Middleware regression test suites, e.g. ACE
by Dan Kegel 26 Mar '03

26 Mar '03

The idea of using middleware test suites to test Wine has come up before, I'm sure, but while looking for real world uses of overlapped I/O to named pipes for my named pipe conformance test, I noticed a good candidate. ACE is a set of object-oriented wrappers around operating system primitives, See http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE.html I think it's cruft (hey, it's c++ :-), but in spite of that, it is the basis of a whole lot of software, some very, very good. Ace has a largish set of regression tests which, being tests of a fairly thin OS abstraction layer, would be an almost perfect match for Wine's needs. See http://cvs.doc.wustl.edu/ace-cvs.cgi/ACE_wrappers/tests/README?rev=4.25 for more info about their regression tests. Can someone with a beefy machine and time on their hands give this a shot under Wine? Presumably you'd build everything with msvc, then run the tests under Wine. Warning: ACE is huge, and will hurt your head if you're not prepared.

WineHQ redesign - DONE
by Jeremy Newman 25 Mar '03

25 Mar '03

The hard parts are done. The site is live. Time to party like its 1999! Thanks to all those who helped me with this undertaking. The new site was months in the making with most of the hard work in the last few days. Dimi, when I see you, I owe you a beer. Alright, back to my real job. /me wonders if Jer notices how long I spent on this. :-) -- _ _ WebGeek/SysAdmin CodeWeavers -= http://www.codeweavers.com | \| |_____ __ ___ __ __ _ _ _ -= http://www.dracowulf.com | .` / -_) | | / ' \/ _` | ' \ -= mailto:jnewman@codeweavers.com |_|\_\___|\_/\_/|_|_|_\__,_|_||_| -= ICQ: 1711553 Yahoo: laxdragon

[ANN] Wine @ SourceForge
by Dimitrie O. Paun 25 Mar '03

25 Mar '03

Hi folks, Some of you probably know that we had a wine project at SourceForge for a long time, but not much was done with it. Recently, we decided to transform it into our official download site: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6241 It currently hosts source tarballs, support files, and binary packages for FreeBSD, RedHat, and Slackware. Check it out. We invite comments, criticism, and/or praise :). -- Dimi.

Wine Weekly news
by Tony Lambregts 25 Mar '03

25 Mar '03

It would be nice if the news page had a link to the latest WWN. I would prefer at the top of the page myself. The way it is I can only get there by reloading the home page. Also I think that it could be clearer the link back to the home page was the wine hq logo.. -- Tony Lambregts

However, I think I'd rename the menu item from "Applicatation DB" to just "Applications", that DB is rather unsightly. It's under the "Support" heading, so it should be clear enough. -- Dimi.

Hi Javier, In order to be removed, please send an email to wine-patches-request(a)winehq.org with a subject of "unsubscribe", and follow the instructions from there. Everyone else - I think it's time to update the counters on the web site. They are horribly out of date. Wine has experienced a wonderful expansion over the past year, but this means that we can no longer claim that wine-devel is 25 msg/day (more like 35msg/day on my unofficial counting), nor wine-patches 8msg/day (more like 20msg/day). This growth is really impressive, but we really need to update the counters accordingly. Shachar P.S. I have been walking around with the feeling that wine is reaching it's growth flex point (where development suddenly accelerates) for quite some time. Comparing the numbers claimed on wine-patches to the real numbers shows over 100% of growth in the amounts of fixes people send in. This shows that we are finally heading torwards the so desired beta stage..... -- Shachar Shemesh Open Source integration consultant Home page & resume - http://www.shemesh.biz/

WineHQ redesign - TODO
by Jeremy Newman 24 Mar '03

24 Mar '03

Here's whats left to be done before I can take the site live. This is a call to action. Send me any new content or changes to existing content, you would like to see on the site. - These empty pages need content. Some of the content can be pulled off the old pages, and moved to these new pages. + HowTo + Troubleshooting + Developer Hints + Sending Patches + Resources - These pages need to be updated. Dimi, I think you did some of them. Are the ones I have the latest. + To Do Lists + Supported Applications List + FAQ - These non-PHP pages need to be updated to the new design (after the update) The downside is they will not use the themes support. I may just give them a generic simple look. + Search Results Pages + Documentation That's about it. Almost there! -- _ _ WebGeek/SysAdmin CodeWeavers -= http://www.codeweavers.com | \| |_____ __ ___ __ __ _ _ _ -= http://www.dracowulf.com | .` / -_) | | / ' \/ _` | ' \ -= mailto:jnewman@codeweavers.com |_|\_\___|\_/\_/|_|_|_\__,_|_||_| -= ICQ: 1711553 Yahoo: laxdragon

See the comment at the top of the file (hint, that's why this structure has elements dw1,2,3) Now you could create a new struct for 32bit only use if you want...

[Fwd] [announce] QEMU x86 emulator version 0.1
by Lionel Ulmer 24 Mar '03

24 Mar '03

Hi all, People wanting to experiment running Wine and X86 programs on PPC could try to test this. Be warned that it's not very polished on PPC yet. This implements what was discussed here (being that to run Wine/X86 on PPC it's better to run all user space emulated). Lionel PS for mailing list moderators : Fabrice bcc'ed the wine mailing list Saturday but as the mail did not appear today, I am forwarding it, so you may reject his original mail if he still is in the moderator queue. ----- Forwarded message from Fabrice Bellard <fabrice.bellard(a)free.fr> ----- Date: Sun, 23 Mar 2003 21:46:47 +0100 From: Fabrice Bellard <fabrice.bellard(a)free.fr> Subject: [announce] QEMU x86 emulator version 0.1 To: undisclosed-recipients: ; Hi, The first release of the QEMU x86 emulator is available at http://bellard.org/qemu/. QEMU achieves a fast user space Linux x86 emulation on x86 and PowerPC Linux hosts by using dynamic translation. Its main goal is to be able to run the Wine project on non-x86 architectures. Fabrice. ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Lionel Ulmer - http://www.bbrox.org/
