Bug ID: 36472 Summary: Application ArdourXchange will not run in Wine Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: blocker Priority: P2 Component: msvcp Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: johne53@tiscali.co.uk
I'm the developer of a Windows utility called ArdourXchange. It's used with an application called Mixbus which is a popular DAW, available for Linux, OS-X and Windows. On OS-X we package ArdourXchange with something called WineBottler. The Windows and OS-X versions work just fine. AxC was built with Visual C++ 6.0 and it uses MFC. Either of those facts may or may not be significant.
ArdourXchange used to run perfectly in Linux / Wine (this was a long time ago - back around ver 0.9.8 ). But since Wine went to ver 1.x, ArdourXchange has never worked with it. However, many users report success of they swap out 2 specific DLLs (MSVCP60.dll and MSVCRT.dll). If users replace the Wine versions and use the official Microsoft versions, AxC springs back to life again. Unfortunately, this solution doesn't work for everyone. At my end, I don't use Linux at all so I can't help much, except to pass on information. HOWEVER... I could provide free copies of ArdourXchange (and Mixbus, if needed).
According to a very recent report (only this morning) it was tested a few days ago against Wine v1.6.2, which I believe is a very recent version.
This morning I added an entry to the AppDB at WineHQ (although it pretty much says the same as this description). I can be contacted here, if anyone needs a copy of the software for testing:-

--- Comment #1 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net --- Not a blocker. http://bugs.winehq.org/page.cgi?id=fields.html
Please retest in 1.7.18 or later and attach (don't paste) terminal output.

--- Comment #2 from johne53 johne53@tiscali.co.uk --- Many thanks for your prompt reply Rosanne (and apologies for the 'blocker' confusion. I assumed that a blocker was an app that simply wouldn't start). As I mentioned in my original post, I'm not a Linux user. All I can do is provide a copy of the app to anyone who wishes to test it.

--- Comment #3 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net --- I can test it for you, and attach logs to the bug report, but I'm not a developer, so I can't actually fix anything, nor can I promise that anyone will. If no developer contacts you and you're willing to provide me a copy on those terms, PM me on the forum with the info.
Or, you could just refer your Linux users to this bug report, and they could provide logs.

--- Comment #4 from Piotr Caban piotr.caban@gmail.com --- It's probably working with newest wine. Please update the bug when you're done with testing.

--- Comment #5 from Piotr Caban piotr.caban@gmail.com --- I got an email that it works around 6 months ago. It looks like the bug is not going to be updated by the person who did the testing. Marking as fixed.

--- Comment #7 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net --- My apologies for not updating this. I had tested the app directly, and it behaved as expected, but from what the OR told me, that's not the way it's actually used. It's normally called from within another app, Mixbus, and there was still a question of whether that would work. I was waiting for the OR to get back to me about testing with Mixbus, but he never did, and it slipped my mind.

--- Comment #8 from johne53 johne53@tiscali.co.uk --- I'd like to apologise too. I spent 4 or 5 weeks trying to find any Mixbus (Linux) customer who'd agree to test ArdourXchange under Wine but nobody could find the time - not even if I offered a free copy of ArdourXchange!
Although it didn't represent a typical workflow, Rosanne's tests did seem to indicate that ArdourXchange is working now, so I guess we should take that as confirmation.

--- Comment #10 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello John,
you might want to change/tweak the following statement on your product homepage since it's reported to be working with Wine on Linux :)
https://sites.fastspring.com/creativepost/instant/ardourxchange
--- quote --- Linux users - please note that ArdourXchange is NOT compatible with Linux or Wine! --- quote ---
Also having an entry in Wine appdb might be beneficial in my opinion. It's of course not meant to replace the real product support for paying customers.
For example, stating the Wine version requirements: "has been tested successfully with Wine 1.7.x", "doesn't work with Wine 1.6.2" etc. could help.
Regards

--- Comment #11 from johne53 johne53@tiscali.co.uk --- Hi Anastasius. I just updated my product store. Many thanks for reminding me.
