Wineserver crash in inotify code

by Dan Kegel

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11746 may explain a few mysterious wineserver crashes I saw a few weeks ago. Anyone feel like diving in to this one? It's probably a rat's nest of twisty linked lists, and a node isn't getting removed properly from all the lists it's in when it's freed, or something.

According to http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776779(VS.85).aspx comctl32 version 6 is nonredistributable, which means it might be a bit of a challenge to find a free download from microsoft.com that offers it. - Dan

Thank you for update. I also notice that the version of comctl32 and gdiplus that installed from winetricks are quite old. I have to manually copy those files from my win-xp to make my application work. Could you also consider revise them?

With regard to the other things in this thread, if the sysInternals group at Microsoft is willing to share the interface between their application and driver, wine could easily implement it (ultimately far more secure than the Windows solution), then the tools could run on wine. Unless you're expecting filemon running in wine to magically start showing all file access even from applications not using the Win32 API. The goal should not be to run Windows kernel drivers in Linux kernel mode, that's insanity, but to implement the userspace/kernel interface API with Linux device drivers behind. Yes, that means people will be limited to hardware supported by Linux, but those drivers have far better minimum reliability than even the Windows ones carrying that joke called WHQL certification.

New winetricks 20080226: adds dotnet11 verb

by Dan Kegel

In honor of .net 1.1 installing on today's git, here's a version of winetricks that knows how to grab and run the installer. Amusingly, I noticed that there are dozens of scripts out there that do this... it seems to be not uncommon in the windows world. As always, winetricks is at http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks and its source repository is at http://winezeug.googlecode.com BTW if anybody has any other small whiny things that almost but not quite fit in winehq, I'd be happy to consider hosting them in the winezeug repository. - Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv

Re: Help me(Ajudem-me)C compiler cannot create executables

by Ben Hodgetts

In addition to what Rico said, this is the wrong forum for this, this is for Wine development, not user troubleshooting.

It looks like that there is missing a package ...glibc-devel.

.net 1.1 installs now!

by Dan Kegel

Hey, http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11678 is fixed, and VCToolkitSetup.exe now installs for me! Still more to do before .net 1.1 apps run, see http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11742 And there are a few ugly looking nonfatal problems running the .net 1.1 installer, but they can wait...
