listview advice needed.

Hi, Agent 2.0 beta crashes on listview related code, and requires native comctl32 to run.

Freeze in Agent 2.0 beta.

Hi, When downloading headers form multiple groups Agent often locks up. The program does the following: -(Main). main thread creates a sub thread: | 0009:Call kernel32.CreateThread(00000000,00002000,006648e0,41ac6cb0,00000004,41ac6cb0) ret=006649c9 | 0009: *fd* 23 <- 41 | 0009: new_thread( suspend=1, inherit=0, request_fd=23 ) | 0009: new_thread() = 0 { tid=0021, handle=0xcc } | 0021: *fd* 27 <- 42 | 0021: *fd* 29 <- 45 | 0021: init_thread( unix_pid=4966, unix_tid=-1, teb=0x40319000, entry=0x404fa110, reply_fd=27, wait_fd=29 ) | 0021: init_thread() = 0 { pid=0008, tid=0021, boot=0, version=126 } | 0021: select( flags=8, cookie=0x4031ac78, timeout=1068729666.690492 (-0.000050), handles={} ) | 0021: select() = PENDING | 0009:Ret kernel32.CreateThread() retval=000000cc ret=006649c9 -(SUB).

In all of them the subthread finished well before the main thread executed its Wait. I was looking for timing differences between the processing of the two threads, checking whether and when the WM_NULL message gets processed. Nothing seems to stand out. Any suggestions how to debug this? A large cut from the +relay,+server trace is on http://www.xs4all.nl/~rklazes/temp/agserver.log.bz2 Rein. -- Rein Klazes rklazes(a)xs4all.nl

Can I turn off freetype at runtime
by Bill Medland 17 Nov '03

17 Nov '03

Is it possible to turn off the freetype use at runtime, e.g. by changing something in the config file? Basically under SuSE several dialogs are drawing with 5 pixel text whereas under Windows they are about 9 pixel high (which I don't understand because I think that they should not exceed 8). Under RedHat they are 7 pixel which are at least readable. I hope that if I can turn off the freetype then on SuSE it will get the same font as on RedHat I tried setting an Alias but it didn't make any difference; it still used the same font instead of the alias -- Bill Medland mailto:billmedland@mercuryspeed.com http://webhome.idirect.com/~kbmed

Hai all, I would like to know is it possible to run 'a windows application which uses a database' in linux using the WINE S/w. I have got an application "English Tutor" developed for windows ( Developed using Flash software). It uses the MS Access database & also it will run only if the CD is present in the system. I want to make it work in Linux.I tried to run the installation program directly from the CD using wine. But it showed an error something like " Activex component can't create object". Do anybody has any idea. Please reply ______________________________________ Scanned and protected by Email scanner

wine-pthread hangs
by Jeremy Shaw 17 Nov '03

17 Nov '03

Hello, I was trying to run wine-pthread, but it hangs immediately after startup -- I can't even hit cntl-c to exit. If I try to run it under gdb, it seg faults. A backtrace looks like: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Linux 2.4.22 libc6 2.3.2 Do I need to do something special to get this working? I am trying to use wine-pthread because I want to use the winejack driver. The winejack driver does not work correctly with wine-kthread, because in libjack, there is a call to pthread_create which never returns. According to usenet, this could happen because wine-kthread is not linked against libpthread explicitly. I tried adding an explicit -lpthread to wine-kthread, but this just cause wine-kthread to hang (similar to wine-pthread, but in a different location). I also tried running ./configure --enable-nptl and installing a version of libc with nptl support, but I think nptl requires features added in 2.5.x -- so this was probably just wishful thinking. Thanks! Jeremy Shaw.

Re: Localization to portguese - winecfg (with patch)

Well, I don't have any real problem with it, but as I said before it's pretty pointless IMHO. The GUI is going to start changing again when I next get time to work on it (unfortunately not anytime soon in the foreseeable future), so you'll have to update it all over again. What winecfg needs now is code rather than strings.... On Sat, 15 Nov 2003 15:43:18 -0300, Sir Marcelo Duarte scribed thus: > I updated the resources of winecfg.

I hope this is OK with you. As I said in the original post, I am not a wine "developer" (too ignorant for that), I am a (potential) user of the wine library, and the wine-user list people seemed to think my question was for wine-devel. At this point I don't even know if I have a bug or some finger-trouble, and if I have a bug, it is with an old version, yet a newer version gives me big problems, so I dont't want to go to the bug report stage if all I am doing is making some stupid mistake. The link http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wine-20031016-mdk9.1.i586.rpm?downl… is broken. The latest rpm there for Mandrake is dated 20030911. I believe that is the version I downloaded and which would crash on starting my programs, which as I said, is the reason I reverted back to the version that came with Mandrake 9.1. There is no Mandrake rpm at Sourceforge for wine-devel, so which wine-devel rpm should I use? Given that I can obtain a complete set of compatible rpms, do I need to un-install my present wine installation? What will happen to my .wine directory? Will the old config info be used, or will it confuse the new installation? I have my own "wine" directory, under which is my own assembly of a "windows" installation, which took some time to get right. Should I keep this? -- Parzival Herzog

looking for some help with DIB code from WINE
by Jonathan Wilson 15 Nov '03

15 Nov '03

I am working on ReactOS and would like to take the code in static void X11DRV_DIB_SetImageBits_RLE4( int lines, const BYTE *bits, DWORD width, DWORD dstwidth, int left, int *colors, XImage *bmpImage ) and static void X11DRV_DIB_SetImageBits_RLE8( int lines, const BYTE *bits, DWORD width, DWORD dstwidth, int left, int *colors, XImage *bmpImage ) And use it as a jumping-off point to add support for RLE butmaps into ReactOS. Looking at the parameters, I can see that: XImage *bmpImage is the image itself (basicly, I guess its the X11 equivelent of a HDC or a HBITMAP or something) int *colors is the color table and const BYTE *bits is the bits themselves. since ReactOS is only going to uncompress and store the bitmap bits, we dont need to worry about the color table or the XImage Anyhow, what I want to know is what the int lines, DWORD width, DWORD dstwidth, and int left parameters to these 2 functions mean.

I noticed that in the original patch a lot of functions were called from DllMain that shouldn't be called from there. Did the backtrace include wintab32.DllMain?

keyboard warnings

Due to recent changes in dlls/x11drv/keyboard.c, I compiled wine with CVS from 2003/nov/14. Although I use a french keyboard, the layout has some problems. I already provided a patch which avoids the warnings but it was a dirty hack.

Of course, that could be done later, after the patch is committed. -- Dmitry.

LinuxWorld Expo NY
by Jeremy White 14 Nov '03

14 Nov '03

Hi All, I somewhat impetuously requested a table for the Wine Project at the LinuxWorld New York expo, without really thinking if anyone could man the table. We'll have a CodeWeavers specific area in another part of the expo, so we won't really be able to provide a lot of help (and won't need any extra promotion). So, I was wondering if anyone wanted to go to New York and represent the Wine Project. If so, let me know privately. If I don't hear anything, I'll quietly tell IDG <small> nevermind </small>. Cheers, Jer

old addition: winetests
by Ferenc Wagner 13 Nov '03

13 Nov '03

Hello, I am making slow progress with this thing. It grew sort of usable: can be cross compiled and run to produce sensible output (tested on XP only). Present questions: 1. How to integrate cross compilation into the Makefile? 2. It is possible to compile this as a Winelib application, but the spawn call must be modified to invoke Wine instead of the test itself. Gives better results for the comctl32 tests (DPA import et al.), but is it worth it? Do we need is_elf and friends? 3. How to derive/give the cleaning rules? 4. Did Jon Bright contribute his SMTP client in the end? We could as well use it... Or would it be better (more reliable) to POST it through HTTP? 5. The #include section at the top of main.c looks weird. (It is the minimum to compile without warnings.) Maybe mkdir() should be moved into port.h? 6. EXTRADEFS = -DWINELIB is probably the wrong way. 7. Is there a way to get this into CVS after all? Feri.

Re: int21 handling
by Jukka Heinonen 13 Nov '03

13 Nov '03

A few comments about this patch by Eric Pouech. Structure DosHeap must not be moved to winedos. There already exists per drive media ID byte which should be used and biosdate, while it may be needed by some programs, won't do any good in a separate 16-bit segment. Also, INT21_CreateHeap is unnecessary. IOCTL 0x0860 and CreateBPB should include FIXME comments because it does not check real drive types nor real drive geometry. The same is true with other IOCTLs that return fake values. INT21_NetworkFunc should return NETBIOS name. There is a separate Win32 API for returning proper names, don't use gethostname. INT21_GetDriveAllocInfo should pass drive as a parameter, rewriting registers makes code less readable. As far as I know, TRUENAME implementation is broken. Add big FIXME notes to that subfunction. Use INT21_MapDrive instead of manual conversion from zero=default into zero='A' convention, that is why it is there. Use wide characters and manual wide character conversions. DOS routines use OEM code page and not ANSI code page and Wine uses wide characters as default character set, anyway. Also, adding drive number to 'A' may work incorrectly with illegal drives and 8-bit character set but it works fine with wide character set. -- Jukka Heinonen <http://www.iki.fi/jhei/>

Ok, that's it. I think many of the conformance tests are way to noisy. Many of them spews out lots and lots of output EVEN when they actually pass. It clutters the log, making it harder to read - and now this; so big a test log it awaits moderation. :-) Should I submit patches making the conformance tests much more quiet when passing - would the patches be applied?

VARIANT_ValidateType ?
by Marcus Meissner 13 Nov '03

Hi Jon, Can you please explain why VARIANT_ValidateType rejects for instance VT_SAFEARRAY variants (and more) with DISP_E_BADVARTYPE? Why does it handle the whole range VT_HRESULT - VT_CF as invalid (except VT_RECORD) ? We got one InstallShield regression from this patch (where it wants to clear a VT_SAFEARRAY I think).

Hello all!! My name is Leonardo, and i'm working in a project that will migrate thousands of windows NT4 machines to Linux. In this project we will do some wine impplementations, if needed. The apps that we are testing is some VB6/5 apps and DataBase client apps. None of the apps executed correctly. So we will impplement wine. I need to know why when we use Native DLL these apps doesn't work. How does wine open the native dll files?

Wine 20031016 "Wingdings" font encoding problem?
by Parzival Herzog 13 Nov '03

13 Nov '03

I have wine-20031016 built from source installed on Mandrake 9.1 Programs that had displayed certain characters from the Windows "Wingdings" font, now display the box that signifies that the character code is not present in the font. With the standard wine (20030315) installed with Mandrake, these characters used to showed up as the astrological zodiac signs, i.e. Aries, Taurus, etc., just as they do when my program is run natively. The font is copied from windows, the Wingdings Truetype font. The character codes are (decimal) 94 - 105 (hex) 0x5E - 0x69 (ascii) "^" - "i" I have installed these Windows fonts under KDE, and, if I select the Wingdings font in, say KDE Kwrite, and type "^_`abcdefghi", all the expected character glyphs show. is this a bug, or a configuration problem? (I use some other non-Microsoft fonts as well, and some of these work, for the codes used, and some don't, although with earlier versions of wine, they all worked. Since Wingdings is a well-known and used font, I hope that solving the problem for it, will solve it for the others as well.) -- Parzival Herzog

Yes, but you can leave .wine and your fake windows installation, if you use one. The old config should "Just work", if it doesn't just use winesetuptk to make a new one. I don't know how to solve your problem, but it would be a good idea if you just installed the latest CVS version. If you really want the latest RPM, you can get it here http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wine-20031016-mdk.i586.rpm?download but the CVS would be a better solution, as the binary is stripped of all debug symbols, so it's harder to debug with a rpm version.

wine 20031016 installed from source: no winebuild
by Parzival Herzog 12 Nov '03

12 Nov '03

I had earliler experienced some problems with my Mandrake 9.1 installation of wine, when trying to use the wine libraries. I have now done the following: installed wine-20031016-mdk.i586.rpm My binary programs seemed to run fine, (except for a font problem described in a separate post). Since the development tools, winemaker etc were present, I decided to try to build my application. This proceeded well beyond where I could get to earlier (wrc failed), but ended as follows: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [parz@h24-79-72-61 MyWin]$ make c++ -c -I. -I/usr/local/include/python2.3 -I/usr/include/wine/windows -g -O2 -fpermissive -fno-for-scope -D_REENTRANT -o MyWin.o MyWin.cpp In file included from /usr/local/include/python2.3/Python.h:8, from MyWin.cpp:4: /usr/local/include/python2.3/pyconfig.h:847:1: warning: "_POSIX_C_SOURCE" redefined In file included from /usr/include/ctype.h:27, from /usr/include/wine/windows/winnt.h:27, from /usr/include/wine/windows/windef.h:203, from /usr/include/wine/windows/windows.h:38, from MyWin.cpp:2: /usr/include/features.h:131:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" /usr/bin/winebuild -fPIC -o mywin.dll.spec.c --spec mywin.dll.spec MyWin.res MyWin.o -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib/wine -ladvapi32 -lcomdlg32 -lgdi32 -lkernel32 -lodbc32 -lole32 -loleaut32 -lshell32 -luser32 -lwinspool mywin.dll.spec:1: could not open .def file for advapi32 make: *** [mywin.dll.spec.c] Error 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So I assumed that the missing library specs were a part of the wine-devel package, which was not installed. I could not locate any wine-devel rpms for version 20031016 and Mandrake. So, I dowmloaded the 20031016 source tarball and installed it with the tools/install. This seemd to work well, except that at the end of the , the following complaint appears: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- mkdir -m 755 -p -- /usr/local/share/aclocal /usr//bin/install -c -m 644 ./aclocal.m4 /usr/local/share/aclocal/wine.m4 /sbin/ldconfig ************************************************* ************************************************* The installed Wine libraries will not be found!

Re: Wintab32 - Tablet support - VBtablet & wintab working for Dogwaffle?

I too would be very interested in knowing what's happening with wintab32 under wine - is it usable? How about in conjunction with VBtablet from www.greenreaper.co.uk ? He has a small test program there which reports pressure, angle etc.... you might want to see if that works. Does somebody on this list have a Wacom, AceCad, Pablo (Disney Magic Artist) or Aiptek tablet to try Dogwaffle with it? project Dogwaffle uses VBtablet. The latest v1.6 demo is at www.thebest3d.com/dogwaffle/freebies , the free version 1.11b is at download.com and Tucows.com but didn't use VBtablet yet so not interesting (well for tablet users anyway, still might be of interest for entry-level painters; I doubt the installer will work but hey if it does, yipeee). the other day at a show in Anaheim I tried some things with the help of someone from The Linux Box, was neat to see Carrara Studio 2 running on it. Few minor glitches but still sweet. I'm interested in seeing Dogwaffle qualified/working etc. Anyone here serious about making this work? contact me if you need an NFR copy to test. A general question: Dogwaffle uses COM, ActiveX communication channels (I don't know much details). Anybody have a feeling if that's a no-no under Wine? -Philip > A couple of months ago there was a patch from Aric Stewart that added > support for graphics tablets in wine.

Write of address 00400000" The problem happens in this line of the patch: - if (!(view = VIRTUAL_CreateView( ptr, total_size, 0, VPROT_COMMITTED|VPROT_READ, hmapping ))) + if (!(view = VIRTUAL_CreateView( ptr, total_size, 0, + VPROT_COMMITTED | VPROT_READ | VPROT_WRITE | + VPROT_EXEC | VPROT_WRITECOPY | VPROT_IMAGE, hmapping ))) It works fine, if you remove the flags VPROT_WRITE and VPROT_WRITECOPY.

Has anyone actually tried to get a patent licence from the patent holder (i.e. Borland) for this?

It's a myth that mailing lists are outdated. The web-based forums and wikis people are advocating all have their own drawbacks IMHO. Why not simply point people to http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.wine.devel and/or news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.wine.devel (or maybe even http://groups.google.com/groups?group=comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine) and be done with it? I detest the idea of using a klunky web forum; they're usually poorly-indexed, and every one has a different interface; I'd rather use the standard mail/news interface, or at least a standard web gateway like groups.google.com or news.gmane.org. Do try the gmane gateway for a while before deciding to chuck it all and go the infantile web forum route. - Dan

[Ever had the feeling you regret asking a question...] Possibly another question for Alexander then - Realistically do you believe that we can ever support copy protection, and if so how? If we can work out how to load the driver in question (which remember is safedisk specific, there's others) then are we ok to put dodgy hacks in wine to ensure the driver gets the results it is expecting? Possibly a follow on question then is how are we supposed to work out what the driver is expecting, ie is debugging it a way to go? Sorry, not being obstructive - I want to stick the the techically achievable goals. Jason
