Re: Get rid of W->A calls

> Let us know if you need any help. Just to be sure I got it right, I moved the DirectDrawEnumerateExA stuff into DirectDrawEnumerateExW since there is nothing ascii or unicode specific in it I think it's ok on it's own now in DirectDrawEnumerateExA I have these variables: LPDDENUMCALLBACKEXA lpCallback pointer to a callback function, the DirectDrawEnumerateExW get a LPDDENUMCALLBACKEXW (not match a suprise I guess) so do I need to convert it? just cast it as (DirectDrawEnumerateExW)? something else? LPVOID lpContext Address of an application-defined context to be passed to the enumeration callback function each time that it is called when they called from W -> A they did: DirectDrawEnumerateProcData epd; epd.lpCallback = (LPVOID) lpCallback; epd.lpContext = lpContext; and sent in as: (LPVOID) &epd Should it just be sent as is? DWORD dwFlags I assume it should be passed as is, for some reason the opposite call sent 0 Hatky. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: [winecfg 5] Implement transactions support, remove some crack x11drv prefs, complete desktop sizing code

Yeah, we should create a table with all the options, and keep track of wich ones were review, default values, static/dynamic behaviour, etc. I said I'd do it, but I didn't get around to it yet... -- Dimi.

WIDL problems
by Rolf Kalbermatter 05 Sep '03

05 Sep '03

I'm trying to get a new shell object into Wine and seeing that most of the object definition stuff has recently been moved to IDL files I wondered if I could define the object in shobjidl.idl. However I seem to get some problems compiling shobjidl.idl with with widl. I tried ./tools/widl/widl -I ./include ./include/shobjidl.idl and get an error. To be sure it wasn't caused by my editing I made sure the entire include dir is an unmodified version of the CVS tree and tried it there and I still get the error ./include/shobjidl.idl:426: Error: method index mismatch in write_proxy What is the problem here? Should I just sent in the patch to shobjidl.idl and the header file gets generated automatically with some more capable tool? By the way I noticed also that IPersistFolder3 got probably overlooked when moving the definitions to idl files. Rolf Kalbermatter

I think the confusing thing is the 'w' prefix. In this case 'w' stands for WORD, i.e. a two-byte integer. Also, MSDN isn't clear as to whether it is encoding independent but I would assume so. > > -hDest = FindWindowA("MS_WINHELP", NULL); > > +hDest = FindWindowW("MS_WINHELP", NULL); > > You can't to that directly, as we don't support > Unicode literals.

It allows for better optimization by the compiler (assuming that the compiler can't work out that clsName will not be modified) and shows the purpose better to the next person who looks at it. Rob

Looking for guidance..
by Jon Brandenburg 05 Sep '03

05 Sep '03

Hi, I'm interested in doing some development/help for wine and was wondering in what way I could help out? I have a college level understanding of C/C++/Java, have done some professional programming in (ack, VB), am currently in the process of learning C#, but would really like to do some development in unix/linux and I figure this is a good way to get some experience. I'm willing to do whatever needs to be done, but I do have as I'm sure most of you have, other projects/assignments/obligations which I'm sure the rest of you have also. If you could give me a bit of direction on an area of the project that needs some attention and perhaps a little bit of hand holding to begin with I'd like to help out. Thanks! Jon

WineHQ
by Ivan Leo Murray-Smith 05 Sep '03

Hi list, A guy that lives in my town found me via the linux counter, and we would like to translate the wine web site to italian, I was thinking of something like microsoft, with a drop menu of languages, where one can choose the destination language. This guy is also a really good web designer, and I could give him a hand as I'm a native english speaker and I could answer any emails we may get on an italian users mailing list, can we do this? Would a flag be better than a drop menu? any ideas/sugestions welcome.

Re: Display detection bug
by hatky 05 Sep '03

05 Sep '03

> What about rather a coding / debugging frenzy ? I considered them both but they are very hard to do for me for a known reason, Documentation. I read them all + a lot of the mailing lists but still do not know where to start with all of this even in the debugging, getting the trace of a certain component is not that easy because there is no place listing them I need to guess if it's +reg or +registry for example, there are places where it's match harder (ex display stuff).... About coding it's even harder since I do not know a lot about linux and in programming for linux for a first, the list of tasks is updated very slowly and usually not very clear to outsiders, the Janitorial list that is suppose to be the easiest is not very clear about what to do and is full of junk already done, not updated very frequently and also has stuff that the gurus here are working months on them (like dll separation) so how does a Janitorial suppose to do that? Don't get me wrong, I am not trying to say anything bad about you or the project or the rest of the wonderful people working on it, but as I see it the reason others programmers do not join it or at least I don't is becouse you do not make this task easy at all, if anyone would want to turn this around and try to pass some of this knowledge I am willing to learn and document (I am not a writer and my primary language is not English...) just to get the view point of a new programmer (ok I HAVE been watching this project for about 4 years but did not get active as a programmer). Ya, this is not a constant signature, sincerely yours, Hatky. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Get rid of W->A calls
by hatky 05 Sep '03

05 Sep '03

Janitorial reporting ;-) In the Get rid of W->A calls task, Say I try dlls/ddraw/main.c: ddraw: DirectDrawEnumerateExW: illegal call to DirectDrawEnumerateExA The misbheaving function is : HRESULT WINAPI DirectDrawEnumerateExW( LPDDENUMCALLBACKEXW lpCallback, LPVOID lpContext, DWORD dwFlags) { DirectDrawEnumerateProcData epd; epd.lpCallback = (LPVOID) lpCallback; epd.lpContext = lpContext; return DirectDrawEnumerateExA(DirectDrawEnumerateExProcW, (LPVOID) &epd, 0); } What sould I do? 1. copy the entire DirectDrawEnumerateExA into it 2. create a 3rd function DirectDrawEnumerateEx that both of them will call 3. somthing else (you tell me) Hatky. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Case sensitive in wine
by Fabian Cenedese 05 Sep '03

05 Sep '03

Hi I just sent an email about a file that isn't found -> Current Working Dir. I don't know if my next problem is related to it, just mentioning it. I tried another app which needs dlls and again I had the error that the file was not found, this time from wine. But the dll sure was in the fake c:\windows\system32. Just as a wild guess I made a copy of this dll and changed the case to all upper case as was the name wine told me. And miraculously the dll was found. So it seems that even while doing "Windows work" wine sometimes behaves case sensitive. FYI: Linux is Suse 8.0, wine is 20030813 (which makes me wonder as I made clean/distclean the old one, cvs up wine, configure, make depend, make, make install... and I never had a wine-rpm) bye Fabi
