Maybe not for all the InstallShield versions: it worked for me for the game "I-War" (quite old... DirectX 5 I think), with KDE 2.1 Or it could be that the installer crash doesn't help in getting the icon loaded... :-) I didn't had time to look into this feature. Ciao, Roberto.

CoGetClassObject
by Daniel Walker 07 Aug '01

07 Aug '01

I was thinking of ways to get the CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER option working in wine. The only program that uses it , that I know of, is installshield v6 .. I pretty sure some other people are working on this, but I don't know that status. (Anyone care to update me?) There is another problem. It's with the TypeLib information in the IKernel.exe that comes with InstallShield v6. The TypeLib information is encoded somehow, any ideas? I was able to get around that problem because installshield also looks for type information in "ikernel.tlb" . So I was able to create a .tlb that worked. I also used the reaktivate typelib patch so the typelib info gets put into the registry. So the way I understand it is that when CoGetClassObject is called Wine is suppose to , in this case, execute IKernel.exe . Then IKernel.exe will CoRegisterClassObject on all needed objects .. One problem is that the registered class object list isn't shared between the two processes, so we would need to move that list into the wine server (Right?) .. Then we would also need to send an instance of the class object to the Wine server (Yeah??) .. Following that road seems to lead to some messy address translations for DLL's and whatever else.. Since we have complete control over how IKernel.exe is run, how would we get the two processes to share memory? Maybe have IKernel.exe execute in a thread? IKernel.exe doesn't do anything but register it's class objects .. Would it be possible to treat IKernel.exe as a DLL then run CoRegisterClassObject for it? Daniel Walker

Curiously (on the subject of InstallSheild) I have just successfully installed the latest (5.0.8) Lotus Notes client on a wine system (latest tarball) and the new Lotus installer is InstallSheild based. It ran perfectly EXCEPT that the program would not terminate. The Lotus installer takes over the whole screen, and that went away, but wine never returned to the command line. As far as I could see there were no messages about locks or anything. The only error message the installer came up with was a dialog saying "AddFolderIcon" failed. I had also understood that there was now a facility to add programs that would have installed themselves into the Windows startup menu into the KDE menu structure. I am running KDE 2.2 from CVS if it matters. But nothing appeared. Had I understood wrong, or do I need to try to do some debugging?

Allright, but the most important question remains: who will volunteer to reverse engineer these SLTG typelibs and make Wine able to read them, so I can concentrate on the actual COM marshaling stuff (which is pretty hard enough as it is), so we can finally get those @#&% InstallShields up?

This seems to defeat the purpose of having the ODA_* constants. Would it also fix your problem to only do the PAINT_BUTTON when the window is visible? -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Window-position bug?
by davep 04 Aug '01

04 Aug '01

Here's one I haven't seen before. Build the 'winemine' application in the programs directory and start it running. Click on the smiley-face button (which redraws the window). Every time I press the button the entire window moves down the screen one pixel. Dave

RE: What is the @ in the function headers

> Quick question. What is the @ in a function header supposed > to contain? > Presumably it is the ordinal in the Dll. Well, functions either has an ordinal or a @. If it has a @ it is means that it doesn't matter what the ordinal is, that winebuild can assign any ordinal it likes for the function. > But what if the > same function has > different ordinals in different copies of the Dll? You mean different versions? Anyway, Wine has no support for it, because none is really needed, because any application that tries to access functions by ordinal that doesn't have a fixed ordinal across DLL version is broken even on Windows.
