MIDL and COM
by Ove Kaaven 16 Nov '01

16 Nov '01

OK, since list traffic is low at the moment (which might be because /var on WineHQ got full again, and as usual the secondary MX provided by Corel seems to have the functionality of a black hole, so I've now moved the apache logs off /var), I thought I'd try to liven it up a bit with a couple of things I'm wondering about... Problem 1: MIDL-generated code. midl.exe is Microsoft's IDL compiler, it reads .idl files which describe RPC and COM interface, from which it generates .c files, .h files, and typelibs. (It is possible to find copies of midl.exe floating on the net, as some people have put together "COM kits" for Borland C++ that contains midl.exe and some standard .idl files and put them on the web) But can the machine-generated sources that MIDL outputs be put into the official Wine source? And how about source IDL files? Can we put into Wine IDL extracted from real Windoze .tlb files with a tool like oleview.exe, or IDL parsed from MIDL-generated Windows SDK .h files, like objidl.h, with a script? Problem 2: RPCSS rpcss.exe is the place that keeps track of which process owns which RPC endpoints, exported COM objects, and object activation tables. The IRunningObjectTable interface, for example, is managed by rpcss.exe, and keeps track of certain kinds of COM objects on the computer, so that other processes can connect to running COM objects. We probably don't want Wine to have to run a separate process for this? If not, can we put this kind of COM stuff into the wineserver?

This patch causes the listview class to enter some sort of infinite repaint loop on our application. Is someone else already tackling it?

Argh, why is stupid license speak always so darned long ??? This is the second time that I've seen problems caused by license stuff. (I had a similar problem with dbgstring_a() output).

Even if the option is not supported by Wine, using a socket of -1 is probably incorrect. So either the app has a bug that occurs also under Windows, or the invalid value comes from a previous problem (maybe because of an invalid installation) Also, this app is using msvcrt. Make sure that you use 'native' msvcrt if you have it (-debugmsg +loaddll). Maybe the problem has nothing to do with sockets. Gerard

On Linux, it shouldn't do any harm. On Linux and Solaris, MAP_FIXED has a different meaning: it will *replace* any pre-existing mapping at the given address, typically causing corruption. I'm not sure what the BSD behaviour is; are you sure they handle MAP_FIXED differently? On Linux, this is not a problem because *without* MAP_FIXED, it will always use the specified address unless there is a conflict with existing mappings. On Solaris, we've implemented a hack that emulates the Linux behaviour in this respect (look at the routine solaris_try_mmap, which is called from wine_anon_mmap). I guess the proper fix would be to implement a similiar BSD specific workaround inside wine_anon_mmap. The Solaris version will probably not work unchanged on BSD, however. If you are correct in your interpretation of the semantics of MAP_FIXED on BSD, a workaround could look like this: first, try mapping with MAP_FIXED; if this fails, repeat without.

Well, I have about 20 test apps and 2 don't start anymore, the rest working as well as before. That's pretty ordinary ;-) I'm not completely sure if the patch is the culprit (I use Cvs and I get several patches at the same time). I don't have the time to investigate further right now. More later. Gerard

Good day! regapi still works. My little winelib program exits with no error, but leaves a stale socket and does nothing. juno.exe, progman, I_view32.exe, and Dmitry's little About.exe leave a stuck wine process and a stale wineserver socket. I expect there is general consternation, or else it has been fixed already, but I guess I will have to reverse the patch to see.
