Seems to me (from info in a later post) that M$ wsprintf uses an internal temporary buffer that has a size of 1024 - thus resticting the user to a buffer size of 1024, The actual size of the user buffer cannot be determined - hence the common 'buffer overflow' issues with sprintf. The C standard now includes snprintf() where the application passes in the length of the target buffer. I guess M$ might follow :-) Some systems also have an asprintf() routine which will malloc() a buffer that the caller must free(). David -- David Laight: david(a)l8s.co.uk

Segmentation Fault
by Kye Lewis 27 Oct '02

27 Oct '02

Hi, Not really sure if this is the right place to post this, but as i'm signed up to it; My version of wine has suddenly started Seg Faulting on startup. The last thing I tried with wine was netmeeting. This is with cvs version from 26th October at about 2:00 Australian Eastern Standard Time ( not sure what that is GMT - it was about 5 hours before posting this message ) Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Kye Lewis kyethespy(a)liquid2k.com

[RFC] creating Wine's own 'assert' variant
by Lionel Ulmer 26 Oct '02

26 Oct '02

Hi all, Currently, Wine's code is full of 'asserts'. The problem I have with that if that when such an assert is reached, only the thread being asserted is aborted, but Wine is not 'shut down' properly. Moreover, if I want the debugger to be launched on assert, I would need first to start the application with the debugger and add a breakpoint on some libc internal function. So, don't you think it would be better to have our own 'wine_assert' macro / function that could be configurable (ie abort or start the debugger) and that would also shut-down Wine properly ?

You may think me a rube, but I just made a test program that calls an arbitrary interrupt and prints the exception information. I don't set up any registers, so perhaps it generates an exception when it ought not in some cases, but anyone else is free to improve it.

Control Panel Application does not start
by Stefan Leichter 26 Oct '02

26 Oct '02

Hello, i am currently tracking down a problem with a program (Nokia PC Suite 4; NclConf.exe) that is unable to start its control panel application. The control panel application should be started by the rundll32.exe. It does not get started because of the path in the filename. The applet is searched in the correct directory but it does not get found because the path was not stripped from the filename. So a filename with path is compared to the filename without path read from the directoy. This will never match. I have attached a logfile with the relevant line (i hope). Will please someone be so kind and look at it and tell me what ithe reason for the problem is.

At that point, hDC should be a HDC, if it's not, you have to modify the code around it. Such casting should happen in the WindowProc, all functions should work with the proper type.

The reason is that additional info is needed for a proper fix. Safedisc depends on that EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION is returned on an int 0x01 call. But it should be checked what exceptions are raised on different windows versions when int 0x01 is called. And maybe the same should be done with other interrupts. It would be good if somebody could make that test program.

interrupts in when in NT version
by Zsolt Rizsanyi 25 Oct '02

25 Oct '02

Hi! I have Laurent Pinchart's safedisc patch applied and working for a while now. (and it works perfectly). But the recent interrupt changes tend to cause cvs conflicts and to break it. This patch is supposed to work only if winver is nt40 so very probably this applies only to NT. What the patch relies on is that the interrupt handling code (which was INSTR_EmulateInstruction before the changes), return EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION if interrupt 0x01 is called (if I understand it correctly). This was done with the next patches: Index: dlls/ntdll/signal_i386.c =================================================================== RCS file: /home/wine/wine/dlls/ntdll/signal_i386.c,v retrieving revision 1.46 diff -u -p -r1.46 signal_i386.c --- dlls/ntdll/signal_i386.c 12 Sep 2002 22:07:03 -0000 1.46 +++ dlls/ntdll/signal_i386.c 24 Oct 2002 10:13:36 -0000 @@ -729,6 +729,7 @@ static void do_segv( CONTEXT *context, i { EXCEPTION_RECORD rec; DWORD page_fault_code = EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION; + DWORD priv_instr_code = EXCEPTION_PRIV_INSTRUCTION; #ifdef CR2_sig /* we want the page-fault case to be fast */ @@ -758,8 +759,8 @@ static void do_segv( CONTEXT *context, i case T_SEGNPFLT: /* Segment not present exception */ case T_PROTFLT: /* General protection fault */ case T_UNKNOWN: /* Unknown fault code */ - if (INSTR_EmulateInstruction( context )) return; - rec.ExceptionCode = EXCEPTION_PRIV_INSTRUCTION; + if (INSTR_EmulateInstruction( context, &priv_instr_code )) return; + rec.ExceptionCode = priv_instr_code; break; case T_PAGEFLT: /* Page fault */ #ifdef CR2_sig Index: memory/instr.c =================================================================== RCS file: /home/wine/wine/memory/instr.c,v retrieving revision 1.19 diff -u -p -r1.19 instr.c --- memory/instr.c 23 Oct 2002 22:24:10 -0000 1.19 +++ memory/instr.c 24 Oct 2002 10:14:08 -0000 @@ -397,7 +397,7 @@ static void INSTR_outport( WORD port, in * * Emulate a privileged instruction.

Could it be possible to overcome all problems mentioned just by simply adding jack-support to the wine-server? Then someone could make a simple windows-program for chaining directx and vst plug-ins.

How can an app detect it's running under WINE?
by Alberto Massari 25 Oct '02

25 Oct '02

Hi everybody, I am working on making our software (Stylus Studio, http://www.stylusstudio.com) run under WINE, if this is feasible. To achieve this, I have already implemented a bunch of APIs (the application is built against the UNICODE version of the Win32 APIs) and fixed some bugs I hit (I already mailed the first patch to wine-patches(a)winehq.com). However, I would feel better if I could detect I am running under WINE and gracefully disable some functionalities that are not yet fully supported; is there any way to achieve this? Is there a WIN32 API (like, say, GetVersionEx) that can return a string like "Windows 2000 (WINE)" or is WINE trying to be as stealth as possible? Thanks in advance, Alberto ------------------------------- Alberto Massari eXcelon Corp. http://www.StylusStudio.com

Your application works as good as it does under Windows. Period. Of course you might better intergration with X Windows, printing or whatever to make your application work EVEN BETTER under Wine. :-) Then you have two choice: 1. Recompile your application using Winelib and use Unix API's 2. Under Windows, link with and use some "Wine extension" DLL that are just in many cases "return FALSE; SetLastError(ERROR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED)" on Windows but are implemented on Unix (or some Unixes). Sure (2) currently doesn't exist yet. However it wouldn't be very difficult to do it, if there is need. But no these functions are not for detecting Wine they are for tighter intergration with the underlying "OS" like X Windows, printing or whatever. However this is IMHO far beyond 1.0, so don't hold your breath. But sure if you can name some "Wine extension" API we REALLY need we might do it sooner... PS. Theoretically, the "Wine extensions" DLLs might be implementated on some future version Windows as well and it would be quite ironical if Microsoft did in the future. :-)

Oh sure, you CAN detect Wine if you want, the point is that the Wine project reserves the right to change any behavior at any time for any reason, but most often in order to try to make some application more compatible with Windows. If this breaks your Wine detection, tough. We will not change back because of you. So that is why there is no OFFICAL way to detect Wine, simple because if where was an offical way people could quite reasonable complain if some change to Wine broke their detection. However since there are no offical way, they can't complain can they? :-)

Whats done? not?
by Christensen Tom 25 Oct '02

25 Oct '02

Obviously wine is still being actively developed, and I know its not close to "done" however, I want to get involved, I know C/C++ and have a pretty good grasp of windows apis, I'm just wondering is there a place (kinda like in the Mono project they have a tree laid out with all of the classes/functions that are in the .NET runtime, and they have them marked done, being worked on, not started...) So I'm wondering if wine has anything similar? or should i just pick a function, and see if its done already by searching through the source? At any rate, wine should have a nice concise place to look and see if wine has certain functions implimented.. Tom _________________________________________________________________ Broadband?

hack to make GrandPrixLegens and N2002 work
by Christoph Frick 25 Oct '02

25 Oct '02

Hi! This is an more or less a straight forward hack to make the game grand prix legends work. It will also effect other games from Papyrus. The game has two problems: 1) It binds more than one time to the same port without doing an SO_REUSEADDR. Acording to UNP it is no big deal to do so - so i just force it. 2) The game sets SO_DONTROUTE on the socket. This works in linux and prevent the user of connecting to games in other networks. Either windows ignores the SO_DONTROUTE or it is not set in native windows or it is ignored. I dont have any opportunity to find out. Another thing is a registry key the game expexcts: [System\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\Class\\NetTrans\\0000] 1027876728 "IPAddress"="192.168.66.6" It runs with this setting (also N2002); maybe the dontroute problem could also be solved, if the remaining keys to properly define the TCP/IP config for a NIC in windows are set?! So my plea: Could some windows network/socket guru point me in a direction to do further investigations? BTW: i can not imagine this "patch" makes it to the tree - but just to have it said: The patch is under BSD License. CU!

Grmbl, I must have missed that case when I submitted my fix last time (I only did it in the actual DGA2 usage, not in the 'probing' code). The actual root cause is (for me), a 'feature' in the X server that, instead of reporting the extension as missing on remote clients, report it as being present but then send error messages when trying to use it.

Services
by Martin Wilck 25 Oct '02

25 Oct '02

I have had a look at dlls/advapi/services.c and found that it is pretty incomplete. Can anybody tell what the current implementation is used for (are there any known programs starting services?) In particular I'd like to know what people generally think about the usefulness of Services in Wine. The fact that wine cannot change user personalities and is lacking most of the NT security concepts makes services pretty useless. However it may be desirable to translate services into something useful on Unix, especially for winelib (it would be useful for the app I am trying to port). Has there been a discussion yet how to set this up without compromising system security?

eTax status report
by Ben Stanley 24 Oct '02

24 Oct '02

Hi, I have now completed using the eTax program from the Australian Taxation Office (http://etax.ato.gov.au) under wine, and have some concluding remarks. * Yellow Note Popups over buttons: these notes pop up almost immediately you put your mouse over a button, and if you click on them, the button does not respond. This causes great user frustration, as you point the mouse at a button, click the mouse, and nothing happens because the popup note appeared and stole the mouse click. Perhaps this could be solved by moving the popup note position so that it's not directly under the mouse pointer? I don't know if this is an etax problem or a wine problem. Workaround: move mouse over button and click again, or be very quick with your mouse click the first time. * ListView (tree): when hovering over items with long names, the same popup note appears, and also greedily steals mouse clicks, preventing you from selecting the item underneath. The note must pass the mouse click through for proper handling by the list item. Workaround: Wait for popup to disappear and then click on list item. * I had some refresh issues with the print preview section of the program. When it draws a page for the first time, all form fields appear to be filled in correctly, but when scrolling the form fields are often left blank when they should be filled in. This may be verified by going forward and then back a page, to force a complete re-draw of the original page, and verifying that fields which were previously blank are now drawn properly. * I didn't try to submit the tax return under wine, as I did not know about the wine integration of the web browser which would be used to perform the submission. (I failed to download the security codes under Mozilla, so I resorted to a Windows box for downloanding security codes and submission.) * Help problems, partly to do with launching winhelp from within etax, and also partly because WINE help can't yet read the etax help file properly. I used etax in the desktop windowing mode, as I had problems with both the managed and unmanaged modes. I set all dlls to builtin (except for "*"). This is the first year that I have been able to use eTax to do the tax return. I want to thank all of the wine contributors for making it possible! Last year I gave up and used a Windows box for the whole thing. Ben Stanley

I knew that much already ;) But if wine is to run as a "service" (i.e. load at bootup via an initscript) and acutally be functional as well as user-friendly, it will have to run in it's own account, just like apache and pgsql do and like i believe named does... -Dustin __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Why would Installshield want WINSPOOL.DRV
by David.Goodenough＠DGA.co.uk 24 Oct '02

24 Oct '02

I was asked by my son to install a couple of games for him on his Linux laptop. Wine is installed (at the current Debian unstable level) but when I try to run the installer, which says it is InstallShield, it gets to 99% and stops, and the console says that it can not load WINSPOOL.DRV. Firstly I can think of no good reason for InstallShield to want this (can anyone else, as far as I know this game - Star Trek Elite Force - does not have a print facility), and secondly what do you think is my best route fix the problem. There are some Windows machines (98/ME/NT4) in the house, I am using Win 98 mode in Wine, which machine should I copy WINSPOOL.DRV from if it will help? Thanks in advance David

Third listview status update
by Dimitrie O. Paun 24 Oct '02

24 Oct '02

Folks, With my latest W-series patches, the listview should now be a pleasure to work with: fast, *no* flicker, etc. It should be a lot better than before I started working on it. If this is not the case (there are regressions, there is nasty flicker *anywhere*, it's slow, or in general it's not a pleasure to interact with it, i.e. you don't get a warm and fuzzy feeling) let me know now. Internally, the code is a lot cleaner. I have started on Sep. 9, 2002, at revision 1.138. A month and a half, and almost 150 revisions later, most of the code has changed multiple times. Large number of visible, and mostly invisible bugs have been fixed, a lot of corner cases covered, features implemented, listview has been made scalable, flicker has been eliminated by redrawing the absolute minimum, etc. We are now on solid ground to implement more stuff. This has been an extenuating exercise. I am tired, and on top of it all, real life has knocked on my door. This does not mean I'll stop working on it, but it probably means that I will not be able to put as much time into it. For the above mentioned reasons, I think it's best for everybody if we stabilize the code as much as possible, before we start working on the large number of missing features. For this I need your help -- the few apps that I test with work just fine now. I would like to thank everybody that helped me with testing, patches, or reporting bugs. I couldn't have done the half of it without that support. This sounds like this is a done deal. It's not. There's a lot of stuff that remains to be done, but I needed some closure. :) -- Dimi.

Re: Re: [linux-audio-dev] Fwd: Opinions on running VST or DirectX plugins
by chrismorgan＠rcn.com 23 Oct '02

23 Oct '02

Just so people don't think the code has fallen off of the face of the planet ;-) Currently I'm working on two things with the wine jack driver , one of which needs to be complete before I submit the patch, the other can wait until some ongoing jack support is complete. 1. The driver currently closes and opens jack connections synchronously with wodOpen and wodClose. The problem is that jack doesn't actually close the clients right away, sometimes it can take many seconds for this to occur. Apparently this is a known jack bug but I'm also wondering if this is a problem in wines pthread implementation of conditions(there is no support for them right now). Either way I've implemented a workaround that basically consists of opening jack connections and marking them as in-use or available as apps open or close audio devices. This behavior can be enabled/disabled via a define in the driver. This isn't complete yet but it should be soon and would prevent the lockups and delays that currently make things a pain. 2. I don't know of an easy way to do resampling so the input audio matches the sample rate that jack expects. What I want is to be able to do something along the lines of: set_sample_rates(input_rate, jack_output_rate); set_resample_algorithm(x); /* pick a reasonable algorithm based on the current cpu and latency requirements */ And then in the callback routine something like: resample(audio_data_in, *audio_data_out); I haven't found anything even close to this simple as of yet, if anyone has any suggestions feel free to mail me about them. There is someone on the jack mailing list working on a resampling library that is supposed to be easy to use and flexable. Either way, this isn't critical although your music sounds funny if your sample rates don't line up very well ;-) Otherwise I'm also looking into a crash with using the jack driver and directsound that might be due to the client process and memory allocation. After working on the arts driver I realized that the future of audio servers really is callback based. It is quite frustrating to see so little use of jack and so much use of poor solutions like direct hardware drivers(alsa/oss) or high latency servers like artsd. No offense intended to people that work on or use either of those audio solutions, it just doesn't make sense when you want to have multiple apps outputting audio at the same time or if you need low latency(high end audio, games?, etc). I'll see what I can do to get things cleaned up and a patch submitted in the next week, conditional of course upon Alexandre accepting jack support into wine. At least now I have someone other than myself with an interest in using jack and wine together ;-) Thanks, Chris > > From: "Kjetil S.

Re: using native regedit
by Jeff Smith 23 Oct '02

23 Oct '02

I did some testing and found that *\\whatever.exe does not work, while *whatever.exe does. In case anyone thinks to themselves, "but that could cause problems for xwhatever.exe!", I tested further and found that it only affects programs with the name whatever.exe and not those such as xwhatever.exe. -- Jeff S. >We could add this to show different behaviours : > >; you can specify applications too >; This one will apply for all notepad.exe >;"*\\notepad.exe" = "native, builtin" >; This one will apply only for a particular file >;"C:\\regedit.exe" = "native, builtin" > >Is everyone ok ? _________________________________________________________________ Get faster connections -- switch to MSN Internet Access! http://resourcecenter.msn.com/access/plans/default.asp

Fixing OLE_GetFormatW
by Medland, Bill 23 Oct '02

23 Oct '02

I am just about to fix OLE_GetFormatW. (As far as I can see it can't have worked since rev 1.1). Before correcting the minor error I want to check something. Can anyone with access to NT answer this for me? If you pass a format string to GetDateFormatW that contains time-formatting characters I presume it just throws them away. Similarly if you pass a format string to GetTimeFormatW that contains date-formatting characters I presume it throws them away. Bill

fairly old wine regression: no$gmb no longer works
by Jonathan Gevaryahu 23 Oct '02

23 Oct '02

In wine builds from early? last year until January 29th, 2002, no$gmb (Nocash gameboy emulator) worked reasonably in wine (yes it would crash if you did 'animate trace' for too long, but that's a seperate issue). the commit which broke it was to wine/dlls/comctl32/status.c, on January 29th at 11:54 am. However, the fix that was done to status.c seems to be valid (later fixes to status.c do the same as what the fix did, I believe), so I suspect that the bug stems from some other issue which causes it to need the incorrect behavior in status.c in order to work. (personally I think it was something done during January that makes it need the incorrect status.c behavior, but I'm probably wrong) The nocash website is http://www.work.de/nocash/ or http://nocash.work.de/ Jonathan Gevaryahu

Bug tracked down in mci.c
by Erland Lewin 23 Oct '02

23 Oct '02

Hello, I just got the latest wine from cvs, and it crashed when I tried to run Half Life. The problem turned out to be in mci.c, in the mciSendStringA function. The variable lpCmd is set to point into the (in my case mciavi) driver's command table, at the word "open". However, towards the end of the mciSendStringA function, there is the following code: if (strcmp(verb, "open") == 0) { if ((dwRet = MCI_FinishOpen(wmd, (LPMCI_OPEN_PARMSA)data, dwFlags))) MCI_UnLoadMciDriver(iData, wmd); /* FIXME: notification is not properly shared across two opens */ } else { dwRet = MCI_SendCommand(wmd->wDeviceID, MCI_GetMessage(lpCmd), dwFlags, (DWORD)data, TRUE); } TRACE("=> 1/ %lx (%s)\n", dwRet, lpstrRet); dwRet = MCI_HandleReturnValues(iData, dwRet, wmd, lpCmd, data, lpstrRet, uRetLen); The problem is that MCI_UnLoadMciDriver is called, which causes the driver to be removed from memory, which means that lpCmd points to invalid memory. When MCI_HandleReturnValues then tries to use its lpCmd parameter, a segmentation fault will occur, becuase it tries to read from unmapped memory. I did a quick hack to work around the problem (lpCmd = strdup( lpCmd )) before the MCI_FinishOpen. I'd appreciate it if someone else could add a better permanent fix... Thanks for the good work on Wine!

Secondly the idea is that have different targets so you can easily switch between them.

It work eventhough it is a little kludgy. Oh well, it will do for now. Now I just have to properly fix all compile error instead of just kludging them...

True. I have already done so. It works.
