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 ?

hey mate.. just got latest CVS of wine (From winehq), it didnt compile, something about not finding "freetype/ftnames.h"... i couldnt find it on my system, in any deb packages, no one had it... so i went hunting, find you left out an 's'.. it should be #include <freetype/ftsnames.h> instead of #include <freetype/ftnames.h> i've cc'd this to "wine-devel"... so yer, if you could fix it, thatd be cool.. but whatever ;p cheers David -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Hammerton aka crazney Victoria, Australia http://crazney.net/ HOWTO maintainer and Linux Half-Life http://lhl.linuxgames.com/ email: http://crazney.net/contact.html -> Note: this email address expires after one week.

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

queue management problem
by eric pouech 19 May '01

19 May '01

after last night move of queue management to the server, one of my test app stopped working. What happens is that it's waiting on a WM_TIMER message, but which is no longer triggered. After some investigation, it turned out that message retrieval did change a bit: - in previous code, if the QS_PAINT bit was set, but no window to redraw was found, then the QS_TIMER bit was tested - current code, returns from the server a WM_PAINT message in any case, and if no window can be found, then we retry the whole loop, and we don't check the timer case for my, the wPaintCount was always > 1, meaning that the QS_PAINT bit was never reset then, I investigated why the wPaintCount was > 1. It seems that when a visible window, needing some redraw, is hidden before the update takes place, then we don't update the paint count (which should be decreased) the attached patch does take care of it (basically, if we find a hidden window with an update region, then we destroy the region, and clear the internal paint flag), but I don't think it's the best place to do it. any better idea ?

(I believe something like it slipped through recently -- not good.) It used to be that documentation/porting contained lots of reasons why mentioning any OS name in places like this is a bad idea.

There are (badly written) applications that suffer greatly from this. Furthermore I did some tests on Win 95 and Word 97 only does that with some files, not all. Also, Word 2000 no longer behaves that badly. Now, if it were a per application setting it could make sense. -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)free.fr http://fgouget.free.fr/ Any sufficiently advanced Operating System is indistinguishable from Linux

It won't ever get to crashing, since it doesn't even link! Try a make checklink and you'll see. Unfortunately because of the way we link libraries you can actually create a .so that contains undefined symbols; it will only fail at load-time. This is why we have make checklink to spot this kind of problems at compile-time. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

You cannot do this with the Win32 API, that's true. And since the native msvcrt is implemented on top of the Win32 API, this means that msvcrt exec functions cannot possibly behave exactly like the Unix ones. What you must do is find out the expected behavior of the msvcrt exec, and implement the same behavior; you should then be able to do this using the Win32 API, since this is how the native one does it. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Re: Networking with Mandrake 8.0 and SuSE 7.1

Unfortunately I can't really try the 2.4 kernel because Mandrake didn't get the PCMCIA token ring patch in there. I failed miserably to patch it in the last time I tried :( I plan to examine all the patches that Mandrake applies to their 2.2.19 kernel and back out some of them.

I am on a token ring network, which I don't think should matter. I had the exact problem with SuSE Linux: starting from Kernel SuSE-2.2.18, wine doesn't work anymore, but if I use a self compiled "stock" kernel, it works again. It's a pity I know little of both Wine and Kernel tcp/ip, and I don't have time to check kernels and diffs... :-( I don't know about Mandrake, but SuSE distributes a tar.gz with all the patches they apply to their kernels. If Mandrake does something similar, I guess a few "apply a part of the patches - compile - test" cycle should help spot the problem(s). If anyone on the list has ideas on tests I could do to gather more info, I'll be glad to help (I still have SuSE stock kernels installed, so I can test differences in behaviours between different versions rather quickly) Ciao, Rob!

Documentation: lists interfer with the TOC
by Francois Gouget 18 May '01

18 May '01

If you look at the documentation table of contents you'll see things like: Anonymous unions/structs Unicode 21. C library 22. 23. The 21, 22 and 23 are not supposed to be here. What I noticed is that they appear each time I have an orderedlist or an itemizedlist in the section. If I put them in a para instead of directly at the level of the section then I don't get the extra numbers anymore. So should I go through all the doc to make things look like that? <para> <orderedlist> ... </orderedlist> </para> Hmmm, I don't see this problem in the postscript version and DocBook doesn't say that the orderedlist elements must be in a para tag. So it looks like a bug in the HTML generation. Does anyone know how to go fix this? -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)free.fr http://fgouget.free.fr/ I haven't lost my mind, it's backed up on tape around here somewhere...
