As a rule we avoid such version checks in Wine, they are not necessary and will only cause trouble since we compile our code with the same headers. I know there are some similar checks in there already but they should probably be removed. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

[OT] AMD64 Implications
by Ann and Jason Edmeades 17 Sep '04

17 Sep '04

Hello, Slightly off topic, but I am looking at purchasing a new PC and intend to continue doing wine development on it (especially d3d9). Is there any wine implications to buying an AMD64 compared to a 'normal' 32 bit chip. Will I be able to continue my wine development, obviously for running emulation of 32 bit windows apps (games)? Would I need to ensure I use 32 bit kernels, or can I make use of any 64 bit ones (dont know if these exist even!). Sorry if this is an obvious question, but I didnt want to go so far and find I have caused myself problems Jason

Should I install fontforge? I've been in hospital with appendicitis and haven't followed wine development recently. Ivan.

That means if you grep the file for uses of "This->ref" (or the equivalent) then they should all only be as parameters to Interlocked* functions. Rob

When making these changes please fix the rest of the function too, any place that uses This->ref directly is broken, it should use the return value of the Interlocked call instead. Otherwise there's no point in making the changes since it still won't be thread-safe. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

autoconf issues on HP-UX
by Warren_Baird＠cimmetry.com 17 Sep '04

17 Sep '04

Hi all, I'm in the process of trying to get winelib working on an HP-UX / PA-RISC machine. The first issue I've come across is related to autoconf, and I'm afraid I'm far from an autoconf guru, so I wanted to post my proposed solution here before submitting a patch. The problem is that the current autoconf tests done to determine how to link a shared library aren't very good - they use WINE_TRY_CFLAGS, which builds a c file containing something like "void main() { } " and tries to link it. The problem is that this isn't a very good test about whether you can link a *shared library* - since you've got a main line defined. Unfortunately the gnu ld doesn't work on hpux, so I have to use the system linker, and the UnixWare link test succeed when it should fail - since the HPUX linker doesn't understand the arguments it is given, it goes on to link an executable and generates a warning about not being able to hide symbol "conftest.so.1.0". I believe that a better test is to try to link a shared lib from a C file containing "void myfunc() {}" - this way if the provided arguments don't convince the linker to create a shared lib, you'll get a error about "main" being undefined. My proposed solution is to define a new function "WINE_TRY_SHLIB" that does what I describe above, and then use it in the 3 existing places we're checking for shared libs, and add a new test specifically for hpux. I've attached my proposed patch file (although I'm still trying to sort out exactly what flags I need for hpux libs)... Does this seem reasonable? thanks, Warren (See attached file: patch.txt)
