Hi Mike, > Dumping the headers is necessary for stupid installers that map DLL files > manually and rummage around in the headers to figure out versions and > stuff ... simply having an empty file isn't enough for all of them I'm > afraid :( This isn't enough for new installers, either :( I have an MSI-based InstallShield installer that's looking for shdocvw.dll to see if IE6 is installed. (It isn't, but that's how it's looking for it.) Trouble is, how would this work with the native/builtin thing? Right now all our builtins don't live in the system directory, so we can always override whatever native dll happens to get dropped there. If we put a little stub PE header in there, what's to stop an installer from overwriting it? Or, would this cause a problem? --Juan __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Wine threads and TRY/CATCH macros and DCE threads and TRY/CATCH macros
by Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton Jan. 20, 2005

Jan. 20, 2005

hi, as you may be aware, dce threads is posix draft 4 threads and FreeDCE has an emulation library kindly made up-to-date to successfully run even on NPTL on x86 and AMD64, courtesy of loic. http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/freedce/dcethreads/ it is my understanding / guess that microsoft, in their adoption of DCE 1.0 some fifteen years ago for NT 3.1, ported DCE threads to Win32 [hence, you have all those lovely TRY CATCH RAISE macros in all the lovely MSVC++ programs, whoopeee] so i was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of some Wine source code - testing, implementation, macros etc. that would allow me to vaguely confirm whether my suspicions are correct. the first hypothesis i want to test is this: namely, that Wine applications would run _better_ [read, "more correctly"] by using dcethreads than by using its present implementation of Win32 threads. the _other_ hypothesis i want to test is this: namely, that FreeDCE applications would be more "palatable" in today's modern environment if compiled with Wine's threading code! according to loic, who is an expert on the different thread models, the thing is that certain syscalls are not interruptable / cancellable in Posix Draft 4 threads and in NPTL they are. this CHANGES the behaviour of any programs using the wrong threading library in subtle ways. thus, certain applications suddenly become unreliable where they were previously fine. etc. l. p.s. i don't claim to know all the answers, nor all the questions. -- -- <a href="http://lkcl.net">http://lkcl.net</a> --

Re: Fwd: Re: Wine builtin mscms.dll

A simple DLL override in > .wine/config does not seem to do the job (using wine-20041210). Well, you have to realize that development on mscms in Wine has only been started a couple of months ago. My estimate is that it's now about 20% done and still missing basic functionality. And I have only weekends to spend time on it ;( So your best bet at this time is a native mscms. > (It works with a native mscms.dll file copied to the windows/system directory, > but with a specific application, makes it 5 times slower). The 5 times slow down you're seeing is not normal. Maybe you can investigate the problem a little more and report to the Wine development list at wine-devel(a)winehq.org? -Hans

Native comctl32.dll and native commctrl.dll
by Dripple Jan. 20, 2005

Jan. 20, 2005

Hi all, I'm a newbie in wine using and wine developpement. I just need information about comctl32.dll and commctrl.dll. I'm trying to have this app (http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=1485&versionId=2451) working. In fact, it works. But only using native comctl32.dll, which requires native commctrl.dll. Can anybody explain me what's missing in buitlin comctl32.dll and/or commctrl.dll ? Is it planned to fix commctrl.dll, to avoid piracy ? Thanks. Dripple

*This script uses GD 1 instead of GD 2 functions so that it'll work on the live server* Here is a script that will recreate missing thumbnails and apply the watermarking. Please configure the script by modifying the first lines and don't forget to create the thumbnail directories. Other than that everything should be fine. Usage: 1)chmod u+x ./thumbs.php 2)edit clean.php to set up the database connection and other settings (first lines) 3)./thumbs.php
