Re: winetest updates

So I guess for automatic testing we use -q. Would be nice to have another parameter, say -a bob(a)corp.com to specify the email address of the guy running the program. This way, we have something to (1) identify the output, and (2) to contact them in case of problems. This would be useful for people donating boxes to the test pool, they would specify the email only once. Or maybe we should read it from the registry? Or both? -- Dimi.

ListView oddity
by Fabian Cenedese 18 Feb '04

18 Feb '04

Hi I had a problem with the ListView control. I could circumvent it by changing (correcting?) my application. But I thought I'd still report it. I have an MFC-app which uses a CListCtrl-derived list. In the OnRButtonDown handler of my class I didn't call the baseclass handler from CListCtrl. Upon release of the right mouse button the context menu would appear on Windows. That's how it worked. On wine I can see that the LISTVIEW_RButtonDown function is never called. Understandable as I didn't call the base class. But in this handler is a flag called bRButtonDown which would be set to TRUE. In the corresponding handler LISTVIEW_RButtonUp this flag is again tested. As it was never set in my case the handler never sent the WM_CONTEXTMENU message. What is this flag for? Is this to detect drag'n'drops with the right button or something like that? As my app worked on Windows I guess it's not necessary that the ButtonDown handler is called as in wine. Or this flag should be set earlier and not in the (maybe not called) down handler. Or it could be cleared from mouse move messages, don't know. As I said I corrected my app to always call the base class handler and so it works now. But that's a difference to Windows that may need to be changed sometimes. I wonder why it worked on Windows anyway :) Thanks bye Fabi

News releases on the sf page
by Ivan Leo Murray-Smith 18 Feb '04

18 Feb '04

Dimi, the "latest news" on the sf page is "wine-20031212 released", all new news is also put up on the sf main page, until it isn't pushed out of the way, so it might help stats to update the news section at every release, so people going to the sf.net home page would see a nice link to the news, and from there could go strait on to the download page.

regedit : exporting keys
by Vincent Pelletier 17 Feb '04

17 Feb '04

I'm curently working on #824 bug (\0 character is added to REG_MULTI_SZ registry values) and while hunting it I found that regedit uses it's own function to write to a file instead of using the RegSaveKey API. Although it shouldn't solve the bug, it should be interesting to use the API. I also got 2 bugs with the export function : - the "save as" window got a square shape, not a rectangle (right side cuted, down one too downward) - regedit always exports the whole hive, not only subkeys & values Vincent Pelletier

What about applications that need 32bit DIB's?
by Willie Sippel 17 Feb '04

17 Feb '04

Hi. Some months ago I found a Windows application that needs 32bit DIB's to work properly, or else the interface looks completely destroyed. Setting X to 15 or 8 bit makes Wine crash in that case, 16 and 24 bit leads to a scrambled interface. So, given that Windows uses (assumes) 32bit depth, and X won't handle more than 24bit, why not always assume 32bit depth when X is running on 24bit (and report this to Windows apps) and convert the DIB's to 24bit later, without the applications noticing? I think there are some other applications that work with 16 or 32bit, but not with 24 bit - this should make them work, too (Propellerhead's Reason for example, I think)... I would try to do something like this myself, but I'm afraid my limited PHP knowledge won't cut it. ;-) The application mentioned is Mirage by Bauhaus Software, a demo can be found at http://www.bauhaussoftware.com . -- Willie Sippel <willie(a)zeitgeistmedia.net> [ z ] !

Who's Who
by Brian Vincent (C) 17 Feb '04

17 Feb '04

I have a preview available of the new Who's Who: http://users.theshell.com/~vinn/whoswho.html Some notes: - the formatting is a little rough, that's on my own to-do list - if you don't like what it says about you, please let me know what I can correct. - if your name isn't followed by a description of anything it means I'm either contemplating making up a unique and interesting story about you or removing you from the list. If either of those appeal to you, let me know. If neither appeals to you, please send me a short description about yourself. - I may have your "Location:" wrong. Please let me know. - Some of these were taken off the existing one - so they may be completely outdated. If so, let me know what's wrong and I'll try to fix it. - If you're simply not on the list it's probably not because I don't like you. It's probably because I'm a slacker. Send me something about you and I'll fix it. --------------- Brian Vincent Copper Mountain Telecom vincentb(a)coppercolorado.com

gnome systray
by grant williamson 17 Feb '04

17 Feb '04

Hi Mike, not sure you have time for this, I have noticed one nutty issue using the systray patch on gnome. With Lotus Notes 6.5.1 when you receive a mail an envelope appears on the systray(That is correct). If this appears when you are in the same workplace there is no problem, however if you are in a different workplace, and you double click on the systray icon you Lotus Notes desktop is resized to 20 wide by 768 long, rather odd. This occurs in 12112, 0123, 0213 releases. Is there any debugging I can do, to show you what is happening? grant williamson <traxtopel(a)fastmail.fm>
