The ReadFile can be done from another process, and the pointer won't be valid there. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Hi Eric, How about returning a function pointer instead of an id? When the file handle is registered with the wine-server, we would also send function pointers for the read and write operations. This way we could have seperate implementations of ReadFile or WriteFile for different types of handles...

Using cvs from today of both wine and reaktivate. Never seen that one before, but it's IMHO rather a wine problem. Has anyone seen this before? Or, did you by any chance update some but not all X libraries? -- Malte Starostik PGP: 1024D/D2F3C787 [C138 2121 FAF3 410A 1C2A 27CD 5431 7745 D2F3 C787]

It may be better to have two modes, a simple console that returns an fd to ReadFile and no input records (and then ReadConsoleInput could generate them on the fly if necessary), and a complex console that supports all the features but that doesn't have an associated fd at all. IMO the current xterm-based console support is a ugly hack; we should do a proper Windows console using a normal Wine window with a message loop to retrieve input events. And usage of stdin/stdout should be limited to programs that don't need special console features, and should only support ReadFile/WriteFile. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

I'm not sure I understand you right; are you suggesting that get_handle_fd should return an fd from which you can read input records in the case of a console? It would seem preferable to have get_handle_fd simply fail with a special error code saying that the handle is a console, and then ReadFile can fall back to using ReadConsoleInput which doesn't require an fd at all. > - this type of feature would help in other areas too. For example, we > never check that Comm functions really get a Comm handle... Well, we check by the fact that we then do a serial ioctl on the fd, which will fail if it isn't serial. I'm not sure we need more checks. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Archive of overlapped serial I/O example code, experiences
by Dan Kegel Aug. 21, 2001

Aug. 21, 2001

For what it's worth, here is some example test code I wrote for win32 demoing overlapped serial I/O: http://www.alumni.caltech.edu/~dank/serio/serio.zip It might be of some use to people testing wine. I haven't tried it yet there. Also, http://www.alumni.caltech.edu/~dank/overlap.htm chronicles the problems many people have had with serial I/O under win95. The messages there get into interesting details of how people use overlapped serial I/O, and how serial I/O really behaves under various flavors of windows. Again, might be of some use, who knows. - Dan -- "I have seen the future, and it licks itself clean." -- Bucky Katt

ReadFile and other issues
by eric pouech Aug. 21, 2001

Aug. 21, 2001

while we're at talking about the ReadFile implementation with overlapped data, there's (an unrelated) point about ReadFile I'd like to discuss I've started looking at implementing proper console input in Wine (mainly the line mode editing). Apart from providing the functionnality, it would also allow to remove this unneeded code from the debugger the Win32 console input API is made of two layers 1/ the low level : each input event is stored into an INPUT_RECORD struct 2/ the high level which uses the low level events to make strings of them 1/ two functions are used: ReadConsoleInput(A|W) 2/ three functions are used: ReadFile and ReadConsole(A|W) the current implementation in Wine, makes the handle to the console input a file handle to the fd gotten from the console hence, the current implementation is broken in several ways - ReadFile is implemented as a raw read on the input fd, whereas it should be a higher level of function (forwarded from ReadFile to ReadConsole) - wait operations on handle are wrong: currently the handle is signaled as soon as a char is read (at the unix level) from the stdin fd, whereas it should be done at the level of the INPUT_RECORD queue to implement properly this (mainly the ability to forward ReadFile calls to ReadConsole for console handles), I'd like to do the following: - extend the get_handle_fd to also return an id corresponding to the type fd being used. As of today, handle / fd relationship mainly assumes that we can map a Windows operation on a handle onto a similar operation on a unix fd. The ReadFile/ReadConsoleInput doesn't fit in this category. - this type of feature would help in other areas too. For example, we never check that Comm functions really get a Comm handle... would such a mechanism be acceptable ? if so, should we do for every handle in the server, or just the ones we might convert into unix fd (file, consoles, pipes, sockets, "serials"...)

I've just done a cvs update and recompiled and now the icons come up in gray, if at all. Is this a known issue? Bill
