More DLL spec forwarding issues
by Shachar Shemesh Nov. 7, 2003

Nov. 7, 2003

Hi, I got no reponse for the previous issue I posted (where placing forwards in a spec file did not perform as expected). I have tried to create actual functions that perform the forwards. This works great when I use my own program. However, whem I try to use another program, it tries to call "GetProcAddress". Unfortunetly, there is no way to reimplement GetProcAddress in Wine, as the .spec.c file generated needs that function! This is a very problematic thing for me. I tried forwarding GetProcAddress to GetProcAddress_unicows, but that did not help either. I get linker error (function redefined). Please, can anyone help?

X11 resize event compression
by Mike Hearn Nov. 7, 2003

Nov. 7, 2003

Hi, When I resize windows using opaque resizing, the contents of the window take several seconds to "catch up" with the borders. It feels like X resize event compression isn't being done, so we rerender the window for every single motion of the border. Does anybody know if my hunch is correct or not ? I know modern toolkits are supposed to do this, but does Wine? thanks -mike

Help with forwarding .spec and DLL overrides for a new DLL
by Shachar Shemesh Nov. 7, 2003

Nov. 7, 2003

Hi list, I'm having trouble with my unicows.dll implementation. I can trace this problem down to forwarding entries not working, but I can't understand why. I am attaching the diffs for my current unicows patch (not working though it is). I'm trying to run it with a program I wrote. This program is the plain "Hello world" Visual Studio 6 produces when you ask for a Win32 application, with two changes. I changed the link order according to the instructions for using MSLU (http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/01/10/MSLU/default.aspx) so that the app will use unicows.dll on win98. The second is that I modified the LoadString and DrawText to specifically call LoadStringW and DrawTextW. The application is, otherwise, an ANSI application (only two Unicode functions called). The resulting app works ok on Windows 2000 and on Windows 98 (the later only when unicows.dll is in the same directory as the application - as it should). When trying to run the app on Wine with os=nt4, or with os=win98 and the native unicows.dll in the same directory as the app, everything works. So far, so good. Now comes the part things stop to work. First - I couldn't get my DLL overrides to take effect. I tried adding "UNICOWS.DLL"=b, but it wouldn't load my winelib dll over the standard one. I eventually created a symbolic link from a file called "unicows.dll" in the apps' dir to my unicows.dll.so file. That caused my dll to load. The second had to do with the forwarding call. I generated (using a small perl script) the spec file for the DLL. It forwards all Unicode calls to the relevant Unicode call. Strangely, when the entries for LoadStringW and DrawTextW were pointing to the corresponding calls in user32, the program wouldn't run correctly. When I replaced them with explicit loading of user32.dll and GetProcAddress, everything works (that's the way it's currently in the diff). This suggests, to me, that the spec file is incorrectly set up. Can anyone please point me to my mistake?

This depends, it can go from 15-20 minutes to over 4 hours. A company in Israel has built a 8000 Ghz (Not a typo, it's Ghz) processor, that may take it down to a few seconds.
