This is the worst of both worlds. Either use Tabs throughout so that a tab equals an indent and so people can set the tab size to whatever they like or else don't use tabs at all and use explicit spaces. (The usual argument for using tabs relates to the fact that they line up with proportionally spaced fonts but I don't think that worries us does it; I almost always use a fixed font for code display). I would argue in favour of using tabs for indent if it were not for the fact that we already have an enormous amount of code that doesn't and I doubt if we would refuse code that didn't. > > 8 char indents (as used by netbsd) to tend to leave you trying to > pretify code in about 16 colums sometimes. > Made more likely if your style involves 2 indents for a switch > statement, eg: > switch (...) { > case ...: > break; > > David > > -- > David Laight: david(a)l8s.co.uk > > Bill Medland

Winelib Apps page
by Jeff Smith 27 Nov '02

27 Nov '02

Dimi, I like the idea of color-coding the apps for their status. But if you are going to change the background, you need to change the foreground as well. Many browsers make links blue or red (and other colors for 'active' and 'visited' links) by default. In some cases, these clash with the background (blue on red). In others there is not enough contrast (blue on grey). Please find colors that work well and integrate that info into your stylesheet. My vote is for black for all. For example (please note that this is untested, so I may have indicated the wrong attribute for this case): .todo {background-color: red; color: black} -- Jeff S _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail

Personally I work hard at using four space indent and no tabs at all. (I have experience of working with a lot of code maintained by some people who work with a four-space tab and some who work with 8 and so am fed up with having to keep swapping between two settings. Therefore I try and avoid tabs.) However my own opinion is that one should fit in with the existing local conventions. You are right; provided everyone sticks to 8-space tabs then it doesn't matter. But if one only uses spaces then it doesn't matter one way or the other. I merely offer this as a suggestion for people to consider. Bill

Since Alexandre has to approve each patch we get a slightly larger "turnaround" time for "obvious" fixes like the one this thread is about. So why not have a special CVS tree (or perhaps branch of the current tree) for Winelib users where anybody of the regular Wine developers could check in "obvious" fixes for immediate use. Lets impress even more people of our quick response. :-) While this perhaps is 1. Perhaps something CVS is unsuited for (but Alexandre said we might switch to Subversion eventually). 2. Perhaps something that should wait until post 1.0 it might be worth discussing.

Whither SwitchToThread()?
by Sean Mitchell 27 Nov '02

27 Nov '02

My apologies if this is the wrong list for this question... it seemed the most appropriate on the list. I'm doing a proof-of-concept for my boss to demonstrate that we can port a large-ish application developed on Windows (using mostly crossplatform libraries like wxWindows, STLport, Xerces) to Linux using winelib to cover a few WIN32 API calls we've made. I've just started into it, and have compiled a dozen files so far, but ran into trouble with the thread code. I cannot find SwitchToThread anywhere, not even in the winbase.h header file I expected it in. There are some changelogs to indicate that it exists, and the symbol does live in libntdll.dll.so, but I cannot find a header file that defines it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

MS MediaPlayer
by Rajesh Akkineni 27 Nov '02

27 Nov '02

Hi all, Just today i have joined the mailing list. I hope i can find solutions for my problems here. Actually i am working with MS MediaPlayer (v7 I think). When i try that progam with debugger, the program is stopping with some 7 to 8 hreads running..and all the threads are stpping in the method "ConnectNamedPipe" When I have searched the MSDN about it..i came to know that it will return only when one of the two methods("CreateFile", CallNamedPipe") are called. I have kept a Break point on the "ConnectNamedPipe" and the program is stopping at that medhod.. But when i tried to set a BreakPoint in "CreateFile" and "CallNamedPipe" it dose not find the method in any of the DLLs. In which DLL the both methods are present? Why i am not able to find their definition to set the BreakPoint. How to make the program to procede further?? Any one working on the same program? (MS Media Player) thank all for any help, Rajesh __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable. Sign up now. http://mailplus.yahoo.com

Good to know that now... what about other native Linux libraries (like wxgtk, stlport, boost) than might link with pthreads? Am I in for big trouble here? Surely other projects using winelib must be threaded? Sean

Announce: Vstserver, vstlib, vstladspa and k_vst~
by Kjetil S. Matheussen 27 Nov '02

27 Nov '02

VSTServer V0.0.1. ----------------- First release. Beta, but usable. ABOUT Vstserver is a wine program that must be running when using programs using vstlib. Vstlib is a library that can be used by programs to run windows vst audio plugins under linux/freebsd/i386solaris/etc. RUNNING Vstserver is started like this: "wine vstserver.so". You probably want to set the "VST_PATH" environment variable pointing to your plugins first. DEVELOPMENT Vstserver is released under the GPL, and vstlib under LGPL. If there comes many source-contributions, I will probably make it a sourceforge project. To use vstlib in a program, look at the tests/exampleclient program, and various vst plug-in documentation. The interface to the vstlib consists only of two functions (new/delete), the rest is like you would do when programming for windows, macos(X), beos, irix, etc. CURRENT STATUS Vstserver seems to be very stable. I have not found any plug-ins that wont run, and I am not able to hear any latency. And plug-ins does not seem to cause more cpu-power than under windows. No GUI or graphics-support yet. BUGS 1. When running the ladspa "listplugins" program many times in a row, I get the following errors before the server freeze: err:local:LOCAL_GetBlock not enough space in GDI heap 01f7 for 24 bytes err:region:CombineRgn Invalid rgn=0000 err:local:LOCAL_GetBlock not enough space in GDI heap 01f7 for 24 bytes err:region:CombineRgn Invalid rgn=0000 err:local:LOCAL_GetBlock not enough space in GDI heap 01f7 for 24 bytes err:region:CombineRgn Invalid rgn=0000 err:local:LOCAL_GetBlock not enough space in GDI heap 01f7 for 24 bytes err:local:LOCAL_GetBlock not enough space in GDI heap 01f7 for 24 bytes err:local:LOCAL_GetBlock not enough space in GDI heap 01f7 for 24 bytes err:local:LOCAL_GetBlock not enough space in GDI heap 01f7 for 24 bytes err:local:LOCAL_GetBlock not enough space in GDI heap 01f7 for 24 bytes err:clipping:CLIPPING_UpdateGCRegion hVisRgn is zero. Please report this. I dont know what this is. Its not errors coming from the vstserver program. It seems to be related to X, allthough no graphics is used in the vstserver. I hope its just the buggy libXrender.so library that wine shouts about each time it starts. 2. Shared memory handlig might be faulty. I suspect that it doesnt free resources. (see server/shmhandler.c) 3. I havent read the vst plug-in documentation yet, and dont know everything about it. This especially goes for the "AudioMasterCallback" function, which for now just returns 1. I guess some more work needs to be done in this area, and for the various dispatch opcodes too. 4. The processReplacing function in vstlib should perhaps be made just by calling the process fuction. But I dont understand the difference between processReplacing and processing. FUTURE Add GUI and graphics support to the server (help wanted). And maybe make a DX-plugin server. (would be fun running pi-warp under linux). CREDITS vstserver and vstlib are made by Kjetil S. Matheussen / Notam. k.s.matheussen(a)notam02.no Some programming hints is gathered by looking at the pd vst-object plugin~ source and the jack soundserver source. vst ladspa plugin v0.0.1 - alpha --------------------------------- Makes vst plugins located in $VST_PATH appear as ladspa plugins. I'm not sure how well this one actually works. The northpole plugin seems to work, but others don't. Oh well, its alpha for now. k_vst~, a Pd tilde object for hosting VST plug-ins. --------------------------------------------------- This is really just the plugin~ source made by Jarno Seppänen, but with a few lines changed (very few that is) to make it work with vst-plugins using the vstlib. The name was changed from plugin~ to k_vst~ to avoid nameclash with the plugin~ object running ladspa plugins. This object is for i386 non-windows (ie. linux/freebsd) only. This one works very well! ------------------------- vstserver, ladspavst and k_vst~ are open-source programs made at Notam / Oslo, and can be downloaded from from http://www.notam02.no/arkiv/src/ --

Help needed - CreateScalableFontResource
by Shachar Shemesh 27 Nov '02

27 Nov '02

Hi list, We have in Israel a lawyer who has cought on to the idea of open source, and is helping "The Cause"(tm) here quite a lot. As part of his activities he is wants to demonstrate a Hebrew law and precedance lookup program at a conference on Dec 2nd using Wine, and he asked for my help. When trying to run the program, I get the following error: sun@sun:~/c/PD_OR/EXE$ LANG=he_IL wine PDWIN G Could not stat /mnt/fd0 (No such file or directory), ignoring drive A: err:fixup:NE_LoadSegment No implementation for USER.485, setting to 0xdeadbeef err:fixup:NE_LoadSegment No implementation for USER.485, setting to 0xdeadbeef err:fixup:NE_LoadSegment No implementation for USER.485, setting to 0xdeadbeef err:fixup:NE_LoadSegment No implementation for USER.485, setting to 0xdeadbeef err:fixup:NE_LoadSegment No implementation for USER.485, setting to 0xdeadbeef err:fixup:NE_LoadSegment No implementation for USER.485, setting to 0xdeadbeef err:fixup:NE_LoadSegment No implementation for USER.485, setting to 0xdeadbeef err:fixup:NE_LoadSegment No implementation for USER.485, setting to 0xdeadbeef err:fixup:NE_LoadSegment No implementation for USER.491, setting to 0xdeadbeef fixme:win:stub_USER_490 stub fixme:font:CreateScalableFontResourceA (0,"C:\\PD_OR\\FONTS/AMIR____.FOT","C:\\PD_OR\\FONTS/AMIR____.TTF",(null)): stub fixme:font:CreateScalableFontResourceA (0,"C:\\PD_OR\\FONTS/AMIRBLD_.FOT","C:\\PD_OR\\FONTS/AMIRBLD_.TTF",(null)): stub fixme:dialog:MSGBOX_OnInit task modal msgbox ! Not modal yet. The application then goes on to display a error message saying (In hebrew) "The fonts for the application could not be found, please reinstall...". The fonts are indeed available in C:\PD_OR\FONTS as TTF files. It seems the application calls CreateScalableFontResource, and then tries to register the fonts. Copying the TTF fonts to the fonts directory did not solve this problem. I am looking for some solution, even a workaround, that will solve this problem for me. I have contact with the application's developers, and they are very interested in getting this to work (not interested enough to actually install Linux, but they are interested enough to answer technical questions about the app). My questions: A. Is there any way I can patch Wine to fool the app into thinking that part succeeds? Or is performing this test necessary, for some strange reason, in order to use the TTF fonts? B. It MAY be possible to ask the developers to actually modify their code to a moderate degree, in order to get this app to work. Is there anything in particular I can ask them? C. Is anyone working on this API? I don't know the first thing about font files and resources, and while I CAN learn, is someone with already existing knowledge can do something about it, it would be much preferable. Thanks, Shachar

Getting DirectX emulation to work
by David D. Hagood 27 Nov '02

27 Nov '02

Since I can no longer get OpenGL textures to work under Wine, I'd like to try to get the DirectX emulation working. However, when I configure an app to use DirectX, I get a "You have selected a mode your graphics card does not support" message. Since the color depth and resolution are the same as OpenGL settings that work (save for the hosed textures), I would think this should work. Are there some magic registry entries that need to be created?

Incidentally, should I open a bug for this, or is it already committed to the tree? Cheers, Sean

very nice site. but there is one ( very ) small i would like to see. i think colors should represent the status of winelibs mozilla has a yellow color ( but does not run ) once a prog runs ( putty ) it should be green ( or some other color ) this way we can easily see what works and what does not perhaps we could include a link to the project website as well ?

tools/wpp, ppdebug
by Tapio Kautto 27 Nov '02

Hi! I'm trying to compile recent versions of wine with Debian Sid. My compile stops in wpp saying that variable ppdebug is not defined. I added line int ppdebug=1; in wpp.c, and it compiles. Am I missing something, or is this a bug? Thanks, Eleknader

Re: Coding standards

> I found a couple that used ~4space indent, and used tabs too (they > seemed to expect 1tab = 8, as the code looked neat in a standard text > editor). Probably vi with autoindent, tabstop=8 and shiftwidth=4 (my preferred indent). More fun can be had arguing over whether to do: if (...) { ... } else { ... } or: if (...) { ... } else { ... } or: if (...) { ... } else { ... } If you have a paper listing you definitely need '} else {' on a single line. Otherwise you lose track of the control flow when reading it. (Never mind that you get many more lines on a page/screen.) Of course the opening '{' for a function MUST be in column 1. A coding standard really ought to discuss namespace usage and pollution. Any reasonable layout is usually ok. (OTOH I much prefer that tab stops be at 8 character intervals.)

Performance issues
by João Alfredo 27 Nov '02

Hello people, How can i improve performance in GUI applications under wine? I have a cobol application here made with microfocus netexpress and I can see the button icons reloading every type I refresh the screen. I'm using wine from CVS with a PIII 900Mhz redhat 7.3 box.

Wine app
by Fabian Cenedese 27 Nov '02

27 Nov '02

Hi I came across this page: http://www.unrealized.com/references/ "Unfortunately we have no information on running UnrealEd in Linux. Perhaps someone has had success running it under WINE? If so, please let us know about it so we can get more information for others trying to run UnrealEd on their Linux box." So I guess they would like to hear if someone had success and would also put a "works with wine" on their page once it's running. bye Fabi

Run .bat files
by Fabian Cenedese 27 Nov '02

27 Nov '02

Hi I found out that I can't run batch files directly. It gives me "cannot determine executable type". Maybe there is a possibility to start it right away with wcmd or wineconsole. The problem is that it must also work if a running app calls the batch files with CreateThread. Could it be a solution to add a new type to MODULE_GetBinaryType and then start a console with the batch file argument? If this is already too late, is there another possibility inside wine? Would it work if I change the call to CreateThread("cmd file.bat")? But then it has to work on all Windows95, NT and wine (command.com, cmd.exe, wcmd). Thanks bye Fabi

Problem in winemaker
by Sylvain Petreolle 27 Nov '02

27 Nov '02

Trying to debug the cygwin installer that isn't able to reread where it saves the pakages, I wanted to compiler the installer as Winelib. running 'winemaker .' in setup source dir fails when analysing IOStreamProvider.h, at line 1193 in winemaker. I attached the file. ___________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? -- Une adresse @yahoo.fr gratuite et en français ! Yahoo!
