[Bug 40047] New: Prison Architect fails to launch -- unimplemented function shcore.dll.GetDpiForMonitor

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40047

Bug ID: 40047
           Summary: Prison Architect fails to launch -- unimplemented
                    function shcore.dll.GetDpiForMonitor
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.9.2
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

Prison Architect (all versions) ran almost flawlessly in Wine, up to and
including Wine version 1.9.1. However, since the 1.9.2 update, it fails to
launch; throwing this exception:

"wine: Call from 0x7b83ba9c to unimplemented function
shcore.dll.GetDpiForMonitor, aborting
wine: Unimplemented function shcore.dll.GetDpiForMonitor called at address
0x7b83ba9c (thread 0009), starting debugger...
Unhandled exception: unimplemented function shcore.dll.GetDpiForMonitor called
in 32-bit code (0x7b83ba9c)."

And then obviously a lot of debugger information, stacktrace and all.

Research into shcore.dll showed it being used in Windows 8.1+. However, even
with winecfg set to Windows XP, Prison Architect used to run fine. Versions of
Prison Architect I have played extensively using Wine no longer work, at all. I
did make sure to try a specific version of which I know it have worked (GOG
2.1.0.3).

This issue is Wine Staging specific, the stub dll has not been added in the
development branch yet. As a workaround you can disable "shcore" in the winecfg
libraries tab in the meantime. I'll take care of implementing a stub.

Then I find it kind of weird that in previous versions of Wine Staging it did
not crash like this either. Still, I'll try the workaround, see if it'll launch
properly then. Should that provide something worth mentioning, I'll report
back.

Shcore.dll was added to Wine Staging in the last release (1.9.2). The
application most likely tries to load it at runtime, and uses a different code
path now because it assumes to be running under a more modern operating system.

The issue should be fixed with
https://github.com/wine-compholio/wine-staging/commit/8d7e0791fefa968d41e3b1...
which implements the missing function.

Please retest, if there are more issues (for example, additional unimplemented
functions) please open a new bug report for them.

1.9.4 no longer causes Prison Architect to crash; the patch did indeed fix it,
no additional functionality of ShCore.dll seems required for Prison Architect
to run smoothly.
