Going forward with fixing up tests failing because not run on visible desktop.
by Jakob Eriksson 23 Dec '04

23 Dec '04

Followup on tests failing because they are run as an invisible service on Windows: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now that we have bRunningOnVisibleDesktop=0 in the report, how do we make use of it? Do we mark on the server side which tests fail because of it, or should we add a flag to the ok() macro? I would like to have the information stored in the test code somehow. It would document implicitly which functions only work in visible mode. If we had a global variable named "running_on_visible_desktop", we would have code like this in the tests: if (running_on_visible_desktop) { ok(EnumEnhMetaFile(hdcDisplay, hMetafile, emf_enum_proc, dx, &rc), "EnumEnhMetaFile error %ld\n", GetLastError()); } Or we could mark them like this: expect_to_fail_if_running_on_visible_desktop { ok(EnumEnhMetaFile(hdcDisplay, hMetafile, emf_enum_proc, dx, &rc), "EnumEnhMetaFile error %ld\n", GetLastError()); } Where expect_to_fail_if.... should do some magic... regards, Jakob

Looking for a Wine consultant

I am sending this message for a friend of mine. I am the head of a company that is trying to migrate a VB6 system on WinNT to Linux. We would like to use this application under Debian Sarge using Wine. If you have experience in porting VB6 applications using Wine and have some free time to consult with an in-house developer it would be greatly appreciated. We would like to get the project up and running as soon as possible. If you are interested please get back to me at pyadegar(a)honeymae.com as soon as possible. Thanks.

Why not? This isn't ReactOS, ntoskrnl is just another DLL from the SafeDisc perspective. Its implementation details shouldn't matter.

Changes in the design won't change anything in the concept. Stefan

Yeah, a link to http://codeweavers.com would be appropriate. You might want to link to a list of vendors who are willing to help update Wine to work with particular apps and contribute the fixes back to the winehq tree per the LGPL, e.g. http://codeweavers.com http://www.macadamian.com http://www.itomig.de Itomig's a newcomer, but what the heck, they seem to be interested in helping the Wine community. (Also maybe Transgaming, but I don't know if they're willing to work on the winehq tree anyore). - Dan -- Trying to get a job as a c++ developer? See http://kegel.com/academy/getting-hired.html

The correct approach for the crash in _LocalServerThread is to use table-strong marshaling once and then copy the contents of the stream to the pipe for each iteration in the loop, instead of marshaling each time. The correct approach for the crash in _StubReaderThread is to make it execute in the correct apartment - either by sending a window message to the STA window or by joining the MTA. I believe you had a patch for this in July or August when we last worked on this. Rob

I think you are covering the appropriate mailing lists. If you'd like to chat in real-time about hacking appdb, channel #winehackers on irc.freenode.net is a good place. Tony, Jon and myself are frequently there and chat at least every other day about appdb related things. About the templates, is this what Jeremy did in the lostwages archive(www.winehq.org/cvsweb/lostwages)? I wasn't too familiar with the changes he made and thought it would be good to discuss things prior to making such large changes to the appdb code. Anything that improves the design is more than welcome.
