NamedPipe conformance tests
by Dan Kegel 11 Feb '03

11 Feb '03

A couple questions: 1. Is anyone working on NamedPipe conformance tests? If not, I'd be happy to try. (Might be a challenge to scare up a Server version of Windows, so initially I'd just write the tests on Wine, and make sure they compiled with winelib and with vc++.) 2. Since CreateNamedPipe is only available on Server versions of Windows, we need a way to avoid running the test on non-server versions. Er, I suppose checking for the presence of CreateNamedPipe would be the way to go :-) I at first tried detecting the Windows version, but that's far too hairy. - Dan -- Dan Kegel http://www.kegel.com http://counter.li.org/cgi-bin/runscript/display-person.cgi?user=78045

Wine, FreeBSD, and PPC
by ArchAngel_Nix 11 Feb '03

11 Feb '03

I am running Gnome on a variant of FreeBSD called Darwin. Darwin runs on PPC architecture opposed to x86 architecture. My question is can Wine run on this variant of FreeBSD? Can I download the source and build Wine for my system? Will Wine work with other processor architectures, or only x86? Thanks for the help. -Mike Holley- mike(a)holleyinc.com

I added a stylesheet and in comes out looking slightly less ugly than an airport. More like a large, urban train station. But that probably has more to do with the colors I used than anything else. Rather than update your perl script, I'll just give some simple directions: 1) edit the top of the html output to include this: <HTML><HEAD> <LINK href="style.css" type=text/css rel=STYLESHEET> </HEAD> <BODY> (and you might want to add </BODY></HTML> at the end for good measure) 2) Then create the file style.css containing these lines: body { margin:0px; background-color:#660000; scrollbar-face-color: #DA7923; scrollbar-shadow-color: #80705D; scrollbar-highlight-color: #80705D; scrollbar-3dlight-color: #CEC6BC; scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #B8AA9A; scrollbar-track-color: #B8AA9A; scrollbar-arrow-color: #80705D; } td {vertical-align:top; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #333} td.middle {vertical-align:middle} td.CyclicDepend {background-color: #111} a {text-decoration: none; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;color:#c60} a:hover {font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;color:#fff} H1 {font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 13px;font-weight: bold;color: #993300;} ------- Brian Vincent vincentb(a)coppercolorado.com

smatch, something like the Stanford Checker
by Michael Stefaniuc 11 Feb '03

11 Feb '03

Hello, i always dreamed to have something like the Stanford Checker for Wine and some days ago i've seen on freshmeat smatch http://smatch.sourceforge.net/ . It's a project from KernelJanitors and it seems usefull, at least it's worth an entry on Dimi's janitorial page. A short description: Smatch is basicaly a patch to gcc-3.1.1 that makes the gcc dump out it's internal represantation of the code and a set of perl modules/scripts to ease the parsing of the dumped code. Most of the perl scripts are for the Linux Kernel but writing new scripts seems to be easy. I wrote (well, mostly adapted an existing script for the kernel) one script http://people.redhat.com/mstefani/wine/smatch/enter_leave.pl (if we decide to adopt smatch it should probably go to $wine/tools/smatch/) to find code path with missing LeaveCriticalSection's. Scripts to find some other usefull things like fd, DC, GDI obejects leaks should be easy to write.

MAXPNAMELEN in include/mmsystem.h is defined as #define MAXPNAMELEN 32 /* max product name length (including NULL) */ so it's perfectly correct to use strcpy here. -- Dmitry.

Windows API script updated
by David Miller 10 Feb '03

10 Feb '03

I've updated my script to output imported_api.html which lists all of the dlls and the specific APIs imported from other dlls. Hopefully that is a bit more useful than just which dlls are imported. There is a sample output here: http://home.ptd.net/~compsol/imported_api.gz It is about 800kb gzipped. It was 7MB before compressing. :) If anyone is interested, the script is attached again. You'll need to run with -parse to get this HTML. Now, should exported APIs somehow be part of the HTML as well?

WS_EX_TRANSPARENT bug
by Felipe W Damasio 10 Feb '03

10 Feb '03

Hi, First of all, I'd like to thank Tony Lambregts and Sander van Leeuwen for helping me. Tony: Since I tested and saw that Sander's patch fixed, I closed the bug. That patch should definitely enter on mainline! Anyway, I'm here to report another bug: CreateWindow's flag WS_EX_TRANSPARENT doesn't do anything. Cesar Mello did a little example program which uses this flag: Both source and an executable are available here: ftp://ftp.elipse.com.br/pub/transp/transp-exe.tar.gz ftp://ftp.elipse.com.br/pub/transp/transp-source.tar.gz I'll enter this bug on bugzilla right away. Does anyone can help me with this? Thanks, Felipe

AppDB updated
by Andreas Mohr 10 Feb '03

10 Feb '03

Hi all, I just (well, not "just": more like a matter of a whole week or so) committed about 170 or so new entries to the AppDB, thus reaching a count of 1523 distinct applications. I guess I'm feeling really exhausted now... Anyway, have fun browsing the site at http://appdb.winehq.org ! Andreas Mohr

press: International Herald Tribune review
by Dan Kegel 10 Feb '03

10 Feb '03

The review was of a Linux distro, but one of the big failings the reviewer cited was the inability to run "the Oxford English Dictionary on CD-ROM". http://www.iht.com/articles/86157.html --------- PARIS For several years now I have thought longingly about Linux, the power-to-the-people operating system that is said to be as stable as a rock, open and free and the embodiment of everything good in the world - in short, the exact opposite of Microsoft's Windows, both technically and politically. ... Early on, Lindows had claimed that it would be able to run all Windows programs, and it came with a utility called WINE that was supposed to make this miracle occur. In fact, it can run some Windows programs, Office 2000, for example, but can't run others, like Office XP. In general, the more sophisticated the Windows program, the less likely that WINE/Lindows is going to be able to run it. Lindows has changed its position. They've realized that trying to piggyback on Windows programs is a recipe for frustration, and WINE is no longer part of Lindows. The current view, Schwartzman said, is that "if there's a Linux alternative, you're going to have a better experience." ... I use GotoMyPC all of the time to access my home computer from other places. It doesn't work with Linux. I have the Oxford English Dictionary on CD-ROM, which I also use all of the time. It, too, does not work with Linux. There are too many programs for which there is no Linux alternative. . Lindows is a bold and commendable effort to challenge the Microsoft hegemony and make computers cheaper. Unfortunately, it fails. ---------- -- Dan Kegel http://www.kegel.com http://counter.li.org/cgi-bin/runscript/display-person.cgi?user=78045

SW_SHOWMINIMIZED bug
by Felipe W Damasio 10 Feb '03

10 Feb '03

Hi, SW_SHOWMINIMIZED has a weird bug: The application, when restored, goes blank and have to be killed and re-started to work again. This looks like an internal loop inside wine, or a wrong XLib flag being set. Cesar Mello (mello(a)elipse.com.br) wrote a little app to test it, and both the source and an executable are available for download here: ftp://ftp.elipse.com.br/pub/showWindow/showWindow-exe.tar.gz ftp://ftp.elipse.com.br/pub/showWindow/showWindow-src.tar.gz Can anybody help me with this? This seems to be critical, because to app does not work anymore untill it is re-started. I'll add an entry to bugs.winehq.com now. Thank you and kind Regards, Felipe
