The severity description is not correct, it will eventually be fixed:
Thank you very much for clarification!
I tried to establish a constructive conversation per email but all I got was some more flames from Vitaliy (that he does not feel like answering "user questions", that I am simply not _allowed_(!) to even touch the severity combox and that I have an attitude problem).
There are several misconceptions:
1) I am (still) not a "user" of wine. Several years ago I switched my company to Linux. Some users could not live without MS-Office. I gave wine a test and it was unuseable. Therefore I bought CrossOver Office. After some weeks it turned out to be too buggy and we moved to a virtualized MS-Windows. At this point in time I put wine on my "promising-but-not-yet-ready" OSS watchlist. Then I tested almost every release and wrote bugreports. Ask wine bugzilla if you wish so.
2) If there is a clearly documented feature (like the severity level) and someone I have never heard of before and does not introduce oneself as an authority in a certain area tells me the opposite without any references I am not going to believe this person. It is like if a stranger runs into me on streat and tells me earth is flat...
3) Telling me that I have an attitude problem is not helpful at all. I know that developers have huge egos that tend to clash with others on every occasion. I am familiar with this situations because I am an OSS developer myself (just google my name). Here is the deal: If you continue this "we are the masters of the known universe and you are only part of the unwashed masses" wine will just vanish from my radar. You will lose a contributor. Your choice.
So, back to business:
Louis asked:
Could you test , and maybe we should change this to shell32 then
My question from Comment#6 is still unanswered. Does that mean that I have to copy some dll files from a Windows installation?
My question from Comment#8 is still unanswered. What are "native java programs" and how does that relate to JSmooth (a Windows application)?
