I haven’t tried icc myself, but I guess it should work for 32 bit Wine just as it did in 2008. Note that a 64 bit Wine is only useful for running 64 bit Windows applications. It won’t magically run 32 bit applications with 64 bit only Linux libs. The most common way to use a 64 bit wine is together with a 32 bit build to form a WoW64 environment that runs both 32 bit and 64 bit windows apps.

Not recently... but, I've built Firefox with ICC on both Mac and Linux (years ago) - the performance gains were huge in both cases. Without even benchmarking, i would have been able to tell you which build was which, in a 'blind test'... Benchmarks (for web/browsers) got higher grades with ICC too, over gcc... but that was (like i said) a few years ago. ..and I've built Linux with ICC too. (again, not recently - circa 2.6.31/.32 LinuxDNA era) What i have been benchmarking recently is Wine; benchmarks under different builds with different levels of patching (wine-rt / other out-of-tree patches / performance hacks), optimization of particular components/dlls, etc), just to see how much performance i could squeeze out of Wine. ~ So while i was at it -> i thought i might like to do a compiler Test; GCC Vs. ICC (obviously not gonna happen, for now.). But Austin, if you are interested in playing with Intel XE compiler (or their entire suite), as long as its for personal use/non-commercial - you can get a free copy (of any of their tools) to play with; http://software.intel.com/en-us/non-commercial-software-development cheerz Jordan

Re: Launchpad project for Wine

by Scott Ritchie

I "own" the project in launchpad. I fixed the typo. Thank you. The Wine project doesn't have bugs in launchpad, instead you file them either upstream (winehq) or against an Ubuntu Wine package. The latter is preferred if it's something ubuntu-specific. I don't know about recovering your launchpad account if it no longer exists.

Wine + ICC (Intel XE Compiler)

by jordan

Hey List, I've been playing around with ICC and i am curious if anyone has instructions and/or Patches for building Wine using Intel's XE Compiler?? ...I'm using the latest version; icc version 14.0.1 (gcc version 4.8.0 compatibility) I've noticed older link on winehq; http://wiki.winehq.org/icc ... It seems he was able to get wine32 to build on x86_64, but obviously, 2008 was a little early for wine64 / ICC tests... Currently, it doesn't get to far through configure; checking for gcc... icc checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking for suffix of executables... checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether icc accepts -g... yes checking for icc option to accept ISO C89... none needed checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... yes checking whether icpc accepts -g... yes checking for cpp... cpp checking whether icc supports __builtin_ms_va_list... no configure: error: You need gcc >= 4.4 to build Wine as 64-bit. (and then it terminates). ICC is setup properly on my machine(s), ie: i have used it to compile other packages. (mostly 64bit, but i did test 32bit, which worked fine too). Anyway, If anyone has any tips and/or patches they could share, I would be very grateful / interested. :) ... Jordan

Travel sponsorship for Wine to FOSDEM

by Jeremy White

Folks, I neglected to put this out there, but the Wine party fund is able to provide travel sponsorships for Wine contributors (where contributors is not limited to programmers, and can be fairly loosely defined). If you are interested in such a sponsorship, please write me privately. We could still use some novel presentations in our dev room; so if you want to get sponsored to come talk about Wine users or pitch the use of Wine on the lunar lander, I'd be delighted by the combination. Cheers, Jeremy
