Either the info is needed and it should be here, or it's not needed and it should be removed completely. Commenting it out is only creating confusion. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

Crashes due to OGL
by Robert Lunnon June 20, 2005

June 20, 2005

I see the following X error (After fixing a bug in utah GLX) trace:ddraw:initialize enabling DirectDraw HAL trace:ddraw:d3ddevice_init_at_startup Initializing GL... @@Created GLX Context.. X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 143 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_GLXCreateContext) Value in failed request: 0x21 Serial number of failed request: 7282 Current serial number in output stream: 7283 send_thread_signal 15 According to my GL log this request looks for visual 33 (IE vid=33) this is a non GL visual since utah GLX is allocating visuals 55 up on my system. I don't exactly know why wine should be trying to Create a GL context from a non GL visual but there you are... Bob

Wine's Registry
by James Liggett June 20, 2005

June 20, 2005

Hi Brad, I've been following you discussion about wine's registry format, and I find it interesting. I gave it some thought, I have have an idea. Have you thought about using XML as a potential format? Since the registry is a non-relational tree database, this seems to fit quite well. Plus, there's a few libraries that would do the dirty work for us (libxml, expat, many others, name your pick). It could even be possible to modularize the registry using technologies like XInclude or XLink. Just thought I'd offer my two cents. Regards, James Liggett

Re: Documenting debug messages (was: wine/dlls/x11drv x11drv_main.c x11drv.h palette.c)
by Dustin Navea June 19, 2005

June 19, 2005

You are right, it is completely different, but I was just stating that I think it might be something to consider, just so that we non-developers have some clue about what different errors mean.. I, for one, would like to know what the error message in my original reply means. And having some sort of documentation on that exact error message would save everyone some time from having to close reports that are already known, as well as the advantage of not having to answer questions about that. Basically answer the question once for me, and then people can just search (using their browsers' find function) for that exact error on whatever page it gets put on, whether wiki or my own personal site. Perhaps, though, instead of asking people who contribute code and add an err to update the documentation, we should setup a script that will track cvs commit emails (and the attached patch) and just ask alexandre to explain what would cause the fixme/err/warn/etc that is in that patch (in the commit email of course).. I could probably rent a shell to run it, and have the script either update the doc itself, or have it email the explanation to me, and then update the pages myself whenever I have a chance... The first thing though would be to get the current debug messages documented somewhere, then worry about updating it. Of course, if I do go ahead and document it, I would leave the removed messages in there with a note saying "this has been removed as of (date), please update to the latest release, or latest CVS if there hasn't been a release since this was committed".. Of course if I dont have any support, then there's no sense in doing it, so I would only do this with the blessing of the other developers.

bit-blit ops
by cdr June 19, 2005

June 19, 2005

While testing my Win32 application under wine, I came to the conclusion that some bit-blit ops behave differently from when the same code is running under native Windowds. While the subject will be researched further, as a stop-gap measure I have a need to detect - from within my application - that it is running under wine. What is the correct way - if any - to perform such test? tia, crd

Is it ok to put that one in winternl.h ? An explanatory comment would be in order, I think. It's not a good idea to "invent" stuff and pretend it's been there all the time... Andreas Mohr

Direct Sound freezes. I'd like to help fix them...
by Brian Gunlogson June 18, 2005

June 18, 2005

Baldurs Gate 2: Shadows of amn, locks up when many sounds are played at once. Like during intense battles. I am positive it is related to direct sound. Because when I disable direct sound in the WINE source (by stubbing out the functions) the game runs fine. The last 5 TRACE()s before the game freezes: 000b:trace:dsound:DSOUND_MixerVol left = 3a59, right = 3dd1 000b:trace:dsound:DSOUND_MixInBuffer (0x4fa720f8,9416,34684) 000b:trace:dsound:DSOUND_tmpbuffer (0x40417778,-4) 000b:trace:dsound:DSOUND_MixInBuffer MixInBuffer (0x4fa720f8) len = -4, dest = 9416 000b:trace:dsound:DSOUND_MixerNorm (0x4fa720f8, 0x52a2d43e, 0x4f9e0dc0), buf_mixpos=26190 WINEDEBUG="trace+dsound,warn+all,fixme+all,+tid" I am under the assumption that direct sound runs in a seperate thread? And maybe there is some buffer overflow/corruption/colision that leads to an infinite loop or even a deadlock (doesn't seem like a deadlock)? What would you do next?

Since they include it on their office cd's, I can safely presume it is perfectly legal to install riched20.dll, so it doesn't look like there could be a legal issue.
