vxd support?
by Osvaldo Fornaro 22 May '01

22 May '01

Hi, I were far from the project for a while, so sorry if this topic is trivial, but I wish to use a parallel port scanner with wine. Under Windows, appears a device to treat the parallel port as a SCSI port, but is based on a VxD archive, and wine don't find it. Is there any solution to deal with VxD or not yet? Thanks in advance. -- Dr. Osvaldo Fornaro <ofornaro(a)exa.unicen.edu.ar> Universidad Nacional del Centro de la Provincia de Buenos Aires Instituto de Física de Materiales Tandil - CICPBA Pinto 399 (B7000GHG) Argentina

Question on exposing non-windows functions from dlls...
by Mike Bond 22 May '01

22 May '01

I just submitted a patch to wine-patches that provides the implementation of spawnl and spawnlp. I had been hoping to implement execl and execlp as well but found that the underlying functionality that I would need is not exposed outside scheduler/process.c. My question is what guidelines are there, if any, are there to exposing non-win functions, such as exec_wine_binary in scheduler/process.c? Also, from just a cursory glance at exec_wine_binary that I may need to wrap it to do some of the work that fork_and_exec and PROCESS_Create are doing, such as calling DOSFS_GetFullName. I'm not sure what, if anything, the server would need to know about this. -- TTFN MikeB

Then we cannot use the current code on NetBSD, otherwise we'll be eating 100% CPU as soon as an fd becomes -1. You'll probably need to do a poll() wrapper that removes the invalid fds before calling the real poll. Or you could ask the NetBSD folks to fix their implementation. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

problem starting winword 97SR2
by Heiko Nardmann 22 May '01

22 May '01

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 When starting WinWord I get a dialog saying that either I have not enough work space or memory space. The program exits then. So after playing with the debug options I found out that this happens after a key named "Office.SharedMemory.1" is accessed inside the registry. Can someone tell me what to do to make word no longer complain? BTW: I use wine 20010112 since the last snapshot 20010418 does not work on my machine (unhandled exception).

You know, glibc would also have such an interface if you used the -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compilation option. Wouldn't it be simpler to unify the 64-bit interface code by using that?

Anybody know int-31?
by Bob Goodwin 21 May '01

21 May '01

I want to run an application that requires win95 but relys heavily on DOS interupt functions. Specifically it requires interupt 31 which is just a stub in Wine. It appears (from R.B.'s list) that there is no limit on calls to interupt_31-AX=0305 (request the address of (?:the:a) save/restore handler.) That implies more than one thread could have a save/restore pointer. When calling the save/restore handler function, the only parameter passed is a byte in AL to indicate whether to save the current context or restore a saved context. My question is, are there multiple copies of the save/restore function or at least multiple entry points? It seems that this would be the only way of having multiple unique context saves. It would be differrent if a unique `handle' was returned by int_31 instead of a call address. If only one context can be stored at a time, do I need a spin-lock within the save/restore function to keep other applications holding until their turn? Thanks. Bob Goodwin

Re: Networking with Mandrake 8.0 and SuSE 7.1
by Steve Fox 21 May '01

21 May '01

This weekend I upgraded to Mandrake's 2.4.4 kernel from Cooker (since it fixed both my mouse and token ring) and suddenly this problem has gone away (using Notes 5.0.7 and wine-20010305). I'm still planning to go through Mandrake's 2.2.19 SRPM and find which patch messes things up (I can't use a Linus-only kernel because I need reiserfs). I will post again once I have narrowed down the list of suspects. I'm guessing it has to be a common patch since SuSE seems to have the same symptoms.

I guess that this one is probably because of a still incomplete implementation; what happens is : - I click in the vertical scrollbar - the text begins to scroll (for some reason this particular text is very slow to scroll) - the scroll timer expires and scrolls again the page The WM_LBUTTONUP (supposed to end this loop) is not received until 20 pages later. If I test with a text that scrolls much faster, the problem is much less severe (only one page too much). It seems to be a message order problem; before Wine had - hardware messages (mouse, keyboard) - timer Now it is - timer - hardware messages There is a nice FIXME in the new message handling around the old timer handling code, so maybe fix is pending ?

Ah, I was not understanding how the moderation is working (just read Andi's explanations on cemw). So the extraordinary delays I see sometimes on my posts to wine mailing lists are probably caused by my ISP beta testing IP on avian carriers. >(This is not the case with the >integrita archives, though, since integrita is just one of the >subscribers, subject to the whims of the MTA.)

Yes but I have a hunch that this WARN will be edited out by the Wine maintainer anyway. You'll notice that in similar cases there are never warnings in Wine code; this is not because Wine coders are lazy, it's because the Wine maintainer thinks it's a bad idea to add warnings everywhere.

I'm not sure if this is the case, however. I'm not sure I understand what they mean in the manpage. Could you write a small test program to determine the exact behavior WRT invalid fds?

The patch moving queue management to the server has made about 10 casualties in my toy test suite (btw, why is this patch not appearing on any archive of wine-cvs either Integrita or the winehq one ? I am not suscribed to wine-cvs so I don't know if anyone has received it at all) The simplest problem is : --- timer.c.orig Sat May 19 01:24:04 2001 +++ timer.c Sat May 19 10:04:57 2001 @@ -104,7 +104,7 @@ TIMER * pTimer; HWINDOWPROC winproc = 0; - if (GetWindowThreadProcessId( hwnd, NULL ) != GetCurrentThreadId()) + if (hwnd && (GetWindowThreadProcessId( hwnd, NULL ) != GetCurrentThreadId())) { SetLastError( ERROR_INVALID_WINDOW_HANDLE ); return 0; This fixes ForteFreeAgent dying immediately with a 'no windows timer', Bcb4, and also funny menus problems. I checked GetWindowThreadProcessId under NT and it fails for hwnd=0 so I think that this is the proper fix. But there are other strange crashes that I have not yet investigated, also clicking in the vertical scrollbar in Acrobat Reader scrolls too much. Gerard
