Forgive the intrusion
by Robert Amstadt 06 Nov '02

06 Nov '02

Please don't let me distract you from your important work, but Thomas Wickline asked me to stop in and say hello to all of you. I understand that we are approaching the 10 year anniversary of Wine. That is a remarkable feat. All of you should be proud to be contributing to this effort. It is an amazing piece of software. Though many of the names I see on the WineHQ web site are new to me. I continue to see Alexandre Julliard's name on this work. I had the pleasure of meeting Alexandre many years ago and I am so glad to see that he continues the work after so many years. Alexandre, if you read this, thank you very much for all that you have done for free software. Thank you to the rest of you as well. Wine has been a team effort from the start and is so successful because it is a team effort. When I stepped down from leading this project, I knew it would continue due to the efforts of all the people that have helped along the way. It not only has continued, but it clearly thrives. I'm amazed at the number of people that know what Wine is. Congratulations to all of you Wine developers. You are amazing people. ----- Bob Amstadt http://www.amstadt.com/~bob bob(a)amstadt.com

Re: templates support to commdlg ChooseFont

One more bug: FIXME still reports the CF_ENABLETEMPLATE flag as non-supported.

IDL/header issues
by Ove Kaaven 06 Nov '02

06 Nov '02

Now WIDL is good enough to generate a drop-in replacement for Wine's wtypes.h (attached) from a suitably crafted Wine-compatible wtypes.idl (also attached). I've included all the definitions that were already in Wine's wtypes.h (but I was too lazy to do everything that's in Microsoft's wtypes.idl yet). What do you think, is this good enough to go into Wine? Are there some desirable changes to widl or wtypes.idl? And should IDL files go into the main include dir along with the other Win32 headers? IDL-generated files would also eventually obsolete all the current wine/obj_*.h files, but those obj_* files seem to be somewhat more logically structured than MS's own IDL files, should we craft Wine's IDL files accordingly, and maybe have some top-level .idl files in include/ and some sub-.idl files under include/wine/, like it's done now in e.g. objidl.h? Note that I will work on ReWind, not directly on Wine, so I probably won't be able to submit massive "change all files to include this instead of that" patches (that apply to Wine) with any new files.

RE: Wine headers mismatch

The tests compiles fine (except for ntdll if the Microsoft headers are used). Some fails on Windows when running, but I haven't had time to look at it very much. As for the normal dlls: Well some compile most don't. Quite a lot of work remains. However the compilation instructure generated by msvcmaker work quite well, so if anybody want to help they can. I have a lot of kludges in my MSVC tree so you might run into some problems though...

Re: OT: Wine history
by Brian Vincent 06 Nov '02

06 Nov '02

> What's the history of Wine? Hmm. I actually started on something like this. Google's groups are a great way to find info. Some of the stuff I started on was the very early years - 1993 - 1995. I'm sure Marcus or Alexandre could fill in the blanks after that. As far as Bob goes, there was a posting back in '96 or '98 about his involvement with TWIN. Weird fact of the day: Miguel de Icaza was cited as an early contributor to Wine. -Brian Vincent vinn(a)theshell.com

Mr. Amstadt, I just was marvelling at seeing you on the list ;) and the question happened to pop into my head, what do you think about the whole wine relicensing ordeal, and TransGaming trying to get at the LGPL-licensed code? -Dustin Navea WebHosting Tech Support, RackShack.net Internet Services Minor Code Contributor/Better Bugfinder, winehq.com IRC NetAdmin, irc.blynk.net (down) __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

here we are.

Have you checked that, or it is > just your opinion? Carlos words regarding copy protection: > You aren't giving hints to decrypt some code, simply implementing the > win32 API, and sometimes implementing a PC architecture, it is far away > of decrypt code ;). well i'am not a lawyer, so i guess i was probably wrong about copyprotection being illegal after all. > Zsolt also said he could provide a safedisc patch against the current cvs. Zsolt, could you give us a status of your safedisc patch ? does it work with all winver versions or is this one limited to nt40 ? ( most games do not run in nt40 mode ) is it safedisc 1.x only or safedisc 2.x as well. anyway, any work on copyprotection is very very usefull for everbody. so please impent everything you have.
