Hello,
actually wine's gdiplus is a big work in progress so changed behaviour for apps that require gdiplus is expected. When stubs get partially or completely implemented, the program execution flow changes. Previously uncovered/skipped application code might be executed, resulting in unimplemented gdiplus APIs being called.
The bug is actually a dupe of http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10982 and technically not a regression for reasons I explained.
Appdb also gives a hint:
--- quote acad 2005 appdb entry --- with 1.1.0 + versions of wine you need also gdiplus as native, and it's not guaranteed that it works. So, better stay to 1.0 --- quote acad 2005 appdb entry ---
So 'sh winetricks gdiplus' should do it for the time being.
If you encounter unimplemented APIs, google the API name on winehq/buzgilla. If you find a bug which mentions the API, add a comment "app <name> also depends on this API", preventing duplicate reports. If the API is not mentioned, it's of course completely valid to open a new bug.
Regards
Hello
Before all, thanx for the answer :-) Second point, appdb maintainer is me :-) so, an auto-hint !
Third point... still don't understand WHY autocad installed in my older wineprefix still runs ok without requiring native gdiplus, even on latest git !
Ciao
