What happened to the Fedora packages?
by Neal Gompa Aug. 2, 2014

Aug. 2, 2014

What happened to the Fedora packages? They have not been updated since 0.9.2!!!! Right now it is at 0.9.10!!! Nearly every other Linux distro supported has the up to date packages!!! And why does the Red Hat packages site not go to the SourceForge site as it does for SUSE packages and the others?? I have not really had the guts to ask until now, because I thought that maybe there was a slump, but now, its getting annoying!! And Fedora just released Fedora Core 5 yesterday!!! Please tell me new packages will be ready soon!!! Compiling WINE always crashes my computer, so I prefer to use the RPMs...

The status of the wintab dll
by Robert North Dec. 24, 2007

Dec. 24, 2007

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I think after the 10 or more patches to the Wintab dll that I submitted last month, I should say something about it's status... And of course thank Alexandre for applying those patches. P.S. I won't be available from the 15th for about a week or so. So, if you have any questions, I'm afraid you might have to be patient. Hope this is of interest to someone -Rob. ******Applications: Current status*********** ***In Painter 5 *Cursor pressure works. (Therefore is usable by most) *Cursor orientation is a little odd: The orientation maths needs to be re-done. *No eraser. Haven't yet cracked what enables the eraser. *Doesn't work in desktop mode: Need to map to desktop coordinates. *Repeats windows bugs where cursor looses pressure/orientation info almost bug for bug (Is this a feature? ;-) *Cannot detect pressure/orientation int the "Brush Tracking" window: The tablet context is attached to the main window, so no events get to the popup, even if they overlap. This is not how windows wintab functions. ***In Photoshop 6. *Can only get tablet data in desktop mode: This is because the tablet context is attached to the desktop. Which generates/receives no wine events outside desktop mode. * Eraser and pen pressure working. *But* to get them working, you must have 3 XInput devices listed in your XF86Config file, They need to be the last entries in the "ServerLayout" section and the following order: eraser, tablet mouse. This is a far from ideal way of specifying the devices Wintab should use :-/ I'll document this if someone can point me to a good place to put the docs. *******To Do************* 1. Look at X11 errors. There appear to be some errors that deny some users the ability to access Wintab enabled apps. (I think I know how to fix this) 2. Improve orientation data. Orientation comes in as X-Y coords (Implicit Z), and has to leave as spherical coords. This calculation needs to be re-done. 3. When tablet context is on top, let it read XInput events from all the app's top-level windows. (This simulates the fact that the context is usually designed to cover the whole screen) 4. When tablet context is attached to desktop, read XInput events from all the app's top-level windows. 5. Tests ~ --My current philosophy on tests is... ~ Use Photoshop & Painter, any formal tests ~ can be written if anyone else gets involved in patching Wintab, to avoid regressions, and conflict. **********Long term to do (Anyone interested?):********* There's a lot of work that could be done here, but what gets done and who does it probably depends upon whether anyone finds an app that needs these features. I'd love to implement these, but realistically, I don't foresee doing this unless someone hires me to do so ;) 1. Improve configuration of wintab. Wintab could probably do with some information entered into the config file, to avoid the user having to hack their Xfree86cfg file. 2. Handle Z-Order of context properly. This entails *sharing Z-Order between apps. *Working out exactly what role windows have in determining tablet context z-orders. *Allow tablet contexts that don't cover the whole screen/tablet. *Handle inter-application clipping of tablet contexts *Allow all application's windows to receive tablet events when tablet context is on top 3. Implement non-system tablet contexts (Where system cursor not moved by pen or mouse) 4. Unicodify 5. Implement various wintab extensions. 6. Implement wintab manager functions. 7. Tests. *********Unknowns********* 1. How are wintab contexts are raised lowered? Contexts have their own z-order independent of windows, and their own viewport concept, based upon the tablet's coordinate system, not that of the OS. It appears that entering, or clicking on the window the tablet context is attached to will raise/lower the context. But I haven't done much testing on this. In particular, what happens if more than one app request their tablet context is attached to the desktop? 2. How Painter detects the eraser. Have 3 possibilities i. Windows can detect an eraser, and sends specific messages. (I'm sure I've seen this, but can't work out where!) ii. Only works if tablet and cursors are named correctly. (Probably linked to wacom tablets only). iii. I've missed something 3.

I'm sorry nobody got back to you -- the wine-devel mailing list might have been a better place to ask. I believe winelib runs on the following non-x86 operating systems: Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, and FreeBSD. There's no reason in principle it couldn't run on AIX or HP/UX. Some work has been done on an HP/UX port, but some assembly would be required to complete it: http://www.winehq.com/site/?issue=241#HP-UX%20Port Cheers, Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv

comctl32.dll: Running siap and modules under wine, first steps
by Maximiliano Curia June 12, 2006

June 12, 2006

Hi, I'm trying to use a program called "siap"[1] under wine. It's the required program to pay taxes that the Argentinian government uses. So, it's quite important for the free software community in Argentina to be able to use it in a free software environment. However, I haven't heard of any real success on it, so far. I've been trying to make it run using winetools[2], and differents versions of wine. The furthest I've gone, has been with version 20050310 and all the "plugins" that winetools provides, installed. Only then, could I install the application, run it, switch between the different modules (although it worked only sometimes), but I can't really use it. There are a couple of important widgets that seem to be incompatible with wine. But as I'm not an expert neither in Windows nor in wine, the one I could really track down is a TreeView widget (from comctl32.dll) (from the main window of the program), that is not fully implemented in wine, and by using a native comctl32.dll (I tried using the win98, winme, win2k libraries) the widget would work but some of the other stuff, like switching to one of the modules wouldn't. I made a screenshot to make this clearer, the wine version[3] and the w2k version[4]. So, what should I do next? Is there some documentation of how to implement a certain Windows widget in wine? Is anybody working in this dll, or has worked on this widget? I'd appreciate any comments. Thanks, [1] http://www.afip.gov.ar/programas/siap_main.asp (spanish only) [2] http://www.von-thadden.de/Joachim/WineTools/ [3] http://gnuservers.com.ar/~maxy/wine/siap-wine.png [4] http://gnuservers.com.ar/~maxy/wine/siap-w2k.png -- Saludos, /\/\ /\ >< `/

You can override mmap() in wine by just changing all the places it's called. (Having control over the source is a wonderful thing.) But if you want mmap to behave truly differently, you'd probably need to change the kernel.

DDraw over WineD3D - Indexed colour visuals
by Adam Luchjenbroers April 10, 2006

April 10, 2006

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)

Update on Software Freedom Law Center work
by Alexandre Julliard April 3, 2006

April 3, 2006

Folks, As announced at the last Wineconf, Jeremy and myself have been working for a few months now with the Software Freedom Law Center on a number of legal issues concerning Wine. We've been mostly quiet about it, so I thought I'd post a status update. There are two major tasks going on at the moment: 1. Code audit We are doing an audit of the code base, to make sure we have proper records of all contributions, and spot any potentially troublesome code. The goal is to be able to show to people who don't want to dig through the source that we have done our development properly, and that they can use Wine without fear of legal trouble. Currently, a survey is being sent out to people we have identified as major contributors, so that we can collect some information from them, like employers, license agreements, that sort of thing. This will enable us to build a complete track record for all contributions. We are still processing the results, at this point the responses we received cover approximately half of the code base (many thanks to everybody who took the time to answer!). We'll be sending the survey to more contributors in the near future to try to get as close to 100% coverage as we can. 2. Non-profit organization There are many advantages to having a non-profit organization for a project, for instance to allow tax-exempt donations, or hold assets like trademarks. However it's a lot of paperwork to do, so we never went to the trouble of setting one up. Now the SFLC is starting an organization called the Software Freedom Conservancy, that will be officially launched on Monday. It's basically an umbrella non-profit that provides services to free software projects. By joining that organization, we will get all the advantages of having our own non-profit, without having to do any of the work, so that seems like a good deal... There will also be the possibility of assigning our copyrights to that organization, which would make it easier to enforce the license, and provide some liability protection for developers. However this will only be done if most developers are comfortable with it, so I'd be interested to hear your feedback on this issue. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

Direct3D, the kernel and ReactOS
by Stefan Dösinger April 1, 2006

April 1, 2006

Hello List, I had a talk to the DirectX developers of reactos on their irc channel to discuss how Reactos and Wine can share efforts on DirectX. (Please leave the legal issues asside for now, let us concentrate on the technical part for now). I didn't expect much possibility for a cooperation in such a hw-related thing as DirextX, but Greatlord told me about the gdi / win32k problem Wine is heading to with the current DirectX code. According to Greatlord, Microsoft's DirectX implementation basically consists of a kernel-side part in gdi.dll and win32k.sys, and a user-mode part in ddraw.dll, d3d8.dll and d3d9.dll. The user dlls contain the Hardware emulation layer code, and calls to the kernel for the Hardware abstraction layer. Now that wouldn't be a problem for Wine, as applications are expected to use the user mode dlls, and using the kernel interface is highly discouraged by Microsoft. However, there are a few apps out there which access the kernel interface directly, and Greatlord told me that he knew about a few companies which plan to use it to gain speed improvement. Expectedly, such apps won't work on Wine. My long term suggestion is to move the Direct3D->OpenGL translation code from WineD3D to gdi and a win32k sys, and write ddraw.dll, d3d8.dll and d3d9.dll to use that interface. The user mode dlls can be shared with Reactos, and from a technical point of view, even Microsoft's DirectX dlls can be used on Wine(including the hardware emulation layer). I know that this is not easy to achieve. The kernel interface is poorly documented, and Greatlord has spent a lot of effort to verify the docs and to write a better documentation of the interface. Apps using the kernel interface should be considered broken, and I don't give them a long lifetime as the interface changes from Windows version to Windows version(According to Microsoft, Greatlord says it didn't change since NT(2K?) ). Should we go this way and implement the kernel Direct3D interface? If so, I consider this something post-1.0, and we should definitely see what changes Vista brings. Another thing we discussed was DirectInput. ReactOS uses wines dinput.dll, with improvements which gets the sdk demos and some nasty games working. I can see if I can merge the changes to Wine.

Keyboard Rewrite
by Tom Spear March 31, 2006

March 31, 2006

Hi all, this is a call for volunteers. I am hoping that certain developers participating in another thread are willing to rewrite the keyboard code, but we need people to test. If you are interested, please reply here saying that you are interested, and what kind of keyboard you use, as well as the layout you use under X. I will be creating a wiki page for this project once the people who will be taking on this rewrite confirm that they will do so, and will post the link to this thread as soon as it is created. The purpose of this rewrite is to (hopefully) fix all of the problems people have with key mappings, characters not showing up as expected, race conditions, characters not showing up at all, etc, and hopefully allow us to close out many of the bugs in bugzilla having to do with the keyboard. Thanks all in advance Tom

Improper message recursion revealed by recent desktop window changes
by Troy Rollo March 31, 2006

March 31, 2006

The recent changes to the desktop have revealed a problem with recursive processing of X messages. The problem started to manifest with commit 1a4f6e579b6aab685fae2e649fd5accee7ec0b4f (7th March). A symptom is a stack that looks like this: <application Window procedure> WINPROC_wrapper ... CallWindowProcW ... SendMessageW X11DRV_SetWindowPos SetWindowPos X11DRV_ConfigureNotify process_events X11DRV_MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx wait_message_reply send_inter_thread_message SendMessageTimeoutW SendMessageW send_parent_notify DestroyWindow In other words, a destroy notification is being sent to the parent window with SendMessageW, and before that message returns an unrelated X message is processed. Under Windows the equivalent could never happen - if a thread is in SendMessage(), the only messages that can be delivered to it are ones sent by SendMessage() from another thread. The consequences of this can be unpleasant if the code that processes (in this case a window movement notification) the message interferes with state that is being dealt with in earlier stack frames. wait_message_reply calls X11DRV_MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx with: res = USER_Driver->pMsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx( 1, &server_queue, INFINITE, QS_ALLINPUT, 0 ); The brute-force approach of changing this to the following makes the application work, but gives rise to some pack_message FIXMEs (for WM_NCPAINT and WM_ERASEBKGND), and since this is an extremely sensitive piece of code to change I thought it best left to people with more familiarity with it. -- Troy Rollo - wine(a)troy.rollo.name

That sort of inter-dll dependencies should be strongly discouraged, and we don't want to add more of it than strictly necessary; as far as possible we also don't want dlls to depend on private headers, so copying a few things across is the preferred approach.

advpack: The Plan
by James Hawkins March 31, 2006

March 31, 2006

Hey, As you've probably noticed, I've been working on implementing advpack for a couple months now; a lot of progress has been made, and I'm glad to say that the end is in sight. The rest of this email details the game plan for finishing advpack. advpack has five main install functions: DoInfInstall, ExecuteCab, LaunchINFSection, LaunchINFSectionEx, and RunSetupCommand. They all basically do the same thing with minor differences in functionality. ExecuteCab extracts the files to install from a cab archive, LaunchINFSectionEx provides backup and rollback capability, and RunSetupCommand can also launch executables. When installing an INF section, advpack calls setupapi to install the base INF commands, such as CopyFiles and AddReg. After this, advpack parses the Advanced INF for advanced commands that are only installable when using advpack. These commands include: Values: RequiredEngine - Use either setupapi or setupx, we will ignore it. CustomDestination - assigns ldids to extra directories. SmartReboot - same reboot options as LaunchINFSection. Cleanup - deletes the INF when the install/uninstall is finished if this is 1. CheckAdminRights - check if the user is admin if this is 1. Actions: RegisterOCXs UnregisterOCXs BeginPrompt EndPrompt RunPreSetupCommands RunPostSetupCommands DelDirs PerUserInstall Backup/Rollback: ComponentName ComponentVersion BackupReg PreRollBack BackupPath Internally, there will be three main install functions: install_init, which will open the INF, make sure it's legit, and other initializations, spapi_install, which will call setupapi to install the base INF commands, and adv_install, which will parse the install section and run the provided commands. Each advanced command will be implemented by a function of similar name, e.g., RegisterOCXs would be implemented by the function register_ocxs, etc. All the command functions will be in a hash map, the key being the command name, the value being a pointer to the function that implements the command. adv_install will use setupapi to parse the entries of the install section, calling the function returned by a query to the hash map. According to INF Web [1], some commands are run before others, so there will probably be three or four maps, the functions in the maps grouped according to the order in which the commands should be run. For example, RunPreSetupCommands is to be executed after the BeginPrompt command, so begin_prompt would be in the phase 1 map, and run_pre_setup_commands would be in the phase 2 map. We would call the parser like so: run_adv_commands("InstallSection", phase1_map); run_adv_commands("InstallSection", phase2_map); run_adv_commands("InstallSection", phase3_map); If a command in the install section is not in the map, we just ignore it. This is The Plan so far, so if anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I'd love to hear from you. Thanks, James Hawkins [1] http://www.winpack.org/petr/INF_web/

Very old Windows programs and Wine
by Segin March 31, 2006

March 31, 2006

I have come forth with a Windows program -- complete with source and binary -- designed for Windows 2.03 (as from the binary headers, i learned a bit about NE headers trying to hack Win9x 16-bit apps onto windows 3.1, i did manage to get Defrag to work that way) Case and point, would anyone like to take a look at what all Wine can do with the source (winelib) and the binary (admittedly designed for a 8086.)

Why winetools is utterly useless, once and for all.
by Segin March 31, 2006

March 31, 2006

There is one reason, inarguable (if you reply to this you have a IQ of 0) as to why WineTools is useless: Most of the WineTools 'magic' is in it's ~/.wine/config file, which Wine no longer uses/acknoleges, thefore, WineTools is utterly useless and has no point in existing AT ALL, PERIOD.

Firstly, it should continue, not break. Secondly, I think it only doesn't need to free the string if it has a size. I'm pretty sure it shouldn't depend on being a unique string. -- Rob Shearman

OT: General behaviour of the community (from 'Why winetools is utterly useless, once and for all')
by Dr J A Gow March 30, 2006

March 30, 2006

I was interested to read several comments on this list in respect of such comments as 'IQ of zero'. Such comments were the final straw in leading me to take this action. A few days ago I sent a comment to the list. Nothing really sinister, just an observation and an experience. Before long I had a particularly vicious and vile diatribe sent in reply to my comment - to my private email address. I have appended the lower headers and the bulk of the message I received at the end of this message (trimming the html from the bottom). I thought long and hard before taking this action. It is not something I would normally do, but in this instance I was so incensed at this individual's behaviour that I felt that 'naming and shaming' was the only way forward. Not even so much as to the fact that he directed his comments to me, but more the fact that had I been a new prospective developer, the effect such diatribe would have would not in any way be positive. It certainly would taint their perception of the open-source community. Furthermore I sincerely doubt that I am the only one to experience this behaviour. Others may just suffer in silence. I have worked with many smaller community projects, on OS/2 and latterly on Linux, and never been subjected to this kind of abuse from members of the community. I joined this list because I felt that there was something I could contribute to Wine, and in the instance it turned out that there was. I did not join it to receive unsolicited email of an abusive nature from members of the community. Had he done this by telephone I could have had him prosecuted, at least in the UK. But he hides behind a gmail.com address and makes comments I seriously suspect he would not have the balls to say to my face. No, I do not believe that we need a 'net police force'. Common decency between individuals, however, is essential. Diversity, discussion, criticism, expression, even annoyance are all valuable when driving a project forward. Blatant personal abuse is not tolerable. It is not tolerable in society, it should not be tolerated in the developer community. The community needs to police itself, rather than be policed, and individuals who bring the community into disrepute need to be dealt with by the community. That is why I bring this into the open. How to prevent such actions? I do not think it that this is possible in its entirety. I can (and have) simply add this individual's address to my blocked list. However, I may have been a newcomer to open-source development who would not have been so tolerant, and whose opinions of the community may have been changed by this action. May I suggest that whoever is responsible for the hosting of the mailing list change the configuration so that email addresses are not placed in the header? (I am no expert on mailing-list software but it does not immediately seem to be impractical.) That way all replies have to go to the list and this would prevent such unsolicited email being sent. This is my last word on this matter. Make of it what you will. I refuse to be prevented from contributing to vital projects such as Wine when I can by the antics of some depraved individual. It has left a sour taste in my mouth though, and like it or not, it does not portray Wine developers in a good light. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Disposition-Notification-To: Segin <segin2005(a)gmail.com> Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2006 15:01:11 -0500 From: Segin <segin2005(a)gmail.com> User-Agent: Mozilla Thunderbird 1.0.7 (X11/20051202) X-Accept-Language: en-us, en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Dr J A Gow <J.A.Gow(a)furrybubble.co.uk> Subject: Re: Winetools -> wine doors References: <1143192770.25116.22.camel(a)despair.kent-music.com> <442441D7.7020107(a)furrybubble.co.uk> In-Reply-To: <442441D7.7020107(a)furrybubble.co.uk> Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="------------010900050103010506060607" X-BV-Spam-Score: 0.4 (/) X-Envelope-From: segin2005(a)gmail.com X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------010900050103010506060607 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Dr J A Gow wrote: > >> I've looked through the winetools code and it is a clusterf*ck of >> nonsense.

> How do you propose we prevent people from emailing people that post to > wine-devel? How do we choose who gets to email people directly and > who doesn't? How do we filter the contents of their email? I want to chime in and say that I'm with Tom and the ole Doc here. I don't think there's any way to filter somebody's contents, but I think it's important for the community to speak up when somebody is out of line. I know I was the first to respond to Sergin's email by asking that he be more constructive in his feedback, but past that, none of the regulars on this thread said much. Now, his thread has spawned into something that is soooo far out there that it almost has no relevancy to this list. I want to note that I don't see how Sergin's comments and behavior could have been interpreted as anything but inappropriate; however, with the majority of people not saying anything, I can only imagine that Sergin felt that what he did was perfectly okay and acceptable on this list. I'm trying to say two things here: 1) If somebody says/ does something that is not okay, say something to that person. Of course, be constructive about it. For example, when I first joined this list, people got upset that I was top-posting - I learned that it was not ok in this community because people said someting. So, I try to bottom post (when I remember.) 2) I've always said Wine is an awesome thing - probably the best thing to come out of the Linux community since ... well, Linux and its desktops. Now, more than ever, Wine need as many developers as possible to keep it improve b/c as Linux adoption continues people will look to Wine and CrossOver for application cross-compatibility. And, I'm not talking about the developer who pops in with a patch every 6 months (I see that person as a patch submitter), but instead, I'm talking about a developer who dedicated him/herself to the Wine project. And with that, the team can't afford to lose that good talent b/c the "newbie talent" was mistreated in this community. Those are my 2 cents that I think will go a long way. Thanks, Hiji

Interesting D3D testapp
by Willie Sippel March 30, 2006

March 30, 2006

Hi there. I think I just found a very nice D3D testapp: fr-025 by Farbrausch. A nice, small (8.2MB) graphics demo, already works somewhat with Wine (starts, plays, music and everything works, good performance), but lots and lots of effects are simply missing or wrong. It does quite a bit interesting stuff wined3d doesn't seem to handle: strange viewport handling, glow, blending, reflections, blur(?). So many unimplemented features I won't even dare to file bugreports for every single one... :) It's the all-time most popular demo on pouet.net (obviously, given it's called "fr-025 - the.popular.demo" ;) ) You can get it at: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=9450 -- Willie Sippel //////// | Tritium Studios // | ______________________________ //// /// | http://www.tritium-studios.com <willie(a)froq.net>

Debugging X errors?
by Dan Kegel March 28, 2006

March 28, 2006

OK, I've had it. The X errors I'm running into are keeping me from getting work done. They might be due to bugs in my X server (ubuntu 05.10), but while I wait for the next release of ubuntu, maybe I could try to track them down anyway. It looks like the procedure for diagnosing X errors such as X Error of failed request: BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 17 (X_GetAtomName) Atom id in failed request: 0x0 Serial number of failed request: 468 Current serial number in output stream: 470 in Wine is to do WINEDEBUG=+synchronous export WINEDEBUG and then use winedbg to run the apps, and get a backtrace when the error occurs. I'll try that. - Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv

I have a complaint about the website
by Philip V. Neves March 28, 2006

March 28, 2006

On the website there is an article that talks about homogenious populations being a threat to society and to the computer industry. Although I accept the fact that this is mostly true I believe that is a good argument for creating the Linux OS and other OS's not for creating wine. With the wine project you are bringing the homogenious population to the Linux community. So theoretically a virus could spread just as easily through a wine system as well as a Windows system. That virus could spread even if the security in Linux is in place. The wine installation could be affected and we have to reinstall the wine directory. I'd appreciate it if you guys would take that out of the website. I feel it hurts the credibility of your project by having it there. The fact is if a company has a wine installation they could have a large number of appications that could be affected by a virus. Wine running on a different system won't fix that. Although the security system in Linux could provide some security against accessing more vital parts of the system, the wine installation is still vulnerable due to the fact its implementing windows system calls. I have infact found viruses with Clam after installing wine. So I don't feel that this statement is true.

GL_FRONT and GL_FRONT_LEFT mean the same unless the drawable is stereo. And I don't think PBuffers or Pixmaps can be stereo, so is there any special reason to use GL_FRONT_LEFT ? Or is it because the spec sais so? tom

This discussion should be out of the wine-devel list (we should not mix things up and wine devel folks are already too busy) 2) the winedoors should return some information to the AppDB in order to keep that information for the wine devel folks get some feedback what is going on with, for example, DLL overrides. For example, if the AppDB keeps track of the most overriden DLLs (information "feeded" by winedoors - or winetools 8)) I think wine developers could query the database in order to see which DLL needs some improvement because its is the most one overriden. One more thing, I like Winetools. It helped me a lot. Does it need improvement? Yes, it needs, but it is not the reason we may "burn" it.

Also stuff like the clearing of DR6 needs a > test case, that's something that's visible from the application. Oh, I forgot to mention another thing. I didn't start all this for nothing. I made my changes to raise_trap_exception() to make an existing application (Kindler Lexikon) work. Now, the copy protection mechanism in Kindler Lexikon uses a DOS application (no kidding!), so if you accept the VM86-related stuff that I posted earlier, so that raise_trap_exception() is not used for VM86-generated debug traps, it would probably be enough. However, as a side effect I noticed that the code does not work well, so I fixed it. If my fix is not good enough, well, then the UNIX ABI is not good enough, because: 1. A SIGTRAP can be delivered as a result of: a. INT 1 (single step or hardware breakpoint) b. INT 3 (INT3 or INT 03) c. kill() or tgkill() on the process 2. sc_trapno in sigcontext is set correctly by Linux only for 1a and 1b. The value of sc_trapno for 1c is undefined (and it may be even 1 or 3; I can provide a test case if needed). 3. Since you want to raise a BREAKPOINT exception for 1c, a BREAKPOINT exception with ExceptionAddress decremented by 1 for 1b and a SINGLE_STEP exception for 1a, you have to distinguish between those three cases. 4. You can tell the 1c case from 1b or 1c from the si_code in siginfo. However, this field might not be available. Things are even worse, because even TRAP_sig might be unavailable on some platforms! 5. Since the kernel does not provide enough information to distinguish between 1a, 1b and 1c, you have to investigate the reason yourself. There is no other way to detect a hardware breakpoint than to look at DR6. Additionally, since the bits would get stuck for all subsequent SIGTRAPs, we need to clear them. There is no other way to detect an INT3 breakpoint than to look at the code that immediately precedes the exception address. However, there is no guarantee that this address is mapped at all (a hardware breakpoint may occur anywhere, even at the first opcode of a page). Since native Windows won't crash in such cases, neither should we. That's why the whole thing is in a TRY block. Pretty long, huh? Petr Tesarik

I don't want to cause unnecessary conflicts, so I _have_ written a test case, where Wine does a lot of application-visible things differently. Anyway, I've provided an improvement which only needs to do such things as a fallback on platforms, where the cause of the SIGTRAP cannot be determined easily. In my opinion, the solution is reasonable because if any application is really interested in the DR6 register (i.e. it is a debugger), it will clear the status register (DR6) anyway, since the processor never clears the bits and unless you clear them manually, the register gets pretty useless. I wonder why you haven't been bothered by the fact that the current implementation silently drops the TF bit, which is even worse! :O Petr Tesarik

FPU context in signal handlers
by Petr Tesarik March 27, 2006

March 27, 2006

Hi, I've just submitted a patch that handles the FPU state in signal handlers. However, the FPU_sig() macro is only defined for Linux, so other architectures won't benefit from that patch. I doubt that i387 FPU state is left untouched by the kernel on other architectures, but I have no access to any such box (*BSD, BSDI, SCO, Apple), I cannot investigate into that, and the FPU handling is most likely broken on those architectures. This has become more serious now that winedbg tries to fetch (and restore!) the FPU state on the i386 architecture. I guess that architectures with (context)->uc_mcontext also define (context)->uc_mcontext.fpregs (SCO), but since I can't test it, I won't send such a patch to wine-patches. Is there anything I might do about it? Anybody wants to help? Petr

Regression in wine made 2006/03/23
by Pavel Troller March 27, 2006

March 27, 2006

Hi! I would like to report a regression made by commits issued 2006/03/23 at the evening. Just now I don't have bisecting environment available, I've just made a simple CVS regression testing and found the above commit (it modifies multiple areas) guilty. The problem is that DC++ gui is totally screwed up now. It tries to render, but mostly unsuccessfully, it's full of garbage and doesn't display, what it should. It doesn't update when necessary. DC++ is simply unusable now. I should leave my testing machine now. I can try to pinpoint a particular patch responsible for this regression later in the evening today, or tomorrow. If anybody has an idea, what change could cause this, please let me know, it will be more easy for me. With regards, Pavel Troller

Wine/Interix -- The pros and cons.
by Segin March 27, 2006

March 27, 2006

I was thinking about running Wine on Interix (the POSIX layer of Microsoft's Services for Unix). There are a few apparent unknows: Would Wine load the .dll.so's? Since Interix uses PE for it's native format (running on Windows, duh), Would Wine load the .dll.so's? Would it reject them being in PE format and having the 'POSIX Layer' attribute set, or could we hack on a patch to detect if Wine itself is running in said layer, and load them if it is? Would that even *work*? And how about detecting Winelib applications? It might get detected as a regular Windows app, and ... uh-oh... (let's just say it isn't pretty) There are several obvious pros: You can test Wine almost fully under Windows without mingling with Windows's native componets. This would allow for better and faster compatability tests. We could also see what "unknowns" exist in Interix -- Althought not nessessrarly useful to Wine developers itself, it could mean a whole new generation of applications which are half-Unix, half-Windows, if the right holes are found. I am sure this will spark a LOT of debate.

I know this affects the IE7 and MSI 3.1 installer, but probably more. ------------------ I've seen installers from Microsoft call QueryDosDevice on the whole alphabet and search any returned object name for the substrings "harddisk" and "ramdisk". On Wine they normally won't find any and quit with the following error: "Unable to find a volume for file extraction" QueryDosDevice on Wine returns the filename pointed to by the drive link beneath the dosdevices directory. In a default Wine installation this is ../drive_c. So a simple fix for this problem is to use the a different name for that directory, for example the name used for the first harddisk in the NT object namespace: harddiskvolume1. -Hans Changelog Use directory harddiskvolume1 for mapping drive C instead of drive_c.

stir stir stir

March 26, 2006

Deprived of patch-writing time lately I can do little more than cheer the team on. And of course, take pot-shots at our partners over the wall, the Windows team themselves ;) Hello there if you're reading this! In the comments of this anonymous MS employees blogs post (great reporting here huh) we can find this post by somebody who claims to be on an appcompat testing team: http://minimsft.blogspot.com/2006/03/vista-2007-fire-leadership-now.html#c1… in which the following totally astonishing claim is made: "Results: Client appcompat % hovering at <40% (GASP - INTERNAL INFO... better moderate this one out!!!!)" which is explained due to reduction of testing staff, loss of team morale and outsourcing of testing. Can it really be true that the Vista builds have such appallingly low application compatibility? Anybody who has access to Vista builds want to comment on this? Given they (now) have half a year to clean it up, does anybody want to take bets on what the score will be by the time it releases? I wonder what this number means (presumably that 40% of apps work perfectly out of the box), and I also wonder what our own appcompat score is. Wouldn't it be scary if Linux ends up more Windows compatible than Windows is! :) thanks -mike

Speed demon: Mozilla 1.7.12 and Wine.
by Segin March 25, 2006

March 25, 2006

This is possibly the best news the Wine development team has recieved since getting Solitare to run on Wine in 1994: Wine and Mozilla are *faster* than IE on native Windows, on the same harware. I am not joking you. I used to have a Windows partition until it was corrupted recently, and my "personalized" Google homepage comes up in 2.31 seconds in IE. Note that Windows is running native (not a VM). Mozilla 1.7.12 in Wine pulls up the same page in under a second. I will continue to test. The only thing that is missing is Java support, and most of us can live without that. It's nice to know that we are mopping the floor with the World's Worst Webbrowser.

WGL_PBUFFER_LOST_ARB implementation
by Tomas Carnecky March 25, 2006

March 25, 2006

This patch implements 'WGL_PBUFFER_LOST_ARB'. It creates a new field in 'X11DRV_PDEVICE' which is used to store flags (currently only one: X11DRV_FLAG_DAMAGED). This flag indicates that the drawable (PBuffer) is damaged and no longer valid. As soon as the x11 driver receives the GLX_DAMAGED event it calls X11DRV_GLX_Event() which then set the flag. wglQueryPbufferARB() uses ExtEscape() to retrieve this flag and can decide whether the PBuffer is lost or not. This patch depends on one I've sent earlier to the wine-patches mailing list: '[x11drv] Move x11drv ExtEscape() codes to one common header file.'. Please look through this patch and tell me if I've done something horribly wrong or missed an important aspect. I'm very new to wine and I don't know what I am allowed to touch and what not. tom

Winetools -> wine doors
by Karl Lattimer March 25, 2006

March 25, 2006

I read your story about winetools a couple weeks ago around the same time that I tried using winetools on FC5 test 3, it didn't go well with winetools and I was looking for another solution and couldn't find one that fitted well with my criteria. I started thinking of packages like RPMs and started breaking down a wine application installation into what we would need to run it directly from the application menu. What I came up with this is, its pretty raw right now, its simply a small self contained package for managing the install process of a wine application, soon I'm going to start work on creating a package repository and the package browser but would really like to use the appdb for supplementary information, i.e. screenshots version compatibility etc... http://www.qdh.org.uk/wordpress/?cat=6 I have also considered having a way of making apps install gobally on a machine so any and every user has access to them, and considered using inotify to watch events and provide a way of handling this. This is still in the beginning stages and I would be grateful for any input you may have. I was very interested in what was published here, http://www.winehq.org/?issue=308#Winetools..%20part%20II I've looked through the winetools code and it is a clusterf*ck of nonsense. It appears to be in the final stages of code rot, however there are some useful little bits in there which I have been cannibalising when necessary into my own application. The beauty of this is that it is only an application shell, in theory the appdb could be the central configuration repository containing all the information to make an app work. Available apps can be browsed, downloaded if possible or installed from a cd drive with minimal fuss. I have one other who has joined in the project, his name is Alex Doukas and I believe he has also recently joined wine-devel. Right now we're at the stage of building up some script archives and starting to put together application packs for the most important stuff, I will be working on the downloaders/xml parsers within the next couple of weeks and hopefully we should soon have a working application where the community keeps it up to date. To prevent duplication of work I would suggest that suggestions to my project will be accepted, I hope to provide some public space for bug tracking etc... in the next couple of weeks and even public SVN. I currently have this configured and running but unfortunately do not have a great deal of bandwidth. The more people who join in the better, python programmers especially welcome, any scripts should eventually be posted to the bugzilla. Once the application db and my application fit together nicely we could have users publishing scripts in the appdb.

Bug 4806 - CpuDetect.dll missing (need help)
by Tom Spear March 25, 2006

March 25, 2006

When trying to load up various apps, users are having problems with wine causing the program to say that certain files are missing, even when run from within the program directory (where the file that is supposedly missing is).. The problem has been narrowed down to this patch: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-cvs/2006-January/020072.html ..It seems to be that wine thinks the header is bigger than the file to be read. Louis Lenders and Tony Lambregts have narrowed it down to one line, which commenting out causes the programs to work.. After they added some traces to the code, it appears that the st.st_size variable is correct but the header_size variable is incorrect.. My question is where is wine pulling the header size from to fill into that variable to have given it the value that it is getting? And is there a simple (as well as proper) solution for this? Tom

monitoring OS API calls
by Saulius Krasuckas March 25, 2006

March 25, 2006

Hi, I mean Windows there - my primary aim is to monitor WinAPI calls. There exists quite a few of monitor apps to achieve this. But their nature is soft-intrusive - they patch system DLLs on disk or PE images in memory. I'd like to monitor calling of a functions from a lower-level side. One possibility is to rewrite system DLLs, which is hard in a case of Windows. Maybe another possibility can be to run OS in machine emulator and to break on reading/executing some virtual memory addresses? I imagine physical memory maps into linear addresses which maps into virtual addresses (perhaps into unshared space of each win32 process). Then it would be nice to implement a Debug Logging similar to one from the Wine project. [*] What effort is needed to implement breaking of emulation on execution of given/defined virtual addresses (plus reading a CPU state and virtual memory) of different Windows OS versions inside machine emulator? Can such code be put as some plugin to BOCHS or so? Maybe I need to look at the different machine virtualization projects like Qemu? [*] http://winehq.org/site/developer-cheatsheet

firefox dogfooding on 0.9.10 - png bux FIXED.
by Segin March 25, 2006

March 25, 2006

As of 0.9.10, the bug which caused all PNGs in Firefox to appear inverse is fixed. Also, for developers with slower machines, try using Mozilla 1.7.x, it's much much faster than Firefox. It may not have *as many* bugs, but it still brings up the same exact OLE problems which Firefox does, so using it is just as useful here.

GetExitCodeProcess always returns 1
by Igor Sysoev March 25, 2006

March 25, 2006

3 years ago I reported that on FreeBSD Wine-20030508's GetExitCodeProcess() always returns 1: http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-devel/2003/06/0100.html This report included a small test case. It was fixed by patch: http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-devel/2003/06/0381.html and I used the patched Wine-20030508 to run MSVC, OpenWatcom C, and Borland C in a command line. Recenty I build Wine-0.9.10 from ports on FreeBSD 6.1, but GetExitCodeProcess() still always returns 1. Igor Sysoev http://sysoev.ru/en/

CreateScalableFontResourceA: what does it mean?
by Hiji March 24, 2006

March 24, 2006

There is this program, Cakewalk Sonar XL 2 (http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=2615) that I always try to run on Wine. The good news is, I can get it running, not smoothly, but it does run. However, it tries to utilize one of its own fonts, and always stubs on CreateScalableFontResourceA. It hits this: fixme:font:CreateScalableFontResourceA (0,"C:\\PROG~FBU\\Cakewalk\\SONA~3TJ\\TTSNOTE.FOR","C:\\PROG~FBU\\Cakewalk\\SONA~3TJ\\TTSNOTE.TTR",(null)): stub Then the app tells me the following in a popup: "Cannot create the Staff view musical symbol font." Anybody know what this means or have any workaround for making CreateScalableFontResourceA work? I've seen this problem since Dec. 2004, but since it hasn't gone away, I thought I'd pipe up and ask about it. Thanks in advance!

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've been able to get Wine working on FC5, both from source and from RPM and neither seems to have the smooth font support. Is there some new option that is needed for FC5 support. I had Notes 6.51 working very nice under FC4, but it has some weird drawing issues in FC5. I'm guessing it has something to do with the new xorg packages, but any ideas would be helpful.

Race condition in keyboard code?
by Peter Åstrand March 24, 2006

March 24, 2006

Hi, I've been debugging a very strange keyboard problem this afternoon: In some cases the key combination AltGr+2 produces "2" (wrong) rather than "@" (correct), when using a Swedish layout. The problem seems to be a race condition: If a KeyEvent occurs almost directly after the "2" key is pressed, the AltGr state is incorrect. The problem has been verified with this simple test program: /* gcc -Wall xfake.c -o xfake -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lXtst */ #include <X11/Xlib.h> #include <X11/extensions/XTest.h> int main( int argc, char* argv[] ) { Display* dpy; dpy = XOpenDisplay( NULL ); XTestFakeKeyEvent(dpy, 0x71, True, CurrentTime); XTestFakeKeyEvent(dpy, 0xb, True, CurrentTime); XSync(dpy, False); //sleep(1); XTestFakeKeyEvent(dpy, 0x71, False, CurrentTime); XTestFakeKeyEvent(dpy, 0xb, False, CurrentTime); XCloseDisplay( dpy ); return 0; } (0x71 is Mode_Switch, 0xb is the "2" key). I'm executing the program while having Wines Notepad active. If the sleep() is commented out, a "2" is inserted into Notepad. If the sleep() is active, "@" is inserted. More evidence: When debugging with WINEDEBUG=keyboard,key, the traces for X11DRV_ToUnicodeEx is printed after the Mode_Switch KeyRelease trace. Now I wonder, is this a problem with: 1) Wine or 2) The Windows API or 3) The way I'm using X11/the keyboard (generating events that quickly). ? I do understand why this happens: X11DRV_ToUnicodeEx uses the global, static variable AltGrMask. Is this a bug?

Re: [opengl] check drawable and context Visual IDs in wglMakeCurrent()

Tomas Carnecky wrote: > Changelog: > - fail if the drawable and context Visual IDs don't match. > > why? because this will produce a BadMatch and crash the application so > instead of the crash rather return GL_FALSE and let the application > handle it. Please don't apply this patch yet. It fixes one case but there is more to be aware of. This BadMatch bug is triggered if an application creates a window (with a default Visual ID) and a custom (non-default) pixel format, the IDs were 0x21 and 0x23 in my case (glxinfo/xdpyinfo report Visual ID in the range from 0x21 to 0x70). But! I've seen that World of Warcraft calls wglMakeCurrent() with a darawable that has Visual ID 0x71 and a context with Visual ID 0x21. Now 0x71 is not defined (according to the glxino output) but it works fine, eg. glXMakeCurrent() doesn't produce the X Error in that case. So I went up the backtrace, into create_glxpixmap(). I let this function fail if it would produce a X Error, eg. if "depth of pixmap does not match the GLX_BUFFER_SIZE value of vis". Then I had to modify wglMakeCurrent() to respect the create_glxpixmap() failure and return FALSE. Works good so far, framerate in WoW went up from ~20 to up to 70 fps, average is somewhere between 40-50 !!! This is incredible. So.. in this attachment you'll find a patch that does what I've just described. I can't test it on anything else than WoW, so if someone would please review it and test with outher opengl/d3d applications it would be great. Also, it would be great if we could put the *Swap*Buffers() into their own log domain, something like 'swapbuffers', because the trace is usually useless, only when you explicitly look whether these functions are called or not, otherwise they only fill the log with garbage. thanks tom

When apps exit, they often ask the rebar for current band info so that the next time they run, they can tell the rebar how to layout the bands. When they ask about the size of a band, current code passes them lpBand->cx, which is a value passed by apps at band creation time, validated and stored by rebar, and then never gets updated. So apps alway get the old size value, while lpBand->ccx as the name suggests is the current rebar size. Tested with some apps, and no regression observed. Source Insight works better, so is Internet Explorer. I have actually made more changes to rebar.c. Wondering if some could review this patch and submit it. So that I can suggest subsequent patches against the updated source. --------------------------------- Blab-away for as little as 1¢/min. Make PC-to-Phone Calls using Yahoo! Messenger with Voice.

Dev-C++ dogfooding
by Segin March 23, 2006

March 23, 2006

So far, everything works, except when you try to install a package that already is installed (of any version, so this also breaks upgrades via the package manager) Package manager starts up, presents you with a disloag (like aother package install) but when it goes to copy files, it open a dialog box with the error "Cannot Open AVI" with buttons which are clipped off (the window is a bit too small, push the farthest to the left to makei t resize and such.) It should be noted that a manual upgrade can be done by untarring the DevPak (it's a .tar.bz2) and copying the files manually, if the directory names aren't mangled. For some odd reason some files won't compile, yet others do, i can't explain it. Must be a MingW bug.

Keyboard fix - patch available

Hi all, Sorry for bothering you guys ..... but .... I saw a patch for bug #2400 (a very old bug) at http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2400 Looking at the comments at the bugzilla tracking, the patch worked flawlessly for lots of keyboard types (croatian, german and russian), including mine: a brazilian abnt2 keyboard. The patch looks fine and very clean. The problem mentioned with remote X-windows access seems not to occur besides someone mention it. Anyway, at least the problem is gone with local access and, *if confirmed*, remains with remote access only. Maybe, just maybe, the patch could be applied for the next version of wine (0.9.11) .... ;-) Thank you very much for the very good piece of work: WINE (I use it since 1999). --------------------------------------------------------- Ulisses de Sousa Penna Analista Consultor - Banco do Brasil Fone: +55-61-3310-6320 Fax: +55-61-3310-6435 --------------------------------------------------------- P.S.: I am not subscribed at wine-devel list (just wine-users list)

Easy applications to write automated tests for?
by Dan Kegel March 22, 2006

March 22, 2006

I noticed a probable regression in an app (kid pix 3) tonight. Which got me thinking: what are the easiest set of application regression tests we could throw together that go further than just verifying the installer runs? I'm thinking not just of things that could be automated with cxtest, but also stuff that might not fit into that framework. In the case of Kid Pix 3, a test that simply started the app, waited ten seconds, and made sure an error dialog didn't pop up would have detected the problem. ('Course, only a few people would be able to run that, as Kid Pix 3 is not a free download.) cxtest should be able to handle that. A bit more complex would be to launch WinZip, have it compress one file, and make sure the compressed file was as expected. It shouldn't be too hard to make cxtest handle that. And then on the somewhat ambitious end, now that Sun's JVM basically installs and runs trivial programs, we could run through the Java regression test suite at http://sourceware.org/mauve/ Heck, I might give that a shot myself. There's probably no reason to try to shove that into cxtest, is there? Or would it fit? And beyond the looking glass, one could imagine running the OpenOffice 2.0 automated test suite. (That's unlikely to work well at the moment, given that OpenOffice 2.0's open dialog locks up reliably.) That would probably flush out a few problems. - Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv

I think checking values explicitly is preferable to encoding them in the syntax, since it gives you a chance to provide meaningful errors.

linux mmap bug ? not filling in allocation gaps
by Geoff Brimhall March 22, 2006

March 22, 2006

I've been debugging why an n64 emulator ( Project64 ) gets "Failed to allocate memory" errors under wine 9.9.10 on linux kernel 2.6. The program allocates a large chunk of size 0x20100000, which succeeds, and then another large 0x10100000 chunk, which fails. WINEDEBUG=+relay,+virtual eventually brought me to look at the linux /proc/<pid>/maps to see if the address space was really fully allocated. Here's what I noticed: Address start - end: 00400000-0554000 - Project64.exe address 00554000-20000000 ---p large mem allocation *** <gap> *** 55555000-573e0000 - loaded shared libraries 573e0000-774e0000 ---p mem alloc of 0x20100000 7bf00000-7c003000 - wine-pthread 7c003000-7c1ee000 - [heap] 7ffe0000-fffe0000 ---p large mem allocation ffff7000-fffff000 - [stack] Wrote a test mmap binary to fill a process address space, it created a similar gap between the executable load address and the loaded shared libraries, eventually failing mmap calls when it hit the stack address space. When I updated the test app to explicitly mmap in the gap area via specifying the aligned start address, the mmap call succeeded. I can't be the first person to notice this. Are there any TODO solutions for this ? One linux-centric solution would be to look for gaps like this in /proc/<pid>/maps in the libs/wine/mmap.c and take advantage of this. Or maybe another would be to keep a table of address spaces returned in wine_anon_mmap as a guide, then validate with try_mmap_fixed as to where a next-allocation should occur ( would this solution work outside linux ) ?

WaitForMultipleObjectsEx will not take up to MAXIMUM_WAIT_OBJECTS
by Bryan Mayland March 21, 2006

March 21, 2006

I've been digging into why versions of uTorrent greater than 1.1.3 do not work under the latest wine and tracked it down to their use of WSAEventSelects to receive socket notifications. I created a small test application which mimics this behavior which works under WindowsXP but not wine. The problem is that they create MAXIMUM_WAIT_OBJECTS events and pass them to WaitForMultipleObjectsEx. That function bails out early due to dlls/kernel/sync.c:173: 176 if (count >= MAXIMUM_WAIT_OBJECTS) 177 { 178 SetLastError(ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER); 179 return WAIT_FAILED; 180 } Windows supports up to and including that number, wine only supports up to that number. Since the rest of the code actually does support the full 64 wait objects, is there any reason this should not be changed to 176 if (count > MAXIMUM_WAIT_OBJECTS)

function counting script, memcheck.sh
by Segin March 20, 2006

March 20, 2006

Attached is version 0.2 of this script, with a lot of additional functionality. You will need to be able to write to /tmp and make a file /tmp/grep to use the extended functionality (default functionality needs none of that, and is unmodified.) For those that are intested, you can fetch memcheck.sh from my project CVS tree: cvs -d:pserver:anonymous(a)cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/overdose login (when propted for a password, simply push enter) cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous(a)cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/overdose co overdose You'll find the memcheck.sh script in the CVS checkout. Could someone tell me how to checkout just a single CVS file? Anyways, there's the docs, which you should read (failure to do so will get a reply of RTFM): ----------------------------------8<--------------------------------- memcheck.sh version 0.2 documentation To change the functions searched for, edit the file's top line. make sure all functions are space seperated and in quotes, to search for recv() and send() make sure that top line looks like this: FUNCTIONS="recv send"; Three are 2 command line arguments supported, they must be the only argument and verbatim to work, yada yada. -l List the line number with a code sample -C Like above, but with context. You need write access to /tmp to create, read, write and destroy files. Your grep implementation needs to be GNU grep or you need to edit the script. Most systems have given up using their own grep for GNU grep cause GNU grep kicks ass. ----------------------------------8<---------------------------------

I don't think it would be that hard to realize. Right now we have the ENTER_GL() macro that gets called before each opengl call (see opengl_ext.c and norm.c) where the check and sync occurs. One solution would be to make two enter_gl functions -- one with the check and one without, and hardcode some database with the function list in the script that generates the files. This patch does already a great job for fixing Huw's regressions, and me and many Wine users would greatly appreciate its merge into Wine tree. Leon

Hi. I've got some Clipper files I want to translate to C for incorporation into another program, and a program x2c to do the work. But it asks for crt0.o, which I don't have as such; I'm wondering which of the *crt* files in Wine are most suitable for aliasing or linking as crt0.o?

rpaths not working?

Hi Alexandre, On my system at least it seems DLLs need the rpaths too, from a clean build of HQ git tree I get this when starting: 8697: file=/opt/wine/lib/wine/ntdll.dll.so [0]; needed by /opt/wine/bin/../lib/libwine.so.1 [0] 8697: file=/opt/wine/lib/wine/ntdll.dll.so [0]; generating link map 8697: dynamic: 0x7ffd52dc base: 0x7ff63000 size: 0x0007cb58 8697: entry: 0x7ff6f000 phdr: 0x7ff63034 phnum: 5 8697: 8697: 8697: file=libwine_unicode.so.1 [0]; needed by /opt/wine/lib/wine/ntdll.dll.so [0] 8697: 8697: file=/opt/wine/lib/wine/ntdll.dll.so [0]; destroying link map wine: failed to initialize: libwine_unicode.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory And sure enough the .dll.so files don't have an $ORIGIN/../ runpath in them. This seems like winebuild magic, at least, I didn't see any obvious places in the build system to add the flags. Any idea what's going wrong here? thanks -mike

Function counting script
by Segin March 19, 2006

March 19, 2006

As my small contribution, attached is a small shell script that, unmodified, finds out how many times certain functions are called in a given sample of files. The default functions are 'malloc', 'realloc', and 'free', and the sample files are all files ending in .c in the current directory. It even prints out the result in a neat manner on ANSI colourized terminals. The script is very flexible, and easy to modify. Current version is 256bytes long.

How hard would it be to support Java?
by Dan Kegel March 19, 2006

March 19, 2006

Quite a few apps use embedded JVM's. Case in point: SPSS, one of the apps requested by Munich. So I played around a bit with Sun's latest 1.5 JRE. It can run trivial apps, so I closed http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2953 (ok, maybe that was premature, since the bug was for Sun's 1.4 JRE). But it can't run applets; first, it runs into a nasty glx error, http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4143 Once you patch your way past that, it complains about not finding a native method, see http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4873 And it doesn't show up in Firefox's about:plugins by default, see http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4860 Can anyone shed some light on these, especially bug 4143?

msys on wine - partial success
by Dan Kegel March 19, 2006

March 19, 2006

Last year, I poked at using msys under wine: http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-devel/2004/04/0149.html but didn't follow up on the hint that wineconsole would help. Finally got around to it. Sure enough, you can run msys's sh.exe in a wineconsole! It's ugly and can't seem to run configure scripts yet, but it does run simple shell scripts and interactive commands like cd, pwd, and ls. Sort of. Here's what I tried: Installing http://easynews.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/mingw/MSYS-1.0.10.exe created c:\msys\1.0. Looking in that directory, I saw a script MSYS.BAT that one uses to start a shell. Rather than figuring out how to invoke that batch file in Wine, I read it, saw that it invoked sh as "sh --login -i", and wrote a little shell script that did something similar: wineconsole ~/.wine/drive_c/msys/1.0/bin/sh.exe --login -i This had problems with the path -- it couldn't find msys's external commands. Running "echo $PATH" showed that it defaulted to including /mingw/bin, so I cheated and added a symlink: ln -s ~/.wine/drive_c/msys/1.0 ~/.wine/drive_c/mingw That worked; I can now use msys's external commands in the msys sh. I probably should have modified the PATH, but that was hard to script. The ugly part is, when you give any command, the first thing that happens is a pair of warnings: sh: fork: No such file or directory sh: child setpgid (-45 to -50): Invalid argument And if you try to run mauve's configure script. it stops after the second statement. It seems that anything involving subshells or eval confuses it greatly. Also, if you're not very careful with the first command you type, it gets into a bad state where it ignores half the keys you type, or something. All in all not very healthy, but that's not too surprising for a first try. - Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv

PATCH: GetDevCaps() bitdepth flag
by pagefault March 18, 2006

March 18, 2006

Hi there, I work on ZSNES and I was trying to get it working under wine and I ran into a small bug when running under a 32 bit desktop. This fixed a bug in the DeviceGetCaps() function used to return the current bitdepth of the desktop. It is my understanding that X11 returns "24" as the bitdepth while running a 32 bit framebuffer. I have seen in the code where it does change the 24 to 32, but I have discovered a spot where this has been missed. The following is the changes I made, it simply returns 32 if the user has a 24 bit desktop. I could also post code which exposes this bug if needed. *** dlls/x11drv/init.c 2006-03-17 13:05:59.000000000 -0500 --- dlls/x11drv/init.diff 2006-03-17 12:18:05.000000000 -0500 *************** *** 190,196 **** case VERTRES: return screen_height; case BITSPIXEL: ! return screen_depth; case PLANES: return 1; case NUMBRUSHES: --- 190,196 ---- case VERTRES: return screen_height; case BITSPIXEL: ! return (screen_depth == 24) ? 32 : screen_depth; case PLANES: return 1; case NUMBRUSHES: Thanks.

Problem with virtual memory rlimits

Hi, I am having a problem with virtual ulimits/rlimits. If you limit the virtual memory size using "ulimit -v 1400000" for instance, wine will only crash. The problem is, that VIRTUAL_alloc_teb() tries to allocate a memory area within the acceptable userspace ... but it does so much mmap()s that it runs out of available mmap space before. I was only able to reproduce this on AMD64 machines up to now, which pass out memory starting from 0xf7fffffff somewhere. Any clue how to solve this? Ciao, Marcus

A few apps Munich was interested in
by Dan Kegel March 17, 2006

March 17, 2006

I've been trying to figure out why Munich doesn't like Wine for some time. Here's what I've learned: In 2004 six apps were briefly tested by ITOMIG under both plain Wine and Crossover Office 3.0.1 as part of initial studies for the Munich migration to Linux. The test results aren't especially important (wine has progressed since then), but it's interesting to know which apps were tested. Here's a list of the apps, along with links to related Wine bugs. SPSS11 - statistics http://spss.com (free trial!) Bugs: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3038 (multiple problems) http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2953 (Sun's JVM crashes on trivial app, fixed?) http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4860 (Sun's JVM doesn't work for applet, not really related, but an indication that java isn't happy) Keeptool5-Hora - Entity Relationship diagrammer, SQL debugger http://keeptool.com/de/keeptool_hora.php (free trial!) Bugs: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4801 (app locks up on some systems?) http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4802 (Oracle client library won't install) Frontpage2000 - Microsoft Office 2000's html editor Mephisto - a specialized app built using MS Access Darwin - a specialized app used in tourism offices; needs a dongle (For more info, contact stefan.munz at itomig.de.)

Well we get the ascent from the height of the Aring glyph. As far as I can tell this is 11 in fontforge.

getwinegit.sh 0.3 released!
by Christian Lachner March 16, 2006

March 16, 2006

Weehaa, my getwinegit.sh-script now reached a next major version-step! It's not perfect but it should do it's job very smoothly. Here's, what has changed: 0.3_Yea, new features and some fixes ;) - Mode 4: installs an already compiled source - fixed a bug when mode was 3 and the target-dir was _not_ found - Now uses PID-Files to ensure, that getwinegit.sh does not run twice - very small enhancements in logger - Logfile is now stored at /var/log/ as default - small stuff I don't remember... again... - Granatenstark, Hoschi! ;) (who of you german speakings know bill and ted?) This release is meant to be a stable-version. IF there are bugs, then post them to wine-users. Questions? PLEASE read the readme-file and if you really can't sort things out, post to wine-users. Ok, that's it for now. greets, chris

My two cents about winetools and the suggestions I read in Issue 308
by Philip V. Neves March 16, 2006

March 16, 2006

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.

May be a bad idea to have Winetools in the next SUSE release
by Jan Zerebecki March 16, 2006

March 16, 2006

Hi. For Andreas Jaeger: I CCed you, because you said on http://en.opensuse.org/Wishlist_Packages_that_are_already_there that Winetools got included for the next SUSE release. I hope you are the correct person to talk to or at least can forward this to someone who is. The following might be usefull information for you: I think a quote from http://www.winehq.org/site/download somewhat sums up the cencus on this list regarding Winetools: "WineTools [is] only recommended if installation or operability of Windows software failed on pure Wine. Since WineTools radically alters your Wine configuration please do not report bugs in programs with WineTools installed. Instead contact the author of WineTools Joachim von Thadden." Some other facts: Winetools is only sporadically updated for new versions of Wine (as http://www.von-thadden.de/Joachim/WineTools/ indicates; this site also contains some warnings regarding the support status). Winetools radically alters some vital Wine settings and thus makes many other apps fail. This leads to many users asking for help in #winehq on freenode. But nobody there wants to support winetools and thus can only suggest them to remove their .wine and redo it without winetools (which usually makes it work). Currently no Winetools developer works closely with the Wine developers to correct problems of interaction between Winetools and Wine. IMHO it would be best to either not include Winetools in a distribution or find a more active developer for it who is willing to support Winetools and cooperate with Wine developers. Or at least put up a big warning where it is read by a user that installs Winetools through the distributions package management. Jan

More dogfood tests
by Segin March 16, 2006

March 16, 2006

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)

Vista compatibility page
by Mike Hearn March 15, 2006

March 15, 2006

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.

OLEAUT32: bug 4502 - request for comment before trying to fix
by Alex Villacís Lasso March 15, 2006

March 15, 2006

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

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.

Dogfood status
by Dan Kegel March 15, 2006

March 15, 2006

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

Updated DDraw over WineD3D patch
by Stefan Dösinger March 15, 2006

March 15, 2006

Hi, I've uploaded anothe update of my DDraw->WineD3D patch to http://stud4.tuwien.ac.at/~e0526822/. It fixes some refcounting issues and the D3D renderer of the Half-Life 1 Steam version works. It also takes the merged header patches into account ;) I am quite busy the next time, so I won't be able to do a lot ddraw development. I'll continue to send patches, but only header changes, no added functionality. I'll keep myself up to date and anser feedback mails, but I don't think I've the time to do intensive development. I expect I can continue in April. Have fun playing, Stefan

Free mirror for .deb APT repository (forwarded correspondance)
by Scott Ritchie March 15, 2006

March 15, 2006

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

Some Processor(s) specific environment variables
by Paul Vriens March 14, 2006

March 14, 2006

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.

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?

need advise with new open-source project

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.

wine and rpath
by Ivars Strazdins March 14, 2006

March 14, 2006

Hello all, recently introduced rpath sets rpath to $ORIGIN I wonder if $ORIGIN/../lib would not be more appropriate? Or is this something my build-system specific? $ORIGIN just does not work to me, I really need $ORIGIN/../lib, if --prefix is set to non-default, non /usr value. Thank you, Ivar

For sure our product doesn't need ordinal 319, ldap_create_vlv_control. His environment is NT 4.0 SP 6. I looked up the msdn, func ldap_create_vlv_control requires Windows Vista or Windows XP. So I figured the user must have installed some software that needs at least XP or Vista? >From http://source.winehq.org/source/ChangeLog, I found out you were the first person who implemented this function.

Re: wglMakeCurrent
by Wino Rojo March 13, 2006

March 13, 2006

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.

wglMakeCurrent
by Wino Rojo March 13, 2006

March 13, 2006

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?

Correct, wine will compile and run without a lot of features and never warn you that they don't exist. See this wiki page for an example of what your include/config.h file should probably look like: http://wiki.winehq.org/Recommended_Packages I just added the Fedora Core 5 and Ubuntu Dapper sections yesterday, and I believe that they are at least 95% accurate, although I might have missed one somewhere. If someone can add the package names required for a gentoo build (or possibly create and maintain wine-cvs packages with all of the necessary deps???), it would probably help out many users trying to compile from source.

ddraw design flaw
by Tomas Carnecky March 12, 2006

March 12, 2006

I have found a design flaw in ddraw and described it in my 'World of Warcraft 0.10 Public Test Real (PTR)' thread. Why has nobody adressed this issue? In my eyes it is a severe design flaw if an application can't unload ddraw.dll without side effects (especially if this side-effect is that all opengl/directx applications are unusable after that). So please, will someone explain me why nobody wants to fix this? It's nothing bad now, but if WoW still loads Survey.dll (and thus ddraw.dll) in the final public release many people will demand a fix. Very few people play on the PTR, but there are quite a lot who play WoW under wine.. and they will not be happy if they can't play anymore. tom

My guess why Munich doesn't like Wine
by Dan Kegel March 12, 2006

March 12, 2006

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. Say, where's the existing page describing our release criteria? - Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv

Oracle Express Client under Wine - install fails in advapi.CreateService
by Dan Kegel March 12, 2006

March 12, 2006

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

spss can't even install...
by Dan Kegel March 12, 2006

March 12, 2006

I heard that SPSS was one of the apps governments like (so they crunch statistics -- who knew? :-), so I tried running the free eval. It wouldn't even install. The problems were already described in http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4700 Looks like an msi problem, but there might be something more general wrong; all wine apps hang for about twenty seconds at a certain point during the install, which is pretty strange. - Dan p.s. one downside of using wine to run firefox as your main browser is it's a bit more dangerous to do the rm -rf ~/.wine needed to do a really clean install of a test app :-) so this test was done with a fairly cluttered fake wine directory. But it seems to match the results in the PR. -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv

Can't run DirectX games on x86_64 biarch Linux
by Christian Schneider March 11, 2006

March 11, 2006

Hi all. About half a year ago I replaced my old desktop by an AMD64 box and my previous x86 Linux from Scratch (LFS) installation by a x86_64 multilib LFS. And since then I'm not able to run any DirectX title anymore that used to work before. This is the way I usually compile wine (GCC 3.4.4): ./configure --prefix=/opt/wine-CVS20060307 \ --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib && make depend && make && su -c "make install" Here are some games that used to work on my old LFS, their behaviour and the error messages. I've also attached a short log of each game to this messages. All these logs have been recorded with the CVS version of wine from 2006/03/05. Age of Empires 2 starts up, I can hear sound. When I click on "Single Player", the game hangs with the following message: err:seh:setup_exception stack overflow 24 bytes in thread 0009 eip 55726262 esp 55ca0fe8 stack 0x55ca1000-0x55db0000 Backgammon Pro is an older (7 years or so) backgammon game, quite simple and 2D, but uses DirectDraw. It crashes at startup: err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x5574d040 "directory.c: dir_section" wait timed out in thread 000b, blocked by 000c, retrying (60 sec) err:seh:raise_exception Unhandled exception code c0000194 flags 0 addr 0x55701230 Diablo 2 VidTest (D2VidTest.exe) runs fine and suggests Direct3D for rendering. When I click on the ok-button to quit, it keeps hanging: err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x6ffa0730 "?" wait timed out in thread 0009, blocked by 000a, retrying (60 sec) Diablo 2 crashes at startup after some time: err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x5574d6c0 "virtual.c: csVirtual" wait timed out in thread 0010, blocked by 0000, retrying (60 sec) err:seh:raise_exception Unhandled exception code c0000194 flags 0 addr 0x55701230 Half-Life crashes at startup: err:seh:setup_exception nested exception on signal stack in thread 0009 eip 55725f43 esp 55589c90 stack 0x55ca1000-0x55db0000 Monkey Island 4 (OpenGL-mode) crashes at startup: err:seh:setup_exception stack overflow 240 bytes in thread 0009 eip 557013e6 esp 55ca0f10 stack 0x55ca1000-0x55db0000 StarCraft starts to the title menu, but clicking on "Single Player" crashes it: err:seh:setup_exception stack overflow 276 bytes in thread 0009 eip 557013e6 esp 55ca0eec stack 0x55ca1000-0x55db0000 WarCraft 3 (OpenGL-mode) doesn't show up anything, just hangs silently. As you can see, the most common errors are err:seh:setup_exception and err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection. I've also done some more tests with other games like Revolt, Anno 1503, Half-Life 2, and the errors all look alike. I have tried the following things to solve the problem: * Deleted my ~/.wine, over and over again ;-) * Compiled wine without any optimization flags * Compiled wine on a x86 Debian box and copied the installation over * Copied my ~/.wine to that Debian box, where most of the games run fine * Tried different wine versions, starting with pre-0.9 versions, ending with the latest CVS version * Used winetools to setup an environment with many native DLLs. Installation of most of the software including IE worked fine, but did not help though. * Searched this mailing list archive and the web for similar errors Something is definitely going wrong with this. Anybody an idea? I would appreciate any help. Cheers, Christian Schneider

DDraw->WineD3D refcounting hack
by Stefan Dösinger March 10, 2006

March 10, 2006

Hello, I have a a question regarding some code that might be rejected by Alexandre when I submit it. The problem is that I have to do an refcount hack in my new ddraw code to destroy textures properly. I CC this mail to AJ because it's him who has the last word ;) WineD3D and Direct3D7 have different ideas about handling mipmap textures. In d3d7 they are complex surfaces - a bunch of surfaces with a root and sublevels. All surfaces in the compound have their own refcount, but they are all destroyed when the root is destroyed. In WineD3D there's the texture as a container, and the surfaces in the container have their refcount linked to the container(See the patch H. Verbeet sent a few days ago). In d3d7 the application destroys the first surface to release the whole texture. My first idea was to Release the WineD3DTexture. It would then call the Release method of all the sublevel ddraw surfaces, which would destroy them. This works for a correctly written application, but applications call GetAttachedSurface for the sublevels, which addrefs, and many do not Release the sublevels after GetAttachedSurface(). This leaves the sublevel surfaces with a refcount of 2 or more when the root is destroyed. To make sure that they are destroyed, I set their refcount to 1 when the root is destroyed. When the last reference to the WineD3D Texture is released, wineD3D will destroy the sublevel surfaces. Is such a thing acceptable for Wine? Does anyone have a better solution? If you need some code to look at, I'll upload an updated patch to my homepage later. Thanks, Stefan

Any problems with this patch? I have not received any additional comments. And it does fix at least two games in question (see bug reports). And I have not seen any side-affects from it either.

Anything wrong with this patch? According to MSDN ChoosePixelFormat should pick closest mode, but not fail.
