge it. It's very small modification that has about 20 lines, but speed is increased much, I'm working on another optimizations of regional API and I probabbly do more things to do things faster. Kind Regards Petr Kobalicek

How about an one line test case which simply does ret = DefWindowProc(hwnd, WM_MOUSEACTIVATE, 0, HTNOWHERE); ok(ret == MA_ACTIVATE, "expected to return MA_ACTIVATE\n"); That would tell you what Windows returns in that case. -- Dmitry.

where's the doc?
by wino＠piments.com Sept. 25, 2005

Sept. 25, 2005

I know some work is underway to bring the wine doc upto date but is there any resource I can refer to in order to set up recent wine ? It is currently unusable since most text is coming up about two pixels high. Specifically winecfg is miniscule and unusable. The doc which installs with wine still seems to refer to documentation/samples/config and there is no information available on how to correct this font error. RTFM? I'd love to. Where is the FM? ;)

glibc versions
by wino＠piments.com Sept. 25, 2005

Sept. 25, 2005

Are there any issues with more recent glibc? I am looking to what has changed on my system since I had wine working nicely a few months back. It occured to me that I probably have updated glibc at some point possibly later then the wine build that worked to well until I foolishly tried to update it. Is there anything here we need to be aware of? TIA for any detail. Regareds

Maybe you could try out gcc-4.0.2-rc3 when it comes out (Monday?) and see if it fixes the problem? It'll be at ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/ and discussed e.g. in http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2005-09/ - Dan
