Re: FAQ: Will there be a Windows version of Wine?
by Steven Edwards 20 Aug '03

Thanks Francois, I have been meaning to update some of the docs to answer these questions for a while. You put it much better and more to the point then I would have =).

PATCH try 2 - build libwine_unicode with w32api headers
by Steven Edwards 20 Aug '03

20 Aug '03

Ok now with clean w32api headers from CVS we can build unicode. This shouldnt break cross compiling or the *nix build but if it does please let me know. Also you can change WINVER >= 0x0500 to whatever as long as it is higher. Thanks Steven Changelog: Fix building libwine_unicode with w32api headers.

Re: spec file syntax and automated generation

Hi, <disclaimer> I havent read the wine-user posts.... >1. The winebuild manpage only mentions ptr, str, wstr, long and double >as valid Win32 function argument size information - is the amount and >kind of symbols really important, or is it just the amount of used stack >space? the type is used for dumping of parameters so its good to have it right. >I am not too familiar with assembler, but I would assume the first is >right, since two arguments are pushed on the stack, each using 32bit. Correct. Logical types are irrelevant, only the physical size matters. % __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

is anyone running windows 95, windows 98, windows ME or windows 2003?
by Jonathan Wilson 20 Aug '03

20 Aug '03

If so, I need you to run some kind of PE dumper that can dump exports (such as dumpbin from MS with the /exports switch on user32.dll and gdi32.dll from your version and send me the results, along with details of which version of windows you are running. I want this info because I am compiling a list of the different versions of windows and which functions are exported by user32.dll and gdi32.dll in each version.

Its more convenient than rebooting or going to another machine > just for simple testing. Top 10 reasons you want Fox ported to Wine: 10. Windows sux 9. Microsoft is evil 8. Test windows features without rebooting (as Doug mentioned) 7. Keep development on Linux 6. Run valgrind on the Windows port 5. Make sure the Win32 part is portable to multiple implementations 4. Help find missing features/problems/etc. in Wine 3. Some people may prefer the Wine widgets to the GTK+ ones 2. wxWindows is already ported to Wine, Fox needs that too! ;) and the number one reason is: 1. It is just cool!!!

LPT1 support in DOSFS_OpenDevice
by E Lea 20 Aug '03

20 Aug '03

I'm trying to add LPT1 support to DOSFS_OpenDevice. The software that requires this functionality controls a parallel port plotter by sending LOGO-style ASCII commands. I have based my attempts heavily on the serial port support, although I don't think I really know what I'm doing. Can anyone explain to me what's required? I have tried to implement a server call to create a file descriptor to /dev/lp0 (read from ~/.wine/config) and return a handle to it, but after that (perhaps when wine starts using the handle) both the wine and wineserver processes die. I don't really understand handles and how they are used. Are more functions required other than a simple create_parallel()? How do handles work?

Nevermind. Send this patch and email to /dev/null. My w32api headers were hosed. Sorry for the noise.

rpcrt4.dll from WINE in ReactOS
by Steven Edwards 20 Aug '03

20 Aug '03

Hello, Are we going to be able to make use of WINEs rpcrt4.dll on ReactOS? I can build 99% of the dll with Mingw but am having trouble because of WINEs exception handler and a few calls to gettimeofday. If we should be able to use it then I will work on porting it when I get back from vacation on the 8th. We need a semi functioning rpcrt4 to be able to port ole32 and shell32.
