Wine Contrib v0.7
by Dimitrie O. Paun 30 Dec '02

30 Dec '02

Folks, A new version of the Wine Contrib page is available for your viewing pleasure at: http://www.dssd.ca/wine/Wine-Contrib-0.7.html Thanks to Tom for this new version. I forgot to mention that Jeff has also fixed a _lot_ of HTML problems in this page, and has made it HTML 4.01 compliant. My apologies to him for this (unintended) omission. -- Dimi.

gcov and wine?
by Dan Kegel 30 Dec '02

30 Dec '02

Has anyone ever tried building wine with gcov, then running the conformance test suite to see how much of the wine code gets exercised? - Dan -- Dan Kegel Linux User #78045 http://www.kegel.com

From what I can tell these should be incorporated into the wine status page. This seems to be the logical place for them. Most of the files are a year or more old so I would tend to think that they are out of date. Whoever does this will probably need to ask some questions to the developers. In theory Each DLL should have a ToDo list inside the main .c file (or something like that (i can't fine the thread)) a little help here? Having these in documentation is doing neither the users or the developers any good. Again in "theory" someone could grep for "To Do" in wine and get a good idea of the status of that component. > > > Also are we going to be doing any work on man pages ? > If not does Dimi need to add them to this list ?

Right now we could use someone "New To Wine" to go through the users guide one chapter at a time and report to us *anything* they don't understand. Anyone is welcome to point out errors and offer any suggestions to help improve the documentation. Of course a patch is even better but if we do not know about a problem we can not fix it. -- Tony Lambregts

Problem with ShellExecute and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths
by Dan Kegel 29 Dec '02

29 Dec '02

I have a windows-free installation of current CVS wine, with wordpad.exe and the needed DLLs pulled in from a Windows ME installation. wordpad works great. However, ShellExecute(... "wordpad.exe", ".\\stl\\readme.wri" ...) is failing to find wordpad.exe for me. (The call in question is issued by the msvc4.0 setup.exe. The current directory when I run this is /mnt/cdrom, and stl/readme.wri is indeed there.) To get some insight on how this is supposed to work, I went to a real Windows Me system, searched the registry for references to "wordpad.exe", and removed them, one by one, testing after each deletion. The reference that mattered was [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\WORDPAD.EXE] @="C:\\Progra~1\\Access~1\\WORDPAD.EXE" So I ran "regedit foo.reg" to import the above registry key, and made sure it does show up in ~/.wine/system.reg. Still didn't work. I then ran wine --debugmsg +exec,+file,+reg setup.exe to see whether Wine was properly searching that registry key. Sure enough, Wine is trying to search that key, and it's not finding it. So... what's wrong? Best I can figure is there's something fishy about what registry file is being loaded. Here are the interesting bits of the log (word wrapped, unfortunately): --------------------- ... trace:reg:NtQueryValueKey (0x24,L"LoadWindowsRegistryFiles",2,0xbfffe7fc,1024) trace:reg:_w31_loadreg (void) trace:file:FILE_DoOpenFile reg.dat OF_READ OF_SHARE_COMPAT trace:file:FILE_DoOpenFile reg.dat 0000 trace:reg:NtOpenKey ((nil),L"Machine\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\App Paths",f003f,0xbfffbb08) trace:reg:NtOpenKey <- (nil) warn:file:FILE_DoOpenFile 'reg.dat' not found or sharing violation warn:file:FILE_DoOpenFile (reg.dat): return = HFILE_ERROR error= 2 trace:reg:NtQueryValueKey (0x24,L"LoadGlobalRegistryFiles",2,0xbfffe7fc,1024) trace:reg:NtQueryValueKey (0x24,L"GlobalRegistryDir",2,0xbfffe7fc,1024) trace:reg:SHELL_LoadRegistry GlobalRegistryDir is '/usr/local/etc'. warn:reg:_get_wine_registry_file_format_version Couldn't open /usr/local/etc/wine.userreg for reading: No such file or directory warn:reg:_get_wine_registry_file_format_version Couldn't open /usr/local/etc/wine.systemreg for reading: No such file or directory ...

Re: PATCH: dlls/cabinet/cabextract.c and off_t

The relationship to off_t is historical: cabextract (the unix executable, which I ported) used off_t because it used the fopen/fseek/fgetpos/etc family of functions. Wanting to depend only on kernel32, I ported these to use windowsy api's like CreateFile/SetFilePointer/etc, which take LONG arguments, IIRC. My memory on this is already a bit hazy, but I think I created cab_off_t to save myself keystrokes -- I basically was able to go through much of the code and just turn "off_t"'s into "cab_off_t"'s. Initially I tried to support huge (64 bit offset) files -- cab_off_t was going to be a struct with two LONGS -- but later I decided I was too lazy, since this would have required a substantial reworking of the logic, some of which I didn't even take the time to fully understand. There's a fair amount of math in there and in some places off_t's got passed around, converted to other types, etc.... so I decided I should bang out the port first and worry about the finer details later. The easy version of the right fix is probably just to rename "cab_off_t" to something less confusing (i.e., cab_file_offset). The fancy fix would be to support huge files, which might be a bit of a project. -- gmt "It does not take a majority to prevail ... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." --Samuel Adams, Patriot

Another Wine OSS hang-at-end-of-playback bug
by Matt Chapman 29 Dec '02

29 Dec '02

Hi, I'm seeing some apps hang after playing an audio sample (even after the latest fix from Eric Pouech/Dan Kegel). I've tracked it down to the following. dwBufferSize is calculated from info->fragstotal * info->fragsize: wwo->dwBufferSize = info.fragstotal * info.fragsize; whereas dwPlayedTotal is calculated using info->bytes: wwo->dwPlayedTotal = wwo->dwWrittenTotal - (wwo->dwBufferSize - info->bytes); Thus the assumption is that, at beginning and end of playback, info->fragstotal * info->fragsize == info->bytes, so that wwo->dwPlayedTotal == wwo->dwWrittenTotal. But, for my soundcard (ymfpci driver), after asking for 15 frags * 1024 bytes the situation is: fragments = 15, fragstotal = 18, fragsize = 1024, bytes = 15612 i.e. info->fragstotal * info->fragsize = 18432, info->bytes = 15612 Thus dwPlayedTotal never reaches dwWrittenTotal and the last buffer never gets marked as done. Using info->bytes for wwo->dwBufferSize does fix my problem, not sure if there's a better solution. Matt [Looking at the driver, it looks like the difference is a safety margin to stop the DSP when it reaches the end. Arguably the driver should just report 15 in fragstotal and not bother applications with the detail that its buffer is actually 18 frags in size...] Index: dlls/winmm/wineoss/audio.c =================================================================== RCS file: /home/wine/wine/dlls/winmm/wineoss/audio.c,v retrieving revision 1.68 diff -u -r1.68 audio.c --- dlls/winmm/wineoss/audio.c 15 Dec 2002 02:59:13 -0000 1.68 +++ dlls/winmm/wineoss/audio.c 28 Dec 2002 09:56:46 -0000 @@ -1357,7 +1357,7 @@ /* Remember fragsize and total buffer size for future use */ wwo->dwFragmentSize = info.fragsize; - wwo->dwBufferSize = info.fragstotal * info.fragsize; + wwo->dwBufferSize = info.bytes; wwo->dwPlayedTotal = 0; wwo->dwWrittenTotal = 0; wwo->bNeedPost = TRUE;

Mac OS X Port of WineLib
by ATMRD＠aol.com 29 Dec '02

29 Dec '02

Hi, I dont recall how I stumbled upon Wine and its existance, however I am intersted in recent, if any, devlopments with the porting of Wine to OS X. I checked the Wine site and most of the articles are dated with the lastest date of Nov 2000. A lot has changed in OS X since that time and it appears that a leats a couple of the main issues have been addressed during this time. The main issues which seemed to be posted are as follows: Current list of possible issues: ================================ -> Endianness. Since we are using WineLib, could have resources written in native (big) endian format with wrc. Any external data files such as cursors, bitmaps, sound would have to be converted. The PUT_WORD/GET_WORD macros need byte swapping turned off. (Did I miss anything?) -> Exception handling, Signal handling code -> Memory alignment issues -> According to "Inside MacOS X: Kernel Environment" (<A HREF="http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/Kernel/KernelEnvironment.pdf">http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/Kernel/KernelEnvironment.pdf</A>) pg. 34, Darwin supports Pthreads, "many of the POSIX APIs" I haven't been able to find any lists of incompatibilities yet, but I am afraid of the word "many". -> According to the "MacOS X Kernel Environment" book, pg. 37, Mac OSX does not support memory mapped devices through the mmap API. This would affects at least streaming sound playback. -> WSControl / WSAIoctl need to be adapted to MacOS X. (ioctl() calls can be platform dependent, /proc/net/dev on linux is probably different on OSX) -> Sound Support. Currently done with WineOSS (ties into Linux OSS drivers) Doesn't seem to be a port of OSS to MacOSX. Maybe need to do another layer specific to the Mac(?) -> Must ensure that behaviour of lower level UNIX resources like sockets, threads, files are the way WINE expects it. -> Presence of Assembly language in code will have to be written in C or translated to PowerPC assembly. (assembly is generated in spec.c files, as well as other places like in the server) -> Debugger seems tied completely to Intel architecture. (Since we will be using WineLib, we probably don't need winedbg, can use gdb?) -> Need a X11 server or need to make a x11drv replacement that is Quartz specific. (There is a XFree86 port to MacOS X, but it only runs seperately from Quartz at this time. Making the X server a rootless client of Quartz is on the TODO list of Darwin but there is no mention of its current status. There is a commercial server, at: <A HREF="http://www.tenon.com/products/xtools/"> http://www.tenon.com/products/xtools/</A> which already implements this) -- the XFree86 port to MacOS X now includes a rootless clinet of Quartz so this should be a big jump having the window manager avialable. -> Need to be able to build Windows app using gcc (might be issues such as using MS specific keywords/language constructs, etc.) Does ATL build properly with gcc? in addition James Hatheway wrote on Nov 10 2000 "To test these concerns, I made four test apps and compiled and ran them on Mac OS X. I used the "Mac OS X Public Beta Developer Tools CD" which is downloadable from<A HREF="http://connect.apple.com"> http://connect.apple.com </A> The first test app used mmap and MAP_SHARED option, the second sent messages between two programs using sendto over a socket, the third used file I/O functions (like read,write) to send messages over a socket, the fourth sent an FD over a socket to another process using sendmsg/recvmsg. I have good news, each of these programs compiled without modification on MacOS X with the standard cc, and ran perfectly!! So, I don't think there are any show stoppers that would keep us from being able to port WineLib to MacOS X. Of course there would be work to do, but at least it is definitely possible. " I dont no what has happend to the WineLib port to MacOSX if anything. However, I am willing with what time I have to begin a port, since it does seem like it can be done now, hopefully with a group of people. In addition apple has posted some information regarding win32 porting that may be a little help at "http://developer.apple.com/macosx/win32porting/". Hope you had the best of holidays.
