Wine 0.8: VB compatibility !!
by Andreas Mohr 08 Nov '02

08 Nov '02

Hi all, I keep encountering people mentioning that VB stuff has lotsa problems on Wine. While I really can't say that I like VB, a lot of people seem to use it for critical tasks in companies on a daily basis, so it sounds like perfect VB compatibility would be utterly important. IMHO improving that should be a goal of 0.8.

Huge speedup to wine ReadFile on small packets
by Hannu Kotipalo 08 Nov '02

08 Nov '02

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi! The only program I use at windows on home is wzebra, a windows based reversi game (http://www.nada.kth.se/~gunnar/othello.html). (linux version coming, but it's binary only :-() Unfortunately current wine version needs over 10 minutes time to start the program! In windows, starting time is just a few seconds. I found out that the source of the delay was a database file (opening book file), which wzebra reads in by a few byte packets. Fortunately wzebra itself measures the time needed for the readout. Since wine has a lot of overhead for opening and closing unix filesystem for every packet, the delay is understandable (but not acceptable!). Of course, buffering helps. I made a Quick-and-dirty 1k buffer for just ReadFile - routine and database readout dropped from over 800 seconds down to 12-13 seconds! (On my 200 Mhz Pentium Pro) I think this should be fixed in a more sophisticated way, so I did not yet post my patch. Also, this patch helps only on this particular problem; reading a file by small packets with ReadFile. However, I noticed that wzebra reads even bitmaps on byte by one... Don't know how usual this is, thought. In addition, I do not have too much time for playing with this. If someone is interested in continuing my work, please mail me, I can reply by sending the patch.

wine.texinfo
by Vincent Béron 08 Nov '02

08 Nov '02

Is it normal that I cannot find a rule to build wine.info from wine.texinfo in the Makefiles? The file seems to still be worked on (last change september 20th), but I must build it with makeinfo manually (or add it to the spec file). Vincent

Searching mailinglists
by Sam 08 Nov '02

08 Nov '02

I was wondering if it would be possible to add a search feature to the mailing list archives, while we're doing the WineHQ redesign ? I think that would be a very useful feature, for both, new and old developers. Or perhaps there is already a search available, hidden somewhere out of sight? :-) sam(a)pcuf.fi

user.reg and winedbg
by steve.lustbader＠philips.com 07 Nov '02

07 Nov '02

They key in user.reg that controls whether winedbg pops up in its own window or in the shell in which wine was started seems to be getting ignored. When I set "UseXTerm"=dword:00000000, and run my app, it crashes and brings up winedbg in a separate window. When I look at user.reg again, UseXTerm has been set back to 1. The reason I need this is because when my app crashes, the backtrace is so long (~40 frames) that I can only see the bottom (mostly useless half). Is there a way to increase the size of the winedbg window, pause bt's output (like piping to more in a shell), or display only part of a back trace? -Steve

Before doing so, though, I just want to check what that means. I presume that this means moving the "Getting Wine Source code from CVS" section. I wonder if that is exactly what we want. Are we trying to avoid scaring beginners and non-programmers? If we basically mean that the user Guide will not talk about getting the source and compiling it on your own machine then we might as well also move "Getting Wine Source Code from the FTP archive" and "Upgrading Wine with a patch" If we basically mean that we suggest that the user be able to build from source but only from the FTP archive versions then do we really need the "Upgrading Wine with a patch" If we support the user being able to build from source but don't want to scare them then all we need to do is drop the talk about changing the code and diffing (and maybe adding a little more hand-holding to the cvs section a la dummies guide). Also if we go towards the "build from source" we are going to have to address little issues like the tendency not to install the compiler these days. My suggestion is that, since we are talking about fairly stable releases, we ought to move all the sections concerned with building from source. Guidance please. Bill

Sure, I know that (I'm working on DPMI32 which isn't for standard mode Windows programs), I was probably being a bit unclear about what I was wondering about. It is quite difficult to find any information about Win32s nowadays and everything I have found was suggesting that Win32s was for running Win32 applications on Win16. Since Wine does run Win32 applications directly it just made me wonder whether Win32s support is something that was once needed when Wine only had Win16 support. But, since I know very little about Win32s, I can only wonder. It all depends on how Win32s applications differ from Win32 and Win16 applications. The existence of Win32s dlls seems to suggest that Win32s applications are not regular Win32 applications as well as the text in "msdos/vxd.c" which talks about some strange pointer mangling required with Win32s applications. This mangling is probably something that is only required if Wine supports official Win32s dlls. Which makes me wonder if Win32s dlls provided by Wine actually do work because they don't seem to do any pointer mangling. Well, it could be that Win32s applications do this pointer mangling internally. Anyway, I seem to have answered myself. If Wine is going to support Win32s applications using both builtin and official Win32s dlls, it needs pointer mangling. I just have to figure out how the required offset can be accessed from multiple dlls because I would really like to have all the interrupt handlers in one place. I still think that all the tricks required in order to support official Win32s dlls are quite ugly: all the routines that use linear addresses and are called directly by Win32s applications need to do pointer mangling and msdos/vxd.c actually modifies the official dlls in order to work around some problems. But since this most likely works already, I don't think I want to change anything. -- Jukka Heinonen <http://www.iki.fi/jhei/>

For the benifit of those people, I am posting the latest README file that I have uploaded to tsx-11... The Wine project for linux is an attempt to write something with similar functionality to the WABI that was developed by Sun. The basic goal is to be able to take a MS-Windows binary and run it under Linux with X-Windows running. The finished product will essentiaily consist of two parts: a) A program loader, which will load the Windows binary into the virtual memory of the linux process, provide a means for adjusting the ldt of the processor so that the 16-bit segments that are typically used with Windows binaries will work correctly, and provide a means for calling the Windows binary in the first place, allowing the Windows binary to call back to the 32-bit mode program, and finally allow the 32-bit mode program to call back again to the Windows binary (i.e. Windows callbacks). In each case, the arguments being passed wil have to be pulled from the appropriate stack and loaded on to the other stack (there will be a 16 bit and a 32 bit stack). Finally some application specfic DLL libraries will have to be loaded, and dynamic linking will have to be performed. b) The second part of the finished product is an emulation library, which takes calls to Windows functions, and somehow translates these into calls to X11 in one fashion or another, so that equivalent functionality is achieved. It should be pointed out that the Windows binary will be running directly - there will be no need for machine level emulation of the instructions. Sun has reported better performance with their version of WABI than is actually achieved under MS-Windows - theoretically the same result is possible under linux. The project got started as a result of discussions on comp.os.linux in early June of 1993. A mail channel was set up for discussions, and this directory was created. At the moment, all of the files that are uploaded are in the private directory in a hidden directory. The reason for this is that the program is really only of use to developers right now. Once something is ready for public consumption, it will be uploaded to a publicly visible directory. The final product will almost certainly be under the GNU Public License (or GPL for short). If you are interested in getting involved in this project, join the linux activists' WABI channel. If you have never joined a channel before, send mail to linux-activists-request(a)niksul.hut.fi. It will reply with a help message. New releases are approximately every Tuesday. All releases are announced to the WABI channel. Also, I will do my best to answer any question mailed to me. My address is "bob(a)amscons.com". *************************************************************** Status Report - September 3, 1993 Windows Solitaire is barely playable for the first time today. Special thanks go to Alexandre Julliard, Eric Youngdale, David Metcalfe and Peter MacDonald for their work on this project. If you live near one of these people, buy them a beer. It looks like the Linux kernel modifications are nearing completion. Hopefully the next Linux kernel (0.99.13 ?) will not require patching to run Wine. The loader portion is nearing completion. Sample Windows binaries are loaded correctly into memory, dynamicly linked and so forth. The 16/32 bit call interface is fairly complete. There are still a few features that remain to be added before it can be considered "done", but it is at the point where it is actually useful. Resource loading is only partially complete. A very minimal version of the emulation library has been merged with the loader. Windows can be created, DC's may be used, bitmaps are handled, text drawing is implemented, and a preliminary implementation of menus has been created. Bugs are still present in many of the implemented functions, but things are starting to look up. -- Bob Amstadt bob(a)amscons.com -- Send submissions for comp.os.linux.announce to: linux-announce(a)tc.cornell.edu

Please don't let me distract you from your important work, but Thomas Wickline asked me to stop in and say hello to all of you. I understand that we are approaching the 10 year anniversary of Wine. That is a remarkable feat. All of you should be proud to be contributing to this effort. It is an amazing piece of software. Though many of the names I see on the WineHQ web site are new to me. I continue to see Alexandre Julliard's name on this work. I had the pleasure of meeting Alexandre many years ago and I am so glad to see that he continues the work after so many years. Alexandre, if you read this, thank you very much for all that you have done for free software. Thank you to the rest of you as well. Wine has been a team effort from the start and is so successful because it is a team effort. When I stepped down from leading this project, I knew it would continue due to the efforts of all the people that have helped along the way. It not only has continued, but it clearly thrives. I'm amazed at the number of people that know what Wine is. Congratulations to all of you Wine developers. You are amazing people. ----- Bob Amstadt http://www.amstadt.com/~bob bob(a)amstadt.com

IDL/header issues
by Ove Kaaven 06 Nov '02

06 Nov '02

Now WIDL is good enough to generate a drop-in replacement for Wine's wtypes.h (attached) from a suitably crafted Wine-compatible wtypes.idl (also attached). I've included all the definitions that were already in Wine's wtypes.h (but I was too lazy to do everything that's in Microsoft's wtypes.idl yet). What do you think, is this good enough to go into Wine? Are there some desirable changes to widl or wtypes.idl? And should IDL files go into the main include dir along with the other Win32 headers? IDL-generated files would also eventually obsolete all the current wine/obj_*.h files, but those obj_* files seem to be somewhat more logically structured than MS's own IDL files, should we craft Wine's IDL files accordingly, and maybe have some top-level .idl files in include/ and some sub-.idl files under include/wine/, like it's done now in e.g. objidl.h? Note that I will work on ReWind, not directly on Wine, so I probably won't be able to submit massive "change all files to include this instead of that" patches (that apply to Wine) with any new files.

The tests compiles fine (except for ntdll if the Microsoft headers are used). Some fails on Windows when running, but I haven't had time to look at it very much. As for the normal dlls: Well some compile most don't. Quite a lot of work remains. However the compilation instructure generated by msvcmaker work quite well, so if anybody want to help they can. I have a lot of kludges in my MSVC tree so you might run into some problems though...
