These are suggestions. I hope they help a bit. > I grudgingly have to agree that winecfg is at least partly inadequate. One of the things it is lacking is an export and and import function. I do not know how many times I have "blown away" my .wine directory. It would certainly save me some time if I could export the settings for a program and import them later. If we had the ability to import and export the settings for a program then it would also be possible for someone to upload that file somewhere (lets say the AppDB) and someone else could download it and use the same settings. The one problem that I can see with this is in the DLL overrides section. That is: if the import file contains a DLL override and the person does not have that dll installed we have a problem. Probably the best idea would be to search in the windows directories and warn the user if it could not find that file. Of course this does not address actually getting these dlls which is part of what WineTools does. Tony Lambregts

build stand alone binaries

by Benjamin Zeller

Hi there, is it possible to build real elf binaries with winelib? If i go through the tutorial on winehq.org i get only a appname.exe.so and i have to invoke wine to start the application. Is it possible to compile a binary wich can run stand alone? (Sorry for maybe posting this message twice i had some trouble with my email programm) regards benjamin z.

One directory for > the present winetools mode and another for a new builtin mode where > winetools just acts as a menu driven loader and installer. Sorry for the delay: I have been on CeBIT computer fair. To come to an end with that: Sven and I are doing the following for WineTools at the moment: - change WineTools to use WINEPREFIX - using a standard WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.winetools" if not set otherwise - change * to builtin,native - change version to WinXP - run as many apps as possible without tweaking The last one is the annoying one as it needs many testing *and* I know of no way to say "do not use the default" in winecfg or the registry. If there is a way, please mail me. I think using the AppDB for getting install and execution infos for programs is very hard to accomplish. We were already thinking about a way to send data of successful installations or executions automatically into a DB but dropped that. It would be very nice to have but it has to be - repeated for every version of wine - checked for correctness - if there are competing entries they have to be manually resolved - probably many other problems Regards Joachim von Thadden -- "Never touch a running system!

IMO, the best thing for Wine would be to have a simple front end with a list of freely downloadable applications that work "out of the box" with no configuration changes. Click -> Download application -> Install -> Run This would make it easy to for users to get applications working, find and report regressions, and fully test Wine, and would fully support developers in our quest to build a fully free environment for running Windows applications.

More dogfood tests

by Segin

I have also started using Firefox in Wine for everything, namely because native lost a lib, old mozilla and opera and native firefox cause X to malloc() like mad (pkill -9 the broswer to cause X to free() ). I have found very few problems, mainly just images being color-reversed, and only on PNG of certain types. Also, Wine is MUCH faster if you have NPTL as your only threading method in glibc. (think a 15x improvement in speed here...) Wine also seems to know about the XDND X extension, cause it knows what GTK+2 widgets can be dragged and dropped onto, but otherwise the actual drag-and-drop procedure is a null effect. Ahh to hell with it, let's get to the speed tests. time wine firefox.exe, cold cache: real 0m48.895s (about 45s, really) user 0m4.116s sys 0m1.589s hot cache: real 0m9.287s (about 7.5s, really) user 0m3.966s sys 0m1.026s (Please note that the "real" time is off by about 1-2 seconds, to allow for me to quit Firefox.) Here we do the 7-Zip File Manager. Errors: err:listview:LISTVIEW_WindowProc unknown msg 2005 wp=00000001 lp=00000000 err:rebar:REBAR_AdjustBands Phase 1 failed, x=1000, maxx=-4, start=1, end=1 time wine 7zFM.exe, cold cache: real 0m34.815s (about 30s) user 0m1.044s sys 0m0.672s and with a hot cache: real 0m5.105s (about 4s, actually) user 0m0.997s sys 0m0.378s And now we do PuTTY: (no errors) Cold cache: real 0m39.382s (37s) user 0m1.023s sys 0m0.868s Hot cache: real 0m3.170s (no ajustment) user 0m0.978s sys 0m0.395s On a normal Windows system, the cache is always hot (all the core DLLs are always loaded), so the hot cache times actually rival a real Windows system, especially the one for PuTTY (which beats every test on a real Windows box I have done except those on more powerful hardware)

My two cents about winetools and the suggestions I read in Issue 308

by Philip V. Neves

What I'm seeing here with the whole debate with wine and winetools is that its a configuration management issue. The project is getting into the stage where testing needs to be accomodated and so does getting things working. I think whats currently available for managing configurations to wine is innadequate. Even winecfg provides an interface that is innadequate for making many changes in terms of dll overrides. Plus it doesn't provide a mechanism for rolling those changes back. Or even managing multiple configurations or modes so that problems can be issolated. I think whats is comming out of the winetools debate is better tools are needed for configuration management. This isn't very revolutionary. Its a natural part of the software development life cycle. As a project starts emerging from the development phase ways to provide better configuration management start showing themselves. Something that interfaces with the AppDB would be good. It would make things easier. I think, given the complaints given by the developers are also valid but so are the complaints made by the people trying to use the program and even the testers. Most other projects don't need such tools but this one does given what its trying to accomplish and the complexity of whats being accomplished. Besides even windows XP has a roll back feature now to fix problems. Why doesn't wine considering its attempting a bug for bug compatibility with windows. This would be a wise thing to implement just for sanities sake. So I'd like to provide an addition to Jason Greens brain dump * AppDB would have to be extended to be able to get and report this data, and it would make sense for each App's maintainer to be able to manage that information. * Biggest issue here is that this information could have a tendency to change very rapidly, so it might overload the app maintainers if they had to track this for each version of wine. What I think would make sense is to have regular snapshots (every 3 months?) and release a new version of "Winetools Plus" or whatever you want to call this thing a month later to give the maintainers time to update each of their apps based on the frozen version. (I think multiple versions of the AppDB would be useful. Similar to the Release and Release candidate type way of doing things.) * Data needed: AppID, AppVersionID, WineVersionID, Window Version, DLL Overrides, Window settings (fullscreen/windowed - sometimes and issue), Sound options, Video acceleration required, General notes or HOWTO's, etc. You would need separate overrides/settings for Installing vs. Running the app. * AppDB could dump this information to an xml format which "Winetools Plus" could be distributed with. Maybe have an option to download the latest xml file directly from winehq.org. * The 'Winetools Plus' front-end would just be a menu which would query all of the apps in the xml dump. The user picks they app they want to install, and it reads the necessary information, verifies the source installation media, and goes at it. * Applying patches to apps might get tricky (e.g., where wine only successfully runs version 1.5 of the app, but 1.0 is on the CD), but I'm sure it could be worked out. * A Way to roll back DLL overrides. * A Way store roll multiple registry configurations so that we establish a base reference configuration and a test configuration. Or even multiple test configurations. * An AppDB tool that allows changes to the DLL configuration in the AppDB to be made easily. * A way to detect the version of wine and provide configuration changes given that version of wine. * A way to report bugs to the appDB maintainers about configuration problems. A nice to have would be Something that allows the AppDB maintainers to distribute tweeks to the configuration changes in the AppDB to users. So that even if we aren't installing the programs on the system. The tweeks can still be made on the fly. This would eliminate having to blow away the .wine directory all the time. Blowing away the .wine directory is not a desirable. A way for wine developers to distribute a test configuration would also be a useful thing. That way we can test the software with what the developers want us to test rather then shooting in the dark only to see that the bug we reported is the same as some other bug we reported. Such tools would be useful in debugging the entire framework and speed up development. These are suggestions. I hope they help a bit.

Re: wglMakeCurrent

Ok, so now we know what's is going on here :-) I'm not familiar at all with wine, so I'm not sure how we should fix this (but it seems this would fix a lot of opengl related problems) When we first call X11DRV_setup_opengl_visual, I guess it's using the first visual ID. But later, when we create a pixelformat descriptor, maybe we should select a better visual (one equal or similar to the description given in pixelformat), so when we later call wlgMakeCurrent, both visuals will be the same I hope this makes sense...

Hi Jesse, That's very interesting... Yes, I'm using a nvidia card. I think I know the reason why is working for you but not for me glxinfo tells me that my first visual ID is 0x21. However, on some ATI cards glxinfo reports 0x23 as the first visual, which is the same visual ID of the contexts I create. So maybe my program works fine for you because, just by coincidence, the visual ID of my contexts are the same as the first visual ID reported by X-Window Please, let me know the first visual ID reported by glxinfo is 0x23 in your system.

I have the same results as with War3. Your program worked for me. I can't reproduce the same problem using DRI (Radeon 9200). So there is something specific about your configuration.

Sure, the code reaches the DispCallFunc call, but then the actual code from inside the control fails the call. It seems that the type of the variant is not adequate for the parameter. Visual Basic shows a message: "Application-defined or user defined error". It seems that I will have to wait until I code enough of a test case for a *successful* ITypeInfo::Invoke() (there are two tests of failing calls, but none of a successful one), so that I can see what native OLEAUT32.DLL is sending as the parameter.

A bunch of .NET APIs that they intend to backport to XP, and which require a runtime nobody seems to be using for desktop apps anyway. An improved file protection hack.

Indeed I do not know what the original patch does or why it's needed, but the slowdown just seems related to looking up the Wine_GLContext and testing it. If this patch improves performance I'll fix it to use Win32 TLS instead of ELF TLS, it'll be interesting to see if that changes makes a difference too.

Looks like FT_Bitmap_Convert is a relatively new function - I don't have it in fc4. You're going to need to provide a fallback or simply ignore it completely and code it yourself.

Free mirror for .deb APT repository (forwarded correspondance)

by Scott Ritchie

Hey guys. For the past few days I've been corresponding with Pieter de Bruijn, who has graciously offered us a huge amount of bandwidth to host the APT repository for our .deb packages, rather than having to put it in the sourceforge webspace where it is rather slow and times out a lot. By my estimates, we get about 800 downloads of Wine from the APT repository per day, which is about 10 gigabytes. All other package downloads from sourceforge combined constitute about 4000 downloads, so roughly 20% of our package downloads are using the APT repository. As for what percentage of our user base uses current .debs, I don't know, because more or less up to date Wine packages derived from mine can be also grabbed from the Ubuntu backports server, the Ubuntu development server, and likely some other place I don't know of. It wouldn't surprise me if over half our users were on Ubuntu at this point, though. One important advantage of Peter's offer is that it allows us much more storage space, possibly including multiple APT repositories for different distributions. This would be far preferable to the ~100 megs or so we get on Sourceforge, which can barely fit one package. Anyway, I'd like to inform everyone about the hosting offer and gather some additional feedback, if you have any comments about the change. Thanks, Scott Ritchie

Vista compatibility page

by Mike Hearn

Potentially this is old news, but via Raymond Chen we learn of this page: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnlong/htm… Which talks about Vistas application compatibility. Interesting points that stand out: * They are dropping WinHelp and CHM support. You'll have to install it from their website for it to work (my first thought: wtf?) * IsBadReadPtr/IsBadWritePtr are now "banned". I wonder what that means. Presumably it just means they don't use them internally for the APIs anymore. * Windows will now silently fail to modify certain protected system files even if you're the administrator (basically the STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED error is suppressed to stop installers tripping up). * They dropped D3D RM. Not many apps use this but I think at least my fathers sailing game does. So there we have it - this appears to be the first release in which they simply started dropping APIs.

We can either put defaults in wine.inf, or if that's not good enough compute the proper values at run-time. It doesn't really make sense to do both. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

Re: Dogfood status

by Tom Spear

While we are on the subject of dogfooding things, to the best of anyone's knowledge, has anyone ever tried to do something as crazy as oh i dunno, defragging their hard drive (or even one of the virtual partitions) with win98's defragger? What about running win98's gui'based scandisk on either of the above? I'd do it, but my linux machine still needs a new motherboard. Anyone got a test machine they need to reformat?

I've remeoved shortcut buttons to xmms and mozilla (linux) from my task bar and replaced them by shortcuts to little scripts that start mozilla.exe and winamp in wine. Just want to share some experiences. As a frequent wine-user my favourite commands are "rm -rf ~/.wine" and "wineserver -k" And that's where i ran into trouble... First problem solved by consequently using WINEPREFIX="/c" wine "c:\Program Files/Winamp/winamp.exe". Second problem was a bit more thinking. I compiled an extra wine package in /tmp/wine and run by WINEPREFIX="/c" /tmp/wine/wine "c:\Program Files/Winamp/winamp.exe" Now i can do wineserver -k without killing winamp :). So i've now put some aliases in /etc/bashrc for most common commands: alias _wine='WINEPREFIX="/c" /tmp/wine/wine' alias _winecfg='WINEPREFIX="/c" /tmp/wine/programs/winecfg/winecfg' alias _regedit='WINEPREFIX="/c" /tmp/wine/programs/regedit/regedit' So now i can do _wine "c:\Program Files/Winamp/winamp.exe" _and_ rm -rf ~/.wine and wineserver -k, without any trouble. Sofar Mozilla runs really great; Winamp has some issues but sound plays well.

GetSystemInfo however doesn't generate the mentioned keys. Would it be acceptable to put some sane defaults in wine.inf and have GetSystemInfo check and fill the correct keys in the registry? Or do we need a way to fill these keys at every boot of the system (start of wineserver)? Paul.

Some Processor(s) specific environment variables

by Paul Vriens

Hi, there are some processor specific environment variables: NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS=1 PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=x86 PROCESSOR_IDENTIFIER=x86 Family 6 Model 9 Stepping 8, GenuineIntel PROCESSOR_LEVEL=6 PROCESSOR_REVISION=0908 (from a VMware box). These variables exist in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet \Control\Session Manager\Environment. Psinfo.exe (from SysInternals) uses these env-variables to produce some information. When I remove the entries and reboot the box they are auto-generated again. My question is where to put the generation of these variables? We most likely want this with some defaults in wine.inf. Furthermore GetSystemInfo() could be changed, but that seems cheating. Any ideas? Cheers, Paul.

Dogfood status

by Dan Kegel

I've been dogfooding Wine with Firefox for some time. It's totally usable and good looking now. The four open bugs, http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4523 (copy/paste problem) http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4528 (too tall) http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4762 (flash crash) http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4829 (jerky animations) while serious, do not prevent me from getting work done. A new problem is that apps have been crashing with X Error of failed request: BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 17 (X_GetAtomName) Atom id in failed request: 0x0 every day. This is on Ubuntu 5.10 with updates, and might be a problem with the X server. I'll try updating to Ubuntu 6.04 flight 5 and see if that makes it go away. Anyway, since Firefox is in fairly good good shape, I'm now running putty under wine instead of using linux's built-in ssh. Works fine. Three annoyances: 1) takes a while (ten seconds) to open up session after clicking 'open'. 2) every keystroke yields the console message fixme:imm:ImmReleaseContext (0xb014e, 0x7fdbee18): stub 3) It took me a while to figure out how to copy and paste in putty, since Linux doesn't have the 'copy / paste' items in the upper left corner menu. (ctrl-insert and shift-insert work fine.) But that's a linux window manager issue, not a wine issue. Overall, I'm productive and happy. Success! Since those are the *only two gui apps I use* on Linux, I'm running out of things to dogfood! Oh, once in a while I need an image editor. Maybe I'll dogfood windows gimp next (quadruple yuck)... - Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv

Re: Fwd: Hi

by Segin

The letter seems to check out as valid from what I can find. at any rate, there is a little-known solution that Microsoft has produced themselves that barely anyone ever used. Not many Microsoft employees still remember it cause it was a back-burner feature for 95/98: QuickView. You coul right-click on a file, select QuickView, and a window would popup showing the document, or if an executable, a list of infomation about it that is highly detailed, including ordinals, synbols, relocations, all sorts of offsets, and a number of useful things. It would dump infomation for PE and NE executables, and also MZ headers (DOS exec and stubs). Sadly, I don't know why a Microsoft employee didn't think of this before. It would be simple to get the Wine system libraries from the wine-win32-dlls package, and use a test Win98 box or so to find out what ordinals are in them. Of couse, the gre/Winedump/Linux solution is also suggested. Try running that in combination of gdb. Hans Leidekker wrote: >Hi list, > >I'm forwarding a question from someone at Microsoft(!).

Hi guys, Thanks a lot for all your replies... After further inspection, it seems the problem is when I try to share display lists from one context to another. I've attached the program and the source code, so you can try it. As you can see, I first create a context and then I create a second context but sharing the display lists of the first one. If you run this program, you'll see the BadMatch error I was reporting in my first email. However, if you don't share display lists (that is, change the line Context.Create(0, 0, true) to Context.Create(0, 0, false)), everything works ok. Jesse, I've made the changes proposed in those patches, but it didn't work :-( By the way, I'm using wine .9.9.

need advise with new open-source project

by Nuno Lopes

Hi, I'm currently trying to start a new open-source project that will do the same as WINE did with the windows API, but for a Sony framework, named OPEN-R. This framework allows users to write programs for Sony's robots (namely the dog AIBO). But Sony has discontinued the robotics division and they won't provide support for the framework. I already have the initial code running. I can already compile the code for a non-MIPS platform (their robots are MIPS based) and also load the code and run it. Of course there are still many function stubs. My question is about legal things. Is it considered reverse-engineering to re-implement the Sony's framework (the API is somewhat documented)? Did you have some law problems with Microsoft? One more thing: How do you do with the headers? do you use original Microsoft's headers or did you rewrite them? I'm currently using Sony's headers, which can't be redistributed. So I also have a problem here. How can I rewrite the headers, so that they aren't considered a copy?? I would love if you could answer my questions, so that I can make the project public as soon as possible. Best Regards, Nuno P.S.: btw, nice work with valgrind ;) I think I'll start to test my windows apps for memleaks in linux.

OLEAUT32: bug 4502 - request for comment before trying to fix

by Alex Villacís Lasso

I would like to draw attention to bug 4502. This bug can cause any VB application to crash when the DatePicker control is used, and an attempt is made to assign a date value in VB code. Even though I found this bug while testing an application I wrote, this might not be specific to this application. It is only recently that I have some time to dedicate to this bug, but I would like somebody to comment on this. When the sample application is run with WINEDEBUG=ole,variant, the failing invocation looks like this: trace:ole:ITypeInfo_fnInvoke (0x7fdd5440)(0x7fd9f61c,id=20,flags=0x00000004,0x7fa3ee8c,(nil),0x7fa3ee6c,0x7fa3ee9c) trace:ole:dump_DispParms args=1 named args=1 trace:ole:dump_Variant 0x7fa3eef4->{VT_DATE(38788,0x7fa3ec7c) trace:variant:VarUdateFromDate (38788,0x00000000,0x7fa3ec36) trace:ole:dump_Variant ,2006/03/12 00:00:00} trace:ole:ITypeInfo_fnInvoke invoking: L"Value"(1) parm0: L"Value" memid is 00000014 Param 0: tdesc.vartype 12 (VT_VARIANT) u.paramdesc.wParamFlags PARAMFLAG_FIN u.paramdesc.lpex (nil) funckind: 1 (pure virtual) invkind: 4 (property put) callconv: 4 (stdcall) oVft: 224 cParamsOpt: 0 wFlags: 3c elemdescFunc (return value type): tdesc.vartype 25 (VT_HRESULT) u.paramdesc.wParamFlags PARAMFLAGS_NONE u.paramdesc.lpex (nil) helpstring: L"Returns/sets the current date." entry: (null) trace:ole:ITypeInfo_fnInvoke changing args trace:ole:dump_Variant 0x7fa3eef4->{VT_DATE(38788,0x7fa3ec7c) trace:variant:VarUdateFromDate (38788,0x00000000,0x7fa3ec36) trace:ole:dump_Variant ,2006/03/12 00:00:00} trace:variant:VariantChangeTypeEx (0x7fdd5520->(VT_DATE),0x7fa3eef4->(VT_DATE),0x00000400,0x0000,VT_VARIANT) trace:variant:VariantClear (0x7fa3ec40->(VT_EMPTY)) trace:variant:VariantClear (0x7fa3ec30->(VT_EMPTY)) trace:variant:VariantCopyInd (0x7fa3ec30->(VT_EMPTY),0x7fa3eef4->(VT_DATE)) trace:variant:VariantCopy (0x7fa3ec30->(VT_EMPTY),0x7fa3eef4->(VT_DATE)) trace:variant:VariantClear (0x7fa3ec30->(VT_EMPTY)) trace:variant:VARIANT_Coerce (0x7fa3ec40->(VT_EMPTY),0x00000400,0x0000,0x7fa3ec30->(VT_DATE),VT_VARIANT) trace:variant:VariantClear (0x7fa3ec40->(VT_EMPTY)) trace:variant:VariantClear (0x7fa3ec30->(VT_DATE)) trace:variant:VariantChangeTypeEx returning 0x80020005, 0x7fdd5520->(VT_DATE) err:ole:ITypeInfo_fnInvoke failed to convert param 0 to VT_VARIANT from VT_DATE trace:ole:ITypeInfo_fnInvoke -- 0x80020005 The Property Put seems to be declared as taking one VT_VARIANT parameter, and the VB code supplies a VT_DATE value. Therefore, an attempt is made to coerce VT_DATE --> VT_VARIANT. However, VariantChangeTypeEx() does not support conversion of *any* kind of variant into VT_VARIANT, so the call fails, and this brings down the application. I was on half a mind to add the VT_VARIANT conversion to VariantChangeTypeEx() myself, but then I checked the tests for this operation, and it seems that the absence of support for VT_VARIANT is actually expected (unless I am misreading the code). Therefore, one of the following two things is happening: 1) There is some error in the reading of the typelib, since a Property Put should not have a VT_VARIANT parameter in the first place. 2) ITypeInfo::Invoke should do the VT_VARIANT conversion itself, precisely because VariantChangeTypeEx() won't do it. I am inclined to the second option, but I want to hear some comment before attempting to create a patch. Alex Villacís Lasso

wglMakeCurrent

by Wino Rojo

Hi I'm pretty new to wine, and this is my first post to the wine-devel list....I hope this is the correct place to send my question I'm having problems with wglMakeCurrent. I wrote a small OpenGL test program, but it's not working under wine (it works perfectly on Windows). When I call wglMakeCurrent, wine outputs this error: X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 144 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent) Serial number of failed request: 120 Current serial number in output stream: 120 I activated the debug output for opengl, and I can see that the problem is a mismatch between the default visual ID and my program visual ID. At the top of the debug output, I see this: trace:opengl:X11DRV_setup_opengl_visual Visual ID 21 Chosen and later, when I create my OpenGl context: trace:opengl:X11DRV_SetPixelFormat - VISUAL_ID 0x23 Obviously, the problem is that my visual ID doesn't match with the X-Window's default, but I need to work using my visual (because I need alpha planes) Any known workaround or is this a bug on wine's implementation of wglMakeCurrent?

Perhaps then the best for Winetools users and Wine developers is to enable Winetools to be distributed with it's own version of Wine (as cx-office and cedega do it) and (as someone else already suggested) to save it's data and fake Windows under .winetools . That would also prevent problems when a distribution contains a version of Wine that is not supposed to be used with the contained version of Winetools. For example afaik the SUSE factory tree contains Wine 0.9.5 and Winetools 0.9jo but your website suggests Wine 0.9.{1,2,3} for that Winetools version.

IMHO, wine-cvs with all packages is not a good idea. I'm testing xubuntu and i do not want to install kde/gnome. Using multiple packages (wine-kde-cvs / wine-gnome-cvs / ...) are hard to maintain. And what about the different audio-driver? Even more difficult is the OpenGL-Part (mesa / nvidia / ati) I split the List in the Wiki to make clear, for which dlls which packages are needed. The split is not complete yet, and IMHO the List is also wrong (examples: libusb-dev, libqt3-mt-dev) Feel free to update Fedora similar. -- By by ... Detlef

My guess why Munich doesn't like Wine

by Dan Kegel

After poking at the apps they tested with, the conclusion is: they wanted something that could run Access and Oracle client apps, and Wine just wasn't there yet. It still isn't, judging by my quick tests. Given that the world kind of treats this as a must, perhaps it could be added as a criterion for a 1.0 release.

Oracle Express Client under Wine - install fails in advapi.CreateService

by Dan Kegel

At the risk of posting too much information, here's another roadblock faced by an important potential user. keeptool.com's hora.exe (one of the apps needed by the european government desktop migration) is an Oracle DBA helper tool, and testing it means connecting to an Oracle database. That means, I think, installing the Oracle client library under Wine. Sadly, this fails during install; the installer claims that advapi.CreateService is crashing. ( See http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4802 ) Somebody with a little free time could probably learn more by adding more trace statements in CreateService. - Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv

DDraw over WineD3D - Indexed colour visuals

by Adam Luchjenbroers

I've been using and tracking Stefan Dossinger's work re: DDraw over WineD3D and decided try and find out if IWineD3DSurface was far enough along to be able to be used in place of IWineX11Surface for 2d applications (Hopefully to eliminate depth conversion issues). Short answer, no. Long answer, Screen displays blank, trace log shows that glReadPixels at line 615 in wined3d\surface.c (LockRect) is failing with error GL_INVALID_OPERATION. Further investigation reveals that this is because glFormat is GL_COLOR_INDEX, yet the display is an RGB visual (presumably because an indexed colour visual was not available, and this buffer is connected directly to the screen). I figured I'd look to the people already familiar with the WineD3D\DDraw codebase before I tried to figure out my own solution. -- "Most people would rather die than think; in fact, they do so." - Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)

Further investigation reveals that this is because > glFormat is GL_COLOR_INDEX, yet the display is an RGB visual (presumably > because an indexed colour visual was not available, and this buffer is > connected directly to the screen). That is not supported right now. My current priority is to get all previously supported apps working in the way they where working before. Roderic has posted a patch for the current ddraw code to address this, this could be used to extend WineD3D. At the moment I have problems with LockRect / UnlockRect, described here: http://archives.free.net.ph/message/20060213.220622.51814d8e.en.html (The sf.net archives broke the attachmet). This is needed for DDraw, and it's also a showstopper for many D3D7 games. So what's basically needed for DDraw over opengl: * Indexed colours * Better UnlockRect code * Handling for all Blit cases in BltOverride * A opengl accellerated BltFast override

I must really say I agree with you here, Jeremy. I think what Dan is doing for wine is excellent, and I for one appreciate him keeping us abreast of his efforts and the problems he encounters. The apps he's working with are really important for a lot of people, and as such they probably need our attention so we can make Wine a more viable alternative. I don't think Dan is spamming wine-devel at all; in fact I'd like to see him keep letting us know about all of these things. Just my two cents...
