Re: [Bug 6689] Created links do not reflect WINEPREFIX used
by Lei Zhang 05 Feb '07

05 Feb '07

Setting the Exec= line in a .desktop file to: WINEPREFIX=foo wine bar worked in KDE. In Gnome, it works if "run from the terminal" is set. Unfortunately the Freedesktop spec for desktop entries does not specify a way to add environment variables. So yes, it looks like we'll need a wrapper script, or perhaps add a --prefix option to Wine?

Detect screen resolution change errors
by Francois Gouget 05 Feb '07

05 Feb '07

When I run the dlls/d3d9/device conformance test on Windows in VMware, I get a trace telling me that IDirect3D9_CreateDevice() failed and returned 0x8876086c. This seems to be because Windows has trouble changing the screen resolution when running in VMware (though it's perfectly capable of doing it when I go through the control panel). But when I run the test in Wine I'm getting a test failure because: * IDirect3D9_CreateDevice() did not change the screen resolution * but it returned success so that the screen size checks fail That's because XRandR fails to change the resolution (for whatever reason, it's irrelevant here). Wine detects that but does not report the information to the upper layers. So I have made a couple of patches: * the first one detects when XRandR, XVidMode or some low level routine fails to change the screen resolution, and propagates this so ChangeDisplaySettingsEx() returns an error * the second one modifies IWineD3DDeviceImpl_CreateAdditionalSwapChain() so it detects when ChangeDisplaySettingsEx() propagates that error upstream too Now the dlls/d3d9/device test succeeds on my machine (all while loudly complaining something is wrong): [...] err:xrandr:X11DRV_XRandR_SetCurrentMode Resolution change not successful -- perhaps display has changed? fixme:d3d9:IDirect3DDevice9Impl_CreateAdditionalSwapChain (0x1c4358) call to IWineD3DDevice_CreateAdditionalSwapChain failed fixme:d3d9:IDirect3D9Impl_CreateDevice (0x171448) D3D Initialization failed for WineD3DDevice 0x174ee8 device.c:741:could not create device, IDirect3D9_CreateDevice returned 0x8876086c device.c: 245 tests executed (0 marked as todo, 0 failures), 0 skipped. I have attached the relevant patches. Does this look ok to the DirectX gurus? -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)codeweavers.com

skipping incompatible libwine build problem.
by Matthew Watchinski 31 Jan '07

Hopefully this is the right mailing list to ask this. If not please point me to the correct list. I have a simple application that use to build just fine using libwine/wine-0.9.30 on ubuntu edgy 32-bit. I just upgraded to a 64 bit system and got wine-0.9.30 installed and working, however, now my application doesn't build. uname -a: Linux ebx 2.6.17-10-generic #2 SMP Tue Dec 5 21:16:35 UTC 2006 x86_64 GNU/Linux When i run make everything builds correctly but it won't link and it exits as follows: wineg++ -c -Wall -Wextra -Wwrite-strings -Wcast-align -Wsign-compare -pedantic -m32 -mno-cygwin -municode -mconsole -Wb,--exe -Wb,-w -DCOMMAND_LINE -DWINDOWSNATIVE -DBUILD_CLI -o simpleapp.o simpleapp.cpp wineg++ -c -Wall -Wextra -Wwrite-strings -Wcast-align -Wsign-compare -pedantic -m32 -mno-cygwin -municode -mconsole -Wb,--exe -Wb,-w -DCOMMAND_LINE -DWINDOWSNATIVE -DBUILD_CLI -o simpleappList.o simpleappList.cpp wineg++ -mwindows -mno-cygwin -municode -mconsole -o simpleapp.exe.so simpleapp.o simpleappList.o -lodbc32 -lole32 -loleaut32 -lwinspool -luuid /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/local/lib/libwine.so when searching for -lwine /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/local/lib/libwine.so when searching for -lwine /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/local/lib/libwine.so when searching for -lwine /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lwine collect2: ld returned 1 exit status winegcc: g++ failed. make: *** [simpleapp.exe.so] Error 2 Everything in /usr/local/lib looks right to me. ebx:~/Downloads/cvs/sfeng/research/tools/doccheck$ file /usr/local/lib/libwine.so* /usr/local/lib/libwine.so: symbolic link to `libwine.so.1.0' /usr/local/lib/libwine.so.1: symbolic link to `libwine.so.1.0' /usr/local/lib/libwine.so.1.0: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped And the makefile is pretty simple The only lines I've modified from the original winemaker Makefile are these: CXXFLAGS = -Wall -Wextra -Wwrite-strings -Wcast-align -Wsign-compare -pedantic -m32 #CXXFLAGS = CEXTRA = -mno-cygwin -municode -mconsole -Wb,--exe -Wb,-w CXXEXTRA = -mno-cygwin -municode -mconsole -Wb,--exe -Wb,-w RCEXTRA = INCLUDE_PATH = simpleapp_exe_LDFLAGS = -mwindows \ -mno-cygwin \ -municode \ -mconsole I assume I'm missing some magic ld switch, but I'm not sure what.

What version of Wine? There were recent changes in APC handling in wine-0.9.30 (and perhaps 0.9.29) that may have broken this. If you can verify that this worked ok in earlier versions like 0.9.27, that would help. Alexandre is the expert on this. He's on vacation but he'll want to take a look when he gets back. - Dan

Usually the MSVB6 installer for the application (created with the Package and Deployment Wizard) takes care of this, but installing MDAC 2.x works too (I have installed MDAC 2.8). Wine currently provides no replacements for ADO libraries or objects, so doing either of these options is mandatory. It seems that you are trying to connect via ADO and ODBC. You should first have an Unix ODBC driver installed, since the ODBC support in Wine is simply a pass-through layer to the Unix ODBC support in the system. If you are compiling Wine from sources, you should (for example) have *both* unixODBC and unixODBC-devel RPM packages installed (or the equivalent bundles in SUSE). Otherwise, Wine will be compiled without ODBC support. You should then create (in unixODBC, not Wine) an ODBC data source for your database of choice, and verify (/usr/bin/isql) that you can actually connect and read data from it before trying to do anything from within Wine. Also, please note that Wine (currently) only supports as much ODBC as the underlying ODBC support does. In particular, the following syntax: > Set oConexion = New ADODB.Connection ... > oConexion.Open ConnectionString:="Driver={Microsoft Access Driver > (*.mdb)};DBQ=..." in which the driver is specified within curly braces, is *NOT* supported under Wine, nor is any variation of this method. You must specify a data source that appears in your ODBC configuration file in /etc/odbc.ini . Of course, you might just bypass the ODBC layer and do something like this: > Set oConexion = New ADODB.Connection ... > oConexion.Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" > oConexion.Properties("Jet OLEDB:Database Password") = > "somepassword" > > oConexion.Open ConnectionString:=App.Path & "\" & DATABASE_FILE This method works as long as all the corresponding providers (which are also ActiveX objects) are correctly registered. In this way, no ODBC code is involved and the Windows code directly manages the database connection. However, all the necessary providers and drivers must be installed by your application installer (again, the Packaging and Deployment Wizard should take care of these dependencies). Hope this helps.

While reviewing your patch in bugzilla I overlooked that you have added a check for (e.type == KeyPress) X11DRV_ToUnicodeEx as well. There is no need for that, we explicitly set e.type = KeyPress there. -- Dmitry.
