MS' hidden API
by Zhang Shu 09 Jul '02

09 Jul '02

Dear wine developers, I have one question on the development of wine. Long(one or two years) ago I've heard that Microsoft got some hidden APIs in their products of various windows, and they use these APIs in their own applications. I wonder if this is still a problem on their recent product like windows XP. If it is, I guess wine will not be able to run such MS applications which uses hidden APIs. Is this right? And, is wine designed(or its goal is) to run all applications(including MS … [View More]

MAX_PATH mess fix
by Steven Edwards 01 May '02

01 May '02

It seems mingw tries to include stdlib.h after windef.h in the build process and that was the result of the warnings/error. By making this change I don't have to change any of the other headers That depend on MAX_PATH (winnls,wingdi) by adding stdlib.h in them. I don't know if its right by the wine project standards but now I can compile 90% of the wine dll sources without warrnings/errors from stupid MAX_PATH. If someone has a better way please cvs diff -u me =) Thanks Steven Changelog:… [View More]

wineconsole (Eric?) problem
by Ann and Jason Edmeades 01 May '02

01 May '02

Hi again, Another bug I have spotted can be demonstrated clearly by dir /s /w on wcmd on a small set of directories a couple of times (once my patch for /w is on). The first time it writes to the screen without scrolling and all is ok, the second time as it scrolls, it misses off 'Total files listed' and 'bytes free' two lines near the bottom. Basically the wineconsole is not being updated 100% correctly and skips some lines. Looking closely at the wineconsole code (by dumping out the screen … [View More]

Bugzilla: A Call to Arms
by Andriy Palamarchuk 01 May '02

01 May '02

We already had discussion on wine-devel about importance of polishing Wine, making a set of applications to work very well. Cruicial in this process is prioritizing of the issues, work distribution between developers. The companies already have internal testing and bug fixing process. Of course, each company has their own product-specific work, but most of the problems are general for Wine. I suggest to share this work more actively using Bugzilla. Recently there was some work done in … [View More]cleaning the issues database and it is in pretty much usable condition. To start using bugzilla more actively I suggest following steps: 1) define subsystem/direction owners. The owners will get their system-specific bugs. They won't necessary fix the bugs themselfs, but will have complete picture about all the issues in their subsystems and coordinate the bug fixing. Developers, please let me know your areas of expertese. I can overview Wine applications. 2) more formally define process of bugs handling and use this process. There is no high qualification needed to filter out bad bug reports, duplicates, request users for more information, attach relay trace to the bug, etc, etc. Result - developers will have to spend less time on discussion trivial bugs with users, will have better bug reports to work on, users will be more involved with more active feedback. Some users are very cooperative and some bug reports are really excellent! I see that Tony Lambregts, Michael Cardenas, others do a great work with the Bugzilla database. I'm also going to contribute some time for this. 3) Prioritize bugs. This is, probably, part of (2). Some bugs, while relatively easy to fix provide very big value for the end user. Often developers do not choose such issues to work on, exactly because these issues do not present challenge to them. BTW, I do not see a field "Priority" in the bugs entries. 4) Ask users to submit there problems in Bugzilla. Submitting Bugzilla report allows us to involve users more actively, persist their bug reports. Bugzilla is a more scalable approach than using mailing list only. Of course we still will discuss bugs on the mailing lists, bug big part of communication will be unloaded. There is a lot to do and discuss. For me the goal is to have this process not worse than in Mozilla project. This is impressive: http://webtools.mozilla.org/miscstats/ http://mothra.mozilla.org/webtools/miscstats/ I also like their bug report form: http://www.mozilla.org/quality/help/bugzilla-helper.html And this is for 1 application only! I'm sure Wine can generate much bigger volume of bug reports ;-) Look forward for your comments. Andriy __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
