WINE flag
by KK singh April 30, 2003

April 30, 2003

hi, I have a win32 application that plays some hashing tricks with HWND while running on win98 and uses the fact that on win98 HWND is always 16bit. This application is crashing on wine configured as win98 because HWND is something bigger than 16bit on wine. Now Can I Check from inside my application code, whether the application is running on linux or win98 If yes then I might be able to avoid those hashing tricks and solve the crash Regards kks __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

All these unions are ugly IMO, it would be better to use an intermediate pointer instead, something like: void *ptr; ISomething *iface; IUnknown_QueryInterface(...,&ptr); iface = ptr; -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

This is pretty cool. I've added you to the Fun page: http://63.138.153.104/wine/Wine-Fun.html#source Few questions: * Do you build on Windows? * Could we run bcc in Wine on Linux to build on Linux using bcc? * How far do you get? Do you actually get an executable? * Does it run? * What are the steps you need to take? A concise list of instructions would be nice :) I can post it on the Fun page, so other can play with it was well. -- Dimi.

Hi sounds like a memory leak in the code sould be addressed to wine-devel(a)winehq.com and you should probably open a bug on this ..... wine-devel, can someone comment/help on that?

Re: slovene keyboard without dead keys

I'm strongly against fixing problems with new XFree86 4.3.0 this way and polluting x11drv with lots of similar keyboard layouts. A way to solve your problem is to use something like this in your XF86Config: Option "XkbLayout" "us,si" Option "XkbOptions" "grp:ctrl_shift_toggle" I.e. explicitly add "us" layout as the first language group and use Ctrl+Shift to switch between base and alternate keyboard layouts. -- Dmitry.

Hallo, running MS Word 2000 with builtin dlls doesn't allow to write files, because of at least StorageImpl_Commit and WriteFmtUserTypeStg still stubs? Does Crosover Office still require the native OLE dlls or has it some implementation?

Ah OK. Minor problem. :-( Why can't they make Qt/Win32 GPL:ed as well with the exception of the drawing primitives that have to become LGPL:ed. They released Qt/X11 under the GPL, since the GPL according to their interpretation will protect them from "free commercial use". Why not release Qt/Win32 under the GPL as well? > Bah.
