DRIVE_GetUnixCwd and drives other than the current one
by Troy Rollo 12 Aug '03

12 Aug '03

It appears that Wine is storing and using a "current directory" for each DOS drive. According to some testing we have just done on Windows 2000 and Windows 98, Windows only stores a current directory for the current drive. "But CMD.EXE seems to remember drives, and their children too", comes the reply. Well, sort of. The documentation for CreateProcess talks about environment variables used to hold the current directory for each drive, with an environment variable with a name of the form "=C:" having the value, say "C:\WINDOWS". That documentation suggests you must make sure all these environment variables are set if you construct a new environment block, and that you need to get the values of them using "GetFullPathName". Shock, horror, the Windows documentation is wrong. What actually happens is that CMD.EXE and COMMAND.COM independently set those environment variables when you change directories in those shells. SetCurrentDirectory has no effect on those environment variables - either in the current process or in child processes. It is the responsibility of the application to set them if it wants the children to have access to its current directory on drives other than its current drive. However, SetCurrentDirectory("D:") (assuming a starting point of drive "C") will read those environment variables to determine which directory of drive "D" to go to. You can even 'SetEnvironmentVariable("=D:", "\\foo")' to make the next 'SetCurrentDirectory("D:")' end up in "D:\foo". GetFullPathName also picks up the environment variable if the path requested is not on the current drive (although it also checks that the path is valid, so 'GetFullPathName("A:\\", ...)' will rattle drive A if drive A is empty). If there's no environment variable, both GetFullPathName and SetCurrentDirectory assume "x:\". If the drive in question is the current drive, SetCurrentDirectory and GetFullPathName both ignore the environment variables and use the value from GetCurrentDirectory. So, for example: // Start with no "=D:" variable in environment SetCurrentDirectory("d:\\bar"); SetCurrentDirectory("c:"); SetCurrentDirectory("d:"); // Current directory now d:\ SetCurrentDirectory("d:\\bar"); SetCurrentDirectory("c:"); SetEnvironmentVariable("=D:", "\\foo"); SetCurrentDirectory("d:"); // Current directory now "d:\\foo"; SetEnvironmentVariable("=D:", "\\bar"); SetCurrentDirectory("d:"); // Current directory still d:\\foo The Borland C++ run-time libraries have code in their chdir functions that sets these variables, but it's inside a "#if 0" section, presumably reflecting an attempt to be compatible with MSC. I'm not aware of anything that relies on this perverse behaviour, so whether Wine needs to be adjusted to mimic it may be an open question. It is probably of more interest to people who want to pass an environment block to CreateProcess. If you're doing that, ignore what the documentation says about including "=C:" & etc environment variables in the environment block - simply start with the environment block returned by GetEnvironmentBlock and make the desired changes, ensuring the block is sorted according to instructions I gave previously on one of the Cygwin mailing lists.

can't redirect stdout?!
by Dan Kegel 12 Aug '03

12 Aug '03

OK, so with the normal X11 driver, you can no longer redirect stdout from commandline apps under Wine; the output just vanishes if you try to send it to a file. That's rather unacceptable dain bramage, if you ask me. - Dan -- Dan Kegel http://www.kegel.com http://counter.li.org/cgi-bin/runscript/display-person.cgi?user=78045

Re: dlopen libncurses.so in wineconsole

Mike McCormack wrote: > > This patch doesn't include changes to configure. Run autoconf to > regenerate it... several comments to this needed patch: 1/ in configure.ac why not checking also for curses if ncurses isn't present ? BTW, you can also remove the ncurses library lookup in configure.ac, we no longer need it. 2/ in curses.c some of the functions we use in curses.c can in fact be macros in some curses' implementations. According to my doc, this includes initscr, intrflush, nodelay, noecho. So, you could pass LOAD_FUNCPTR a boolean not to fail if the symbol is not found (for those functions), and not #define initscr to p_initscr if initscr is already #define:d > + if( !WCCURSES_bind_libcurses() ) > + return FALSE; you'd better return init_failed from the enum instead of a boolean here A+ -- Eric Pouech

Is wine a debugger?
by Dan Timis 12 Aug '03

12 Aug '03

I am trying to load a security Windows dll that does not run under a debugger. When I load the dll I get a SIGTRAP, and then wine breaks in its debugger. My understanding is that if I run wine as opposed to winedbg I am not running under a debugger. But, if there is a crash or some other exception wine will start a debugger. I sent some memory dumps to the developer of the security dll, and he said that it behaves like it was running under a debugger. He's question was something like does wine have an always "on" debugger? I would appreciate any help. Thanks, Dan Timis Muse Research, Inc.

bidi support test program
by Shachar Shemesh 12 Aug '03

12 Aug '03

Hi all, Attached is a simple program to test whether the Win32 API supports BiDi reordering. Some packagers asked me for such a utility in the past, so they can make sure that their inclusion of ICU worked, and without forcing them to actually understand languages that are all Hebrew to them. I'm not sure whether it would be necessary to include this utility inside the Wine soure, or how to do so. This is not exactly a test, as a failure is totally justified under some circumstances.

Threading experts?
by Jason Edmeades 11 Aug '03

11 Aug '03

Hi, I seem to have found a recreatable threading problem and I am not convinced it it wines fault either. Are there any experts here who want to offer any advice on where to go to persue this please? Problem: 'wine appname' hangs when it creates one of its threads. The hang is inside pthread_create and control is never returned to the caller Environment uname -a returns kernel 2.4.21-0.13mdk, and its basically Mandrake Linux 9.1 with no updates. Wine is cvs as of today, configured with --with-nptl More info: Looking through an strace, I can see a difference between a working and failing case, and it would appear there is a timing issue inside the pthread routines. However, I would normally expect it far more likely that it is a wine bug than a kernel / threading bug, so I dont really know how to proceed. I can recreate this about 95% of the time with one app and one app only, so I really suspect it to be a wine problem, but I just cant see why. Here's a working case =============== (Note SY3 and SY4 are fixmes I added each side of the pthread_create) 394 issues a create thread. [pid 394] write(2, "fixme:thread:SYSDEPS_SpawnThread"..., 38fixme:thread:SYSDEPS_SpawnThread SY 3) = 38 [pid 394] rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, NULL, [RTMIN], 8) = 0 [pid 394] write(12, "\240@4@\0\0\0\0\230,s@\240\177\v@\0000\20J\0\0\0\200\0"..., 148 <unfinished ...> : 398 is the pthread thread manager thread [pid 398] getppid() = 394 [pid 398] read(10, "\240@4@\0\0\0\0\230,s@\240\177\v@\0000\20J\0\0\0\200\0"..., 148) = 148 [pid 398] clone(child_stack=0x4a102bd0, flags=CLONE_VM|CLONE_FS|CLONE_FILES|CLONE_SIGHAND|0x21) = 400 : It wakes up 394 to indicate it can continue [pid 398] kill(394, SIGRTMIN) = 0 : [pid 394] <... write resumed> ) = 148 [pid 394] rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, NULL, [RTMIN], 8) = 0 [pid 394] rt_sigsuspend([] <unfinished ...> *** sigsuspend gets back a SIGRTMIN to wake it up.

Dmitry wrote: I may be wrong, but according to the information posted to one of our support forums, support for NPTL was backported from 2.5 kernels by RedHat, and nobody else has support for NPTL in 2.4 kernel series.

Unable to print from wine
by Peter Stokes 11 Aug '03

11 Aug '03

Hi I downloaded the Mandrake wine-20030709-mdk9.1.i586.rpm and my main issue is still printing from an old 16 bit app. The previous MDK version 20030618 allowed me to pick a printer and select a print format. It then proceeded to print to my CUPS default printer with some of the information it was supposd to print, but not in the correct page size (lost the header and footer info off of the top/bottom of the page). This time when I try to pick a print format I get the following wine: Unhandled exception (thread 000a), starting debugger... err:seh:start_debugger Couldn't start debugger ("debugger/winedbg 8 112") (2) Read the Wine Developers Guide on how to set up winedbg or another debugger The app then completely hangs. So how do I use the debugger to get some useful info for you to look at? Thanks Peter

Wine CVS Build Error

I'm trying to get Wine and/or Winex to build on my system with no luck. I get the same error in both releases, I was hoping someone would know how to fix this, or what I am doing wrong. I'm using GCC 3.2.3 and kerenl 2.4.21 on a Linux From Scratch distribution.

The pureness is about reentrancy, though it maybe necessary so that two parsers don't have conflicting global variable names.

This is a very trivial problem, the rest of the uninstall works, and (If it's there) the game directory is deleted successfully, so one only has to delete the script by hand, but it would at least look good if this was fixed before 1.0
