Wine, bugs and Word2k ...
by Paul Millar 13 Nov '02

13 Nov '02

Hi, I've been trying out wine with Word 2000 using builtin DLLs, both in desktop and managed mode. Mostly it works fine, but there's a few problems that detract from the "user experience". Any pointers on where to start looking for these bugs would be much appreciated -- relay is around 46 MiB before any of the problems surface :^/ 1. Whenever word decides to run their help agent, on my machine C:\WINDOWS\Msagent\AGENTSVR.EXE, I get messages: fixme:hook:NotifyWinEvent( 4, <HWND 1>, -3, 0)-stub! fixme:hook:NotifyWinEvent( 5, <HWND 1>, -3, 0)-stub! fixme:hook:NotifyWinEvent( 32773, <HWND 2>, -4, 0)-stub! Word and the agent then freezes. Killing off the agent, e.g. "kill $(ps ax|grep wine.*AGEN|awk '{print $1}')" allows word to recover ... 2. Dragging a dialogue box around causes a corruption on the screen (see [1]). When I release the button, the window moves, along with any corruption. Forcing a refresh (eg hiding the desktop window behind another one), clears up the corruption. 3. Normal resizing works fine, but word has an extra resizable corner (which isn't rendered correctly under wine, see [2]). This has had variable success in the past: when it fails, the window is resized so the left edge of the window shoots off the left edge of the screen, seemingly ignoring whatever the mouse does. With current CVS it seems to always fail in this way. 4. Exiting word, it tries to save NORMAL.DOT, saying "The disk is full or too many files are open. C:\windows\...\Templates\Normal.dot" causing: fixme:storage:StorageImpl_Commit (4): stub! fixme:storage:StorageImpl_Commit (4): stub! fixme:storage:StorageImpl_Commit (4): stub! fixme:ole:WriteFmtUserTypeStg (0x402b5550,17c,L"Microsoft Word Document") stub! fixme:hook:NotifyWinEvent (32774,0x00030031,52,3)-stub! fixme:hook:NotifyWinEvent (32773,0x00030031,-4,33)-stub! fixme:hook:NotifyWinEvent (32774,0x00030031,26,7)-stub! fixme:hook:NotifyWinEvent (32777,0x00030031,52,0)-stub! fixme:hook:NotifyWinEvent (32774,0x00030031,52,3)-stub! So I guess the storage is at fault. 5. Exiting Word causes wine to crash. This used to work ok (upto a few days ago). Backtrace shows a few random references to _end+0xd27f0 (etc..), followed by PE_InitDLL (pe_image.c:628 nt=1, module=1140195328, type=0, lpReserved=0x01), followed by module.c:159 .... seems to be trying to initialise winmm.dll, failing and jumping into blue yonder. On a whim, I reversed Eric's recent always-unload-winmm patch [3]. This "fixed" the problem. So, is wine attempting (and failing) to load winmm in order to unload it? (6. The debugger froze whilst trying to dereference the wm pointer in MODULE_InitDLL, it managed to print some of the structure before hanging ... but I think that's enough bugs for now ...)

Re: Re: DIB engine

I'll probably be taking a look at merging in the dib engine in the next few weeks as part of ongoing work to improve d3d support. If someone happens to start sooner just mail the list so we don't duplicate work.

I did some license checking and here is a quote from the qt package. You are licensed to use this software under the terms of either the Q Public License (QPL) or the GNU General Public License (GPL). so there should be no problems with kde/qt and wine linking. Mark Hannessen

Feedback for patch submissions
by Gerald Pfeifer 13 Nov '02

13 Nov '02

I'd like to suggest some form of feedback for patches submitted to wine-patches, which is currently a bit of a black hole. Some of the patches I sent did not committed (probably because Alexandre didn't consider the cleanup there worthwhile enough, which I even could understand): http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-patches/2002/11/0159.html And the following patch was committed with modifications: http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-patches/2002/11/0176.html -> http://cvs.winehq.com/patch.py?id=6249 Getting a bit of feedback in these cases (directly with a Cc: to wine-devel) would have been nice, not the least to educate submitters.

OLE File Format Documentation
by Charles Wyble 13 Nov '02

13 Nov '02

Hello I have obtained a copy of Microsofts Documentation on the Compound File Binary Format. I have posted it on my web site at chicago.sf.net/devel/ole/ff.txt. It is plain text now, but I will be converting it to HTML over the next few days. I hope it helps. _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
