For inclusion in wine please send diffs against the wine code rather than some zipped sources. And I am not sure if pascal is allowed in wine. C or bash scripts are better. > The idea behind this program is the following: > A program compiled to run on MS Windows calls a number of system/program > libraries. > This tool enables to know which functions a program compiled for MS > Windows needs.

That a function is implemented in wine does not necessarily mean that it is free of bugs. In most cases applications do not run because of bugs in the implementation rather than missing functions. > TODO: At this point, you are able to know the calls.

There are some other issues too: I don't speak pascall, but can your program deal with lazy linking, i.e. functions loaded after startup with LoadDLL? And I think you will not be able to read COM interfaces. For example for Direct3D9 you will see only one call, CreateDirect3D9, although d3d9 has numerous interfaces with a few hundred methods.

DirectX related question

Already looking at buying a new computer to play Supreme Commander (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supreme_commander), is there anything I can do (including, but not limited to purchasing hardware) to help get this game running under Wine? I can't promise miracles, but if I can break down a few obstacles, consider it done. --tim

Re: user32: WM_NCACTIVATE sent by set_active_window() should never deactivate

Re: user32: add test cases for update rects affected by ShowWindow

After looking at this test once more, I think we need another test with windows without CS_PARENTDC style set in order to understand better what the proper behaviour is. -- Dmitry.
