Borland linker and VirtualQuery
by Vassilis Virvilis 08 Jul '02

08 Jul '02

Halo, The attached patch (resurrected from) wine-users through google searching fixes indeed the borland command line tools (version 5.5.1 freely downloadable on the internet). Given that I am not familiar with the win32 API, this patch looks hackish and special cased (admitted also by its author, Gerard Patel) but still it is too useful. Since this question has never surfaced to wine-devel I would like to ask what is required for the patch to become acceptable. If it is something doable I will give it a try, otherwise I will file a report in the wine bugzilla database. Any way thanks in adavance. .Bill

Question about --debugmsg +snoop
by Massimo 08 Jul '02

08 Jul '02

Is there a way to activate +snoop only for selected dll ??? I think that would help me to find AutoCAD 2000 access violation on startup, isolating the dll where it happens. As stated few msg before, it starts up good with +snoop, but it crashes on very beginning without +snoop. Regards Max

warcraft 3
by Bobby Bingham 08 Jul '02

08 Jul '02

After buying Warcraft 3, and reading on the mailing list that the beta had worked under wine, I decided to try the final version under wine. It installed fine, but won't run. Or rather, when I try to run it, it prints this out, and just sits there: fixme:cdrom:CDROM_GetIdeInterface CD-ROM device with major ID 11 not supported fixme:cdrom:CDROM_GetIdeInterface CD-ROM device with major ID 11 not supported fixme:midi:OSS_MidiInit Synthesizer support MIDI in. Not supported yet (please report) I don't know much about the various debug messages, but if I run it with --debugmsg +relay, i see thousands upon thousands of lines like this: 0809c7f8:Call ntdll.dll.RtlEnterCriticalSection(403e0534) ret=40bf1e46 0809c7f8:Ret ntdll.dll.RtlEnterCriticalSection() retval=00000000 ret=40bf1e46 over and over, with these occasionally interspersed: 0809c7f8:Call kernel32.dll.GetTickCount() ret=40bf2013 0809c7f8:Ret kernel32.dll.GetTickCount() retval=00001f07 ret=40bf2013 now, how would one go about debugging this. It doesn't seem as convenient as just crashing in one specific function and bringing up the debugger ... Thanks, Bobby Bingham

Re: Apps that installs VBA
by Massimo 08 Jul '02

08 Jul '02

Looking in wine dir (~/c/windows) I found the 'missing' fsivba.dll. I think it should have been placed in ~/c/windows/system, or system32, not in ~/c/windows... I think there's again some problem with path handling or something like that, as it was with missing '\\' in the system.reg files some times ago. That problem caused also misplacement of some files, because of the malformed path. Regards Max

RE: WINE
by Steven Edwards 08 Jul '02

08 Jul '02

I'm forwarding a copy of this to wine-devel and reactos-kernel. The way that I have been doing it is to work out of the WINE tree to and submit changes back to them. I try to take a snapshot of the current WINE tree every few months and that then becomes the -stable branch for ReactOS. If there is a bug in the ReactOS wine any patch needs to be wrapped in a #ifdef __REACTOS__ that way it will be easy for us to submit patches back to wine. The long term goal is to make all of the WINE dlls upgrade able at anytime. So if you have a idea about a better way to do it then please let me know. Our branch is a little odd because it was not tagget right when they first committed it to CVS. It doesnt really matter to much about the version numbers though because we know where changes have been made on the ReactOS side by the #ifdefs.

Apps that installs VBA
by Max 07 Jul '02

07 Jul '02

Installing AutoCAD 14, I get everytimes an error telling that VBA (visual basic for applications) cannot be installed (the messagebox tells a very very meaningful 'error 18' (sigh) and aborts VBA setup). As I've seen that someone is working on visual basic apps (maybe Ann and Jason Edmeades ?), does someone have an idea of the solution ? Regards Max

No, IMO this is not correct. If Windows doesn't handle NULLs, then we shouldn't either.

Wrote an graphical wine.config frontend
by Clemens Eisserer 06 Jul '02

06 Jul '02

Hi Wine-Hackers! I wrote an graphical tool to make the administrations of the config-file easier for those windosen. Currently its only an prototype and isnt very stable. Its written in Java, compiled into native-Unix-binaries and it uses java-gtk as gui-toolkit. Its nearly as fast as C++ but coding is much easier and faster. I added a screenhot, and I hope that nobody's angry about the big download-size :-( My problem is that I dontknow all the wine.config options avaible, I've just implemented all active and all not active (;) options, only the program-specific setting are still not implemented and they wont be implemented in the near future. So is there an overview avaible, which explains all the options aviable in the config? Thx , Linuxhippy

Graphical Configuration-Tool for wine.conf
by Clemens Eisserer 06 Jul '02

06 Jul '02

Hi! I'm one of two web-masters of www.linux-wine.de . Many people in our forum asked for a graphical frontend to the wine.config. And because google didnt find anything, I've just wrote a prototype. Its written in Java, is compiled to a native-Linux program via gcj and uses java-gtk as toolkit. It is nearyl as fast as a C++ program, but coding is much faster und easier. And (for all GNU-fanatics) its fully GPL-compatible.... My problem is, that I dont know all options of the config-file. Till now I only implemented the options which stands in my wine-config, including the ;-Entries. Only the specific-program settings are not iplemented, its too hard to make this part GUI-based (I'm so sorry, but my english is terrible). Is there somewhere an overview over all avaible options? Is such a tool already avaible, or an existing codebase? Please note that Jine (Jawy after the rewrite) isnt ready for use. O.K it does work, but the code is awful and I'm currently working on a rewrite. May I ask wine-questions for this tool at this list? Thx , Linuxhippy

Strange behaviour -- app starts only with --debugmsg+snoop
by Max 06 Jul '02

06 Jul '02

AutoCAD again ! After finally R14 runs fine, i'm trying with AutoCAD 2000. Setup goes ok (besides usual VBA problem). Starting with 'wine acad' gives a very early error of unhandled access violation. I tried to start it with --debugmsg +snoop to see what happened and, surprise, app starts up quite good. It then hangs much later, but that's another problem. So the question : how it's possible that requesting snoop messages bypasses the initial access violation ? I think that snoop adds only a thunk to calls on native dlls.... Any suggestion appreciated ! Regards Max

Re: The filedlg95 behaviour
by Ann and Jason Edmeades 06 Jul '02

06 Jul '02

This leads to an interesting question. The MSDN states (edited for w2k behaviour but others are teh same): Initial Dir: Pointer to a null terminated string that can specify the initial directory. The algorithm for selecting the initial directory varies on different platforms. Windows 2000: ------------- If lpstrFile contains a path, that path is the initial directory. Otherwise, lpstrInitialDir specifies the initial directory. If lpstrInitialDir is NULL and the current directory contains any files of the specified filter types, the initial directory is the current directory. Otherwise, if the application has used an Open or Save As dialog box in the past, the path most recently used is selected as the initial directory. However, if an application is not run for a long time, its saved selected path will be discarded. *****> Otherwise, the initial directory is the personal files directory of the current user. Otherwise, the initial directory is the Desktop folder. Questions... Windows has the 'personal files' directory set to My Documents - That is why when doing this patch I implemented it that way. If you are saying you would prefer the home directory to be this, then why dont we make the Personal Files registry key always point to the users home directory? We either have complete compatibility eg. files go in ~ which is the Unix methodology, but windows apps looking in \My Documents directly would work, or we can try to slightly unix-ify the windows way and use ~ as the My Documents directory. I'm not convinced a patch should be submitted unless this is addressed. I have no problems assuming my change is not 100% correct, but we dont want a bounce of patches where someone tries to swap it back later to fix a specific unix app. BTW It is not a registry key directly which changes the behaviour, moreover which version of windows is trying to be emulated by Wine at that time.

The filedlg95 behavior
by Duane Clark 06 Jul '02

06 Jul '02

I was hoping to perhaps provoke discussion of the new behavior of the file dialog. Prior to this patch: http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-cvs/2002/06/0028.html the default behavior was to start the open file dialog in the current directory. After the patch, the default behavior is to start in the C:\My Documents directory, though this can be changed with a registry key. While this is the default behavior on Windows, I am not sure that wine should copy this behavior so precisely. I personally think that the old behavior was better. I would think that very few Linux users would actually use the C:\My Documents directory. But perhaps my own preferences are coloring my views. I think the command line oriented nature of Linux would call for a occasional differences in behavior. Duane

RegEnumValueA bugs and patch in dlls/advapi32/registry.c
by Max 05 Jul '02

05 Jul '02

Well, finally found and corrected a bug that made AutoCAD R14 hang... I guess some other apps could have the same problem solved, but had no time to test more :) In RegEnumValueA, when the size for requested data buffer is too small, function should return an error (as it does), but also return correct buffer size (as it doesn't). Found in AutoCAD; it asked for a reistry key value, got error, and then looped forever trying to get val with wrong buffer size. I guess, but had no time yet to check, that this problem could happen somwhere else in Registry.c, I'll check it out next days. With this patch, finally AutoCAD R14 is perfectly usable in wine, even without a native windows installed !

You should simply do an open and check errno to find out what went wrong. Also there's no point in having a DRIVE_NO_MEDIA flag since this is a temporary condition. For the case of open succeeding with no floppy drive, I think you could handle it by checking if the subsequent read() fails. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

And this is bad as memcpy does NOT handle overlapping memory zones. Moreover, you only have the 'descending' copy order in that case and not both cases. What I had in mind in my comments to your patch was something like that : if (src != iface) Do the standard memcpy code path else if source_Y > dest_Y do the ascending memmove copy else do the descending memmove copy This way you did not hurt the common case (ie Blt from two different surfaces). Now I agree that even in the same surface case, one could add some checks to see if the rectangles overlap or not, but I do not know if it would be worth the pain as memmove should not be THAT slower than memcpy.

It looks strange to me that the function CDROM_GetIdeInterface gets called while we have a SCSI cdrom drive? Anyways, as a workaround -- I don't think this is the right solution -- I added the following line to the switch statement in cdrom:CDROM_GetIdeInterface: case SCSI_CDROM_MAJOR: *iface = 0; break; This allowed my application to proceed (don't remember which application that was though).

GRand Prix Legends network code
by Christoph Frick 05 Jul '02

05 Jul '02

Hi! I did some debugging, to find out why the game Grand Prix Legends did not work as network client/server. The problem: Its only possible to connect to servers/let clients connect from the local network. Solution: The game set (WS_)SO_DONTROUTE on the socket - and of course this works perfect under unix - but i never had problems while i played this game under windows so this is either not set, when the game runs under windows - or it has no effect within windows. Also the game like to bind the socket for the client connection a second time, when the first connection failed or was canceled. This does not work (addr. in use) - so a (WS_)SO_REUSEADDR would have been needed. Could please someone with a deeper insight in the world of windows direct me to some docu/specs or what ever to get informations about the winsock stuff? The link in the header of the dlls/winsock/socket.c is not valid. I even dont know what winsock version is the current one (1.1,2.0,???). Help is appreciated! Thanx alot! CU!

Running half-life turns X display into garbage
by Joshua Thielen 04 Jul '02

04 Jul '02

Hello, When I run half-life, the X display gets totally corrupted and the only way to restore is to restart the X server. I'm using an NVidia G-force 3 video card running at 1024x768 with 16-bit color. I have already run a few traces, but since I have no idea at what point the display gets corrupted, it's kind of hard to debug. Has anyone encountered this problem yet? Are there any specific functions or channels I should be looking at in the trace? Thanks, Josh Thielen __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Sign up for SBC Yahoo!

2 quick things on the Cygwin/Mingw port
by Steven Edwards 03 Jul '02

03 Jul '02

Hola 1. This is simple but as you guys know I have this lysdexic thing when it comes to configure. Libwine needs to import certain functions from the c library to compile, at present it is hard coded for -lmsvcrt. This needs to be changes to import -lcygwin if configure detects a cygwin host/target. I know its simple we just need to have the check in configure that sets CLIBRARY=(lmsvcrt or lcygwin) then Makefile.in in libwine needs to be changed like this: libwine.dll: $(OBJS) $(DLLWRAP) $(DLLWRAPFLAGS) --export-all --implib libwine.a -o libwine.dll $(OBJS) -lmsvcrt to libwine.dll: $(OBJS) $(DLLWRAP) $(DLLWRAPFLAGS) --export-all --implib libwine.a -o libwine.dll $(OBJS) $(CLIBRARY) 2. I was able to get Wineserver.exe to compile under cygwin when I stubbed getthreadcontext and setthreadcontext. Kernel32.dll implements these to functions so on the Mingw or Cygwin port can I import it for these needed functions?
