is WIDL a sutable replacement for microsoft MIDL?
by Jonathan Wilson 24 Dec '04

24 Dec '04

Could WIDL be used alongside MingW to generate IDL files on windows? What changes, if any, would be needed to WIDL to get it working on win32 and compiling IDL files in a way that MingW can use? Does MingW have enough of the OLE header files for WIDL to work? Having an IDL compiler for MingW would be a very usefull thing for those doing COM development IMO.

The situation with fpos_t is even worse. Both VC++ (Win32) and Platform SDK (Win64 part) define it as follows (stdio.h): #ifndef _FPOS_T_DEFINED #undef _FPOSOFF #if defined (_POSIX_) typedef long fpos_t; #define _FPOSOFF(fp) ((long)(fp)) #else /* _POSIX_ */ #if !__STDC__ && _INTEGRAL_MAX_BITS >= 64 typedef __int64 fpos_t; #define _FPOSOFF(fp) ((long)(fp)) #else typedef struct fpos_t { unsigned int lopart; int hipart; } fpos_t; #define _FPOSOFF(fp) ((long)(fp).lopart) #endif #endif /* _POSIX_ */ #define _FPOS_T_DEFINED #endif -- Dmitry.

YAY! Great work guys, wonderful Christmas present :) Now I suppose I should fix the launcher creation problem. Then the only one left is the black sky bug but like you said, it's likely to be a driver issue. thanks -mike

Re: wine/dlls shell32/shlfileop.c shell32/shlexec. ...
by Christian Costa 24 Dec '04

Hi Michael, This is typically the kind of patches that breaks everything. The code you find useless, is often use in lazy allocation or error handling. I doubt the current wine code is so bad designed even if there is some cases where the test is useless. For example in memallocator.c, this is wrong because you can release the allocator even before allocating the memory with the SetProperties method. Looking at your other patches, there is some changes that seems suspect to me (in winmm and directx). I think, this kind of cleanup should be done very carefully by understanding what the code really does. Morever, sending large patches that involves several dll makes it appears as obvious cleanups which they are not. Bye, Christian PS: Alexandre, please, could you remove all theses patches ?

Interface for working directories/launchers
by Mike Hearn 24 Dec '04

24 Dec '04

Hi, Wine currently creates launchers (.desktop files) with an Exec line like this: Exec=wine 'c:\games\supreme\supreme.exe' But, some games expects to be run from its working directory. As working directory typically doesn't matter to UNIX apps, some desktop environments like GNOME don't let you set it. Really, this is a Wine specific issue. So I'm wondering how we should fix this. The most obvious is a way to tell Wine to change the working directory to the path of the EXE file before running it, but we can't introduce command line switches any more and an environment variable for this doesn't make much sense. My proposal is to have a new winelib app "winemenulauncher" which simply takes the working directory, program and arguments, and runs the program but switching current directory first, ie the menu entry would look like: Exec=wine winemenulauncher c:\games\supreme supreme.exe Hopefully this should let us fix the case of games like Dungeon Keeper which actually crash when run from their install directory. Does this sound sensible? thanks -mike

Why would we change it. I think it just clutters up the source without adding value. PHP is a variable-type decleration less language. We often just change string in booleans without thinking about it. And I think I'm just lazy. I don't like typing more characters. What are your argument for it? Paul
