autorun perhaps dangerous (Was: Wine release 0.9.53)

This will probably give some fallout ;) I wanted to write earlier, but did forget about it over the last days. For my grown Wine installation this now starts: - 2 instances of a Windows Worm - Google Talk (not working) - Skype (crashing) - pccam.exe from some digital camera disk - the annoying Steam.exe auto-update and ask-for-subscription dialog - perhaps more and this even on "make check" :( We probably need some tool to edit Run and RunOnce entries now. Ciao, Marcus

Status of d3d in a child window?
by Mark Hatsell 16 Jan '08

16 Jan '08

Hello All I was just wondering what the status was of D3D in a child window. Looking back at the release info it seems that the OpenGL in a child window has been sorted and that D3D has been converted to use WGL. Is this not enough to get D3D in a child window going? I have tried the mfctex sample but it draws the D3D child window in slightly the wrong place and doesn't render anything at all. I have also tried a couple of other apps which also exhibit similar behaviour. Just wondered what else needed fixing before this would work? Thanks Mark

Since it seems from your description that the users don't need to share a copy of the registry, the solution is probably to do what Picasa for Linux does, and just put symlinks to the installed files into each user's .wine directory. You will need to write a little script that starts the app after creating these links. You can see how to do this by installing Picasa and looking at /opt/picasa/bin/wrapper, it does exactly this. - Dan

Towards Zero Test Suite Failures
by Dan Kegel 16 Jan '08

16 Jan '08

On my machine, we've been hovering between five and ten test suite failures for some time (see http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9916 ) IMHO one of the hallmarks of 1.0 should be reliably getting zero test suite failures. That would make regressions stand out like sore thumbs instead of requiring developers to diff results before and after their changes, and might result in fewer regressions getting committed. How 'bout folks spend some time tracking the current six odd failures down and cleaning them up? - Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv

This will break the relocation of the main exe. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

I am having problems with a bunch of three games that came together in the same pack. They all abort qhen asking for installation with the following line wine: Call from 0x73ba1895 to unimplemented function GDI32.dll.NamedEscape, aborting Does anybody know what GDI32.dll.NamedEscape does? Does anybody intend to implement it in the near future?

Re: advpack: Skip some tests if not in interactive mode because they pop up dialogs.

(Probably, for non interactive mode only)

SVN usage for Wine
by James McKenzie 15 Jan '08

15 Jan '08

Because git is unstable on the Mac platform, I've been utilizing a little time investigating the use of either SVN or CVS to download .git updates. This appears to not be working per the Wiki pages for SVN. Is CVS or SVN still being supported for Wine or is git the only supported download (I don't expect to do any patching for now) method for .git updates? Thank you. James McKenzie

re: Tools: Spelling fixes

Firstly, it's not a spelling problem; secondly, in England, it's correct to consider a set of something plural. The rest of the changes in this patch seem ok. - Dan
