Summary: CRLF and ^Z handling bad in fread, causes xilinx modelsim mxe III startup to fail Product: Wine Version: 0.9.46. Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: NEW Keywords: download, patch Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: wine-msvcrt AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
In http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-users/2007-September/027833.html and http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-users/2007-October/027855.html a user reports that Xilinx Modelsim MXE III dies on startup with an apparant flexlm problem, but it really turns out to be a bug in our msvcrt's fread's crlf and control-Z handling, and the app starts ok with native msvcrt.
There was an earlier patch that tried to solve some of this stuff, http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2006-August/050055.html but it didn't have a conformance test, and was not correct.
Here's a patch that solves the modelsim problem, comes with a conformance test, and is mostly correct. (It doesn't handle CR LF's that span buffers, but that's hard, and this app doesn't happen to require that.)
