Question on exposing non-windows functions from dlls...
by Mike Bond May 22, 2001

May 22, 2001

I just submitted a patch to wine-patches that provides the implementation of spawnl and spawnlp. I had been hoping to implement execl and execlp as well but found that the underlying functionality that I would need is not exposed outside scheduler/process.c. My question is what guidelines are there, if any, are there to exposing non-win functions, such as exec_wine_binary in scheduler/process.c? Also, from just a cursory glance at exec_wine_binary that I may need to wrap it to do some of the work that fork_and_exec and PROCESS_Create are doing, such as calling DOSFS_GetFullName. I'm not sure what, if anything, the server would need to know about this. -- TTFN MikeB

Then we cannot use the current code on NetBSD, otherwise we'll be eating 100% CPU as soon as an fd becomes -1. You'll probably need to do a poll() wrapper that removes the invalid fds before calling the real poll. Or you could ask the NetBSD folks to fix their implementation. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

problem starting winword 97SR2
by Heiko Nardmann May 22, 2001

May 22, 2001

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 When starting WinWord I get a dialog saying that either I have not enough work space or memory space. The program exits then. So after playing with the debug options I found out that this happens after a key named "Office.SharedMemory.1" is accessed inside the registry. Can someone tell me what to do to make word no longer complain? BTW: I use wine 20010112 since the last snapshot 20010418 does not work on my machine (unhandled exception).

If the app handles >WM_NCCALCSIZE we shouldn't try to bypass it. But does Windows send this message in this case ? From what I can see in the traces, I don't think so. Maybe Maciek could look at the behaviour of his app under Windows. Or I could download it and try to solve the problem myself (I'd better not :-/) Gerard

You know, glibc would also have such an interface if you used the -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compilation option. Wouldn't it be simpler to unify the 64-bit interface code by using that?

Anybody know int-31?
by Bob Goodwin May 21, 2001

May 21, 2001

I want to run an application that requires win95 but relys heavily on DOS interupt functions. Specifically it requires interupt 31 which is just a stub in Wine. It appears (from R.B.'s list) that there is no limit on calls to interupt_31-AX=0305 (request the address of (?:the:a) save/restore handler.) That implies more than one thread could have a save/restore pointer. When calling the save/restore handler function, the only parameter passed is a byte in AL to indicate whether to save the current context or restore a saved context. My question is, are there multiple copies of the save/restore function or at least multiple entry points? It seems that this would be the only way of having multiple unique context saves. It would be differrent if a unique `handle' was returned by int_31 instead of a call address. If only one context can be stored at a time, do I need a spin-lock within the save/restore function to keep other applications holding until their turn? Thanks. Bob Goodwin

Re: Networking with Mandrake 8.0 and SuSE 7.1
by Steve Fox May 21, 2001

May 21, 2001

This weekend I upgraded to Mandrake's 2.4.4 kernel from Cooker (since it fixed both my mouse and token ring) and suddenly this problem has gone away (using Notes 5.0.7 and wine-20010305). I'm still planning to go through Mandrake's 2.2.19 SRPM and find which patch messes things up (I can't use a Linus-only kernel because I need reiserfs). I will post again once I have narrowed down the list of suspects. I'm guessing it has to be a common patch since SuSE seems to have the same symptoms.
