SoC idea: Get Mono working well enough to run simple apps
by Dan Kegel 24 Mar '07

24 Mar '07

There are lots of little bits, some pretty basic, which Wine is missing before it can support mixed assemblies in Mono. For instance, http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7098 says that we're missing an implementation of mscoree.dll.CorBindToRuntimeEx. This would probably be a fine area for an SoC project.

Wine SoC idea: get your favorite IDE working
by Dan Kegel 24 Mar '07

24 Mar '07

As the CEO of a famous operating system company once said, "I have four words for you: developers, Developers, DEVELOPERS, DEVELOPERS!" ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMU0tzLwhbE ) Attracting more developers (not of wine, but of their own apps) to Linux by getting their IDEs running on Wine would be great for wine, as developers are more likely than the average user to file bug reports or (dare we hope) fix bugs. So it would be good to get popular IDEs working on Wine. Newer Microsoft IDEs like Visual Studio 2005 are a challenge, Visual Studio 2005 express requires BITS (which is a SoC project in itself, http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5054) Some IDEs run fairly well if you install DCOM98, in which case you would write conformance tests exposing the problems in our COM implementation so Rob can fix them :-) Older IDEs like Visual C++ 6 and Visual Basic 6 are in this category. cf. http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4931 http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5321 And then there's Eclipse, Delphi, Turbo C++, IntelliJ, Powerbuilder, Access, Visual Fox Pro, and many others. There are also specialized IDEs like AVRStudio (an IDE for embedded developers) which people want to run in Wine (see http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5312). Picking one or two of these and focusing on getting its problems solved might be very useful. - Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv

Mixing xyzw with rgba and stuv only obfuscates things. Also, the vec4 contructor is unecessary, you should use proper swizzles instead.

RE: xcopy / cmd question (lack of real exe in system32)
by Alexander.Farber＠nokia.com 24 Mar '07

Hello Jason, I'm just curious: xcopy.exe is an external program in Windows, but you want to make it a builtin command in Wine?

SoC Idea: Improve video support
by Alexander Nicolaysen Sørnes 24 Mar '07

24 Mar '07

I really want to participate in Google's Summer of Code, but I realize I don't have much time left to find a suitable project. What I am thinking of is to improve Wine's capability of playing videos in games, first by fixing mciavi so it can play the Worms 2 intro films (bug 4256), and then hopefully progessing to fixing bugs in quartz/devenum, like crashes in Worms Armageddon or playback in WMP9. Is this too ambitious considering that I don't really have much experience with C and Wine? The closest I have gotten is some patches for Wine's WordPad implementation. Regards, Alexander N. Sørnes

Re: Winebot
by Remco 24 Mar '07

Will winebot be a win32 app or a linux app? Making it a win32 app and developing it on Windows would probably reveal more Wine bugs. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for earth-friendly autos?

SoC idea: Tablet PC support (was: pressure sensitive tablet support)
by Dan Kegel 24 Mar '07

Seems like it could be a fun project > for some Summer of Code student. Update: wintab32 is already implemented in Wine, but there's a new API being pushed by Microsoft for Tablet PC applications. So the idea is instead "Get Tablet PC applications working on Wine", focusing on Tablet PC apps that offer pressure sensitivity, say. (I thought that FIrefox's GeckoTip extension used the new tablet PC APIs, but after looking at the source, I'm not so sure... I'm sure there are lots of good demo apps somewhere.) This assumes that Tablet PC apps don't yet work on Wine. I haven't tried... the place to start is probably to get the Tablet PC SDK (a free download if you have Windows) and start playing with it. - Dan
