Re: Change threading defaults on FreeBSD

If you build both, then you need a way to decide which one will be used. That's not the sort of detail we want to have users worry about. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

DllOverrides
by Rich Gilson 14 Apr '06

14 Apr '06

I'm looking at what is done in Winetools (no, this is not another WineTools discussion ;-) ) as far as the DllOverrides and it has generated a few questions. Here are a couple of lines from the wt-config.reg file: "*"="native, builtin" "*autorun.exe"="native,builtin" "msi"="native, builtin" "odbc32"="native, builtin" Can somebody explain the lines with an *? Does the "*" mean that if the driver, dll, exe in question is not listed in the DllOverrides section, that it defaults to using … [View More]

Hidden files
by Rich Gilson 14 Apr '06

14 Apr '06

Here's another question that has been spawned by looking through the Winetools code. It touches two files: ~/.wine/.no_debug_window_flag ~/.wine/.no_prelaunch_window_flag Have these been depricated or completely removed, or are they still something that would be used by Wine? If they are still used, is there a list of all such hidden files and what they do? -- -- In a world without fences, who needs Gates?

Cups printer detection in pre-built packages
by J.R. Oldroyd 14 Apr '06

14 Apr '06

I've been discussing this with the maintainer of the FreeBSD wine port. Right now, detection of libcups.so is done by the configure script at compile time. This means that pre-built packages must either pull in cups as a port dependency in order to always enable printer support, or they must do without printer support. Pulling in cups as a dependency is expensive for those that don't want it, and so cups is disabled for everyone using the FreeBSD binary packages. You need to compile the … [View More]

[gdi] bug reading/writing metafiles on sparc
by Eric Frias 14 Apr '06

14 Apr '06

Due to little-endian/big-endian differences, winelib on Sparc can't read windows metafiles generated on a PC (or on Wine on x86), and conversely PCs can't read metafiles created on a Sparc. It looks like there are a few ways this could be fixed, and I wanted to make sure we don't go about it the wrong way (and that nobody else is working on it). I think the right thing to do is make the on-disk and in-memory formats always be little-endian. We would only convert the data to big-endian … [View More]

Re: Eliminate dependency on Fontforge
by gslink 14 Apr '06

14 Apr '06

As I see it, Fontforge was never the problem. The problem was that it was necessary to read the code to find out that there even was such a dependency. This was especially true of the Red Hat binaries. There was no notice or documentation that they would use Fontforge. I didn't find out until I started playing with Fontforge and had Wine crash as a result. It doesn't make any difference what the Wine dependencies are if: 1. They are documented. 2. I can find the dependent programs.

Things That Doesn't Work Too Well With DxGrab=Yes (tm)
by Molle Bestefich 14 Apr '06

14 Apr '06

Hi. Hope I do not spam too much. Things That Doesn't Work Too Well With DxGrab=Yes (tm) ============================================= 1.) Grabbing isn't disabled when I switch to the KDE menu with CTRL-ESC. (I was trying to start ksnapshot.) 2.) Grabbing isn't disabled when I switch (to ksnapshot) with ALT-TAB. 3.) Grabbing isn't disabled when I start the Campaign Editor in Starcraft, which is a separate application launched in windowed mode in maximized state. Even though the … [View More]

tasklet - sfd2ttf - eliminate dependency on FontForge (for anybody who's interested)
by Mike McCormack 14 Apr '06

14 Apr '06

Hi, Wine's build time dependency on FontForge is causing a bit of a problem, as can be seen by browsing the wine-devel archives for the last month. I propose that a small sfd2ttf utility be written and used instead of FontForge to eliminate the dependency, and make everybody a little happier. George Williams, the author of FontForge, is happy for us to use his code under LGPL, providing that we give the correct attributions. He'd probably like to sign off on the final code though. … [View More]
