Joysiick under Wine
by David Hagood July 10, 2001

July 10, 2001

I've seen a couple of messages about getting USB joysticks working under Wine, but do regular (i.e. gameport) sticks work? I've confirmed that my stick is being read by Linux, and that it is reporting events correctly. Now, how do I get Wine to pass them along? I've confirmed: 1) that I have read/write permissions to /dev/js0 2) that Wine tries to read /dev/js0 3) that Wine indeed does read from /dev/js0, but that 4) Wine shortly thereafter closes /dev/js0, never to read it again. Do I need to have the X Window system joystick driver loaded? Or do I need to add something to the system.ini or .wine/config files. This is a Windowless install, under RH6.1, with 2.4.6, and a CVS pull of Wine from a few days ago. I'm trying to get HalfLife running under Wine. I have the GL working, I have sound working, but I am one of those strange fellows that likes to move with a stick, and look with a mouse. Are there any Windows/Wine tools that I can run to try to troubleshoot this?

If you know arguments are strings you can use 'str' instead of 'ptr' in the .spec file, and relay debugging will print strings ;) Also you can use the return value of debugstr_a(a) for string output.

Since the functions are needed both in user32 and shlwapi, they have to be implemented in user32 and forwarded from shlwapi to user32 (the alternative is to have two complete wsprintf implementations, which is a bit of a pain). I guess you could also rename the user32 ones, but this is not strictly necessary (and the current name has the advantage of following the C library naming of vsnprintf). -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

wv{sn,ns}printf[AW]
by Peter Hunnisett July 9, 2001

July 9, 2001

Hi, it appears that we have a bit of a hack in the wine code. Presently we export wvsnprintf[AW] from user32. - These two functions do not appear to be in the real user32.dll and the comments in the code seem to back it up. - Windows does have wvnsprintf[AW] (note the transposed "sn") exported from shlwapi.dll So my questions are: 1) Was the user32 a bit of a hack because those routines just weren't noticed or was it because of something from before shlwapi? 2) Can wvnsprintf be moved from user32 into shlwapi? This would cause user32 to have to import shlwapi (because wsprintfA and friends use it in their implementation) and I don't know if that's legal because user32 seems to only import gdi32 and kernel32. If not, what's the solution? Reimplement everything in user32 to not use wvnsprintf and move the implementation over or just keep the existing situation and rename wvnsprintf to wvnsprintf and forward the shlwapi calls to user32?

Re: Are these the ordinal names?

If > so, why does the SHLWAPI.240 name not seem to jive with the existing > implementation? If a name is specified, the ordinal is only a hint, so it's OK for it to be different. What this means is that in some version of shlwapi StrRetToStrW is at ordinal 240, but it can be at other ordinals in other versions since it is looked up by name. In our builtin version, ordinal 240 is something else (which is fine), and StrRetToStrW is not implemented at all (which is the cause of your problem). You can either implement it, or use the native shlwapi. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Sure, that's the main reason behind all the recent window management and messaging changes. So yes, it is being worked on. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

At that point everything returns to normal. The new hardware event handling does not yet attempt to merge mouse motion events, so this is probably the reason for the problem.

And I just tested it a few minutes ago and it still does not work (for me). I don't know where the data goes, but it does not appear to be written to a file anywhere. Actually, I think that is probably a good thing. In most cases, the print dialog should have a "Print to file" button. And if there is no way to specify a file name, then the ~/.wine/config entry "FILE:" = "foo.ps" will control where it is written, and in this case it will in fact be correctly written to the indicated file name.
