Hi Laurent, if you can`t implement the functionality yourself, then you might want to file a Bug in Bugzilla stating that your application depends on WidenPath() and add a simple Testcase for it. This will (at least) increase the chance, that the functionality gets added someday :) Maybe it would be useful too, if you would add an entry in our AppDB that decribes your App in more detail.

Thanks for answering me.

Hi Laurent! You wrote:
I'm trying make a french software called Navigation, used by airplane pilots and created using visual basic, work on linux using wine.
Can you provide a URL to a page describing the software you're trying to port?
http://francois.fouchet.free.fr/ The page doesn't exist in english.
The point is this software needs gdi:widenpath to work. I'd just like to know if this function is planned for the next release or if I will have to wait a little more.
It's not planned, as far as I know.
Is there a web page where anyone could follow a planning, so that i won't disturb you to much ?
If your business really needs it, and you're not comfortable trying it yourself, you might consider contracting with a Wine developer to implement it. What's your schedule?
For anyone curious about WidenPath(), here are a couple links on the subject: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms535195.aspx http://edais.mvps.org/Tutorials/GDI/DC/DCch7.html http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=524165
Thanks & good luck!

In fact, I don't need this software professionaly. I wrote what job I'm doing only to present myself.
I'll try to produce a patch if my skills allow me too and if I find enough time to do it.
Otherwise I'll wait and keep a look on your mailing-list.
Thank you for your help. I hope I'll come again with something to give you.
Laurent
