[Bug 9517] New: VB 6 Combo box Won't Drop Down

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9517

Summary: VB 6 Combo box Won't Drop Down
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.44.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P1
         Component: wine-comctl32
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Created an attachment (id=7881)
 --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=7881)
Shows The application we run.  Combo Boxes containing 3rd are not actionable.

We have a custom Visual Basic application which has been working very well
until we upgraded to wine 0.9.44.

suddenly the combo box drop down functionality stopped working.  That is to
say, when we click the downward pointing triangle, the drop down does not
appear.

I downgraded to 0.9.43 and the functionality was restored.

Hi Joe, 
can you post a trivial example VB6 project with source and executable
showing the problem?
Thanks...

Please run a regression test:

Not a blocker.

I observed the same symptom with e-sword 7.8.5.  I began a regression test (I
am a novice at this), but ran into a version that would not build.  The 
results so far are as follows:

rhb@linuxdualboot:~/wine-git$ ./wine --version
wine-0.9.43-g44e9839
rhb@linuxdualboot:~/wine-git$ ./wine ../.wine/drive_c/progs/e-Sword.exe

works correctly

rhb@linuxdualboot:~/wine-git$ ./wine --version
wine-0.9.43-g9783ce3
rhb@linuxdualboot:~/wine-git$ ./wine ../.wine/drive_c/progs/e-Sword.exe

fails

I expect I can figure out how to find a nearby version that builds ok and pin
it down some more.

Regression test was incomplete because opengl_ext.c failed to compile over a
number of commits.

In version wine-0.9.43-gd644242, the combo boxes showed the drop-down list
successfully.  The combo boxes failed to drop down on Version
wine-0.9.43-g0dde222.  The next commit after version wine-0.9.43-gd644242
introduced opengl changes which do not compile on my machine.

If I made another branch in which I either eliminated the first opengl patch or
made the second patch immediately after the first, I should be able to build
intermediate versions and find the bad commit.  Unfortunately, I don't know how
to do that yet.

Combo boxes were ok up to this version:

commit d64424216946b8cd9f5e9488db4a456ad805f294

The next versions, beginning here, would not build on my machine:

commit c9d4aec1ae39c3971ebfdc066cd793cffae9a935
Author: Roderick Colenbrander 
Date:   Fri Aug 17 19:22:12 2007 +0200

opengl32: Fix some gl type bugs.

Beginning with this version, it builds but combo boxes do not display their
list:

commit 0dde222bc574f3c0ea31cd63e5896dd5bb1056b8
Author: Roderick Colenbrander 
Date:   Mon Aug 20 18:04:40 2007 +0200

opengl32: Don't use 64bit gl types.

You need the parent/child commit. Find the commit you want to build either
right before or after here:
http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/

And note the parent (patch before) or child (patch after). When you have the
patch you want to test, do:
$ git reset --hard commit_id
To reset git to that patch. Then build/test.

Thanks, guys.  e-sword now shows its combo lists in 0.9.45.  If possible, would
like to verify whether .45 works for bug reporter.  If so, this bug is now

*****  Fixed in 0.9.45  ******

I confirm our Visual Basic Application's Combo Boxes now again work properly
using 0.9.45.  I apologize for not doing the regression test, but now at least
I've seen the instructions.

Thanks!
