Tried to install Red Alert - Yuri's Revenge
by David.Goodenough＠DGA.co.uk Feb. 9, 2003

Feb. 9, 2003

and it failed. The installer said that comctl32.dll was too old, did I want a new one, so I said no. They it said that DirectX was a level 0 (well actually a long list of 00.00s), and asked if I wanted to install what looked like version 4 (although the docs with the CD say that it will install 8.0a). When I said no to that the installer quit. This was a Debian unstable system, which is using the latest Wine.deb. So how is it detecting the age of comctl32, and how should I convince it that the dll really is up to date, and do I need to install the front bits of DirectX in order to use the support that Wine is now increasingly providing, or should Wine be advertising its DirectX support differently. This is the first time I have tried to install a DirectX program on the machine, and I do not know quite how I should proceed. Thanks in advance David

Treeview Regression
by Drew "DanteAliegri" Ogle Feb. 9, 2003

Feb. 9, 2003

There has been a treeview regression, since at least 20030115, I assumed someone would take it up, but noone has. I will try to fix it, but a rather simple testcase ( ~200 lines of C ) is at http://open-socket.dyndns.org/~dante/treeview-testcase.tar.bz2 What appears to be happening, is when the dialog recieves a message that is WM_NOTIFY , it excpets the lparam to 1) be LPNMHDR, and lparam->code to be TVN_SELCHANGED. the lparam->code that wine appears to be returning is 0. -Dante

IDA regression again :-)
by Lionel Ulmer Feb. 9, 2003

Feb. 9, 2003

Hi all, Seems that with latest CVS, the ncurses driver 'added' a lot of regressions to IDA... The biggest gripe is that the mouse support is VERY flaky (I can click some times but once it stops working, it seems that I cannot do anymore with it). As I do not know exactly how to select stuff in the GUI using only the keyboard (which seems flaky too as the Backspace and Delete key seem not really to work), I am a bit stuck. How could one help debug this relatively crucial application to help in some D3D / OpenGL investigations ? Lionel PS: we REALLY should be able to use the old slow as hell graphical driver as a fallback.... -- Lionel Ulmer - http://www.bbrox.org/

Good source of test case source?
by Dan Kegel Feb. 9, 2003

Feb. 9, 2003

Source code downloaded from any *.microsoft.com server is copyright Microsoft, and they would not take kindly to us using it in our regression test suite, I'm sure. I hope I speak for everyone here when I say it seems important to carefully obey the letter of the law when it comes to avoiding copyright issues that might taint our efforts. So where should a developer go to find good code snippets when writing Wine regression or compliance tests, without running afoul of copyright laws? One possibility is http://www.codeproject.com. Their submission page, http://www.codeproject.com/info/submit.asp, quite clearly states: "If you post to CodeProject then you retain copyright of your article and code. You also give CodeProject permission to use it in a fair manner and also permit all developers to freely use the code in their own applications. ... You are more than welcome to submit code that is already published at another site, provided you own the copyright on that article, and provided you have not given the other site exclusive rights to your article." That sounds like code at CodeProject is fair game. Do other (smarter) people agree? I ask, of course, because I'd like to make sure it'll be ok to submit a testcase based partly on CodeProject code. Thanks, Dan -- Dan Kegel http://www.kegel.com http://counter.li.org/cgi-bin/runscript/display-person.cgi?user=78045

Error installing iKernel.exe: (0x1400)
by Dan Kegel Feb. 9, 2003

Feb. 9, 2003

This is something I see frequently. Here's my little FAQ about it: When running an Installshield 6 installer: If you get the error "Error installing iKernel.exe: (0x1400)" at any point, it's probably because there are leftover processes from a previous try. You can verify this with the command $ ps augxw | grep wine If that command shows old copies of wine running your setup, you need to kill them before you can run the setup program. If there are no other Wine programs running, you can kill them all with the command $ killall wine If you're also running Wine programs you care about, you'll have to kill off the old Setup instances one by one using kill and the individual PIDs (or perhaps Wine's spiffy Task Manager, which doesn't exist yet). Then repeat the ps to make sure the old wines are gone. - Dan -- Dan Kegel http://www.kegel.com http://counter.li.org/cgi-bin/runscript/display-person.cgi?user=78045

Iirc there was a vesion of FreeType that incorrectly swapped the meaning of matrix.xy and matrix.yx, but as I understand it this has now been corrected. Which version of FreeType have you been using? We could probably add a run time check to work around this bug if need be. Huw.

Under HKLM\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion\\FontSubstitutes something of the form "MS Sans Serif"="Microsoft Sans Serif" should work. Huw.

Hi, The problem with this code is that it won't work for rotated text. Also the line widths and positions should be obtained using from the OUTLINETEXTMETRICS structure. Huw.

Re: Fix module entry deallocation in MODULE_DecRefCount
by Warren_Baird＠cimmetry.com Feb. 8, 2003

Feb. 8, 2003

>the fix doesn't seem the right one... could you post a -debugmsg >+file,+module of what really happens here The places I've seen it happen are in parts of a large and complicated program - I'll see if I can find a simple test case that repros the problem and post a trace here. But I can give you more details on what I found happening... After calling LoadLibrary("foo") there were two entries for library foo in the MODULE_modref_list. When you unloaded the library the first entry found was removed, but the 2nd entry remained, but the memory behind it didn't exist any more. If you tried to load the library again, the loading code would find the entry in the modref list and try to reuse it, and immediately segfault... I seem to recall that the first entry had the correct path to the library, and the send entry had "C:\windows\system\foo.dll" or something like that... Note that I've only observed this on a sparc/solaris system - it may be due to a pecularity of the way libs are loaded there... If I can repro it with a simple enough case to generate a reasonably sized log, I'll post it here, hopefully tomorrow... Warren
