- Previously posted to wine-users (but with LESS info, worded worse :)
As much as I think I won't be able to accomplish anything, I keep trying, and I've come across something interesting..
I'm testing my regression by doing the following: - Start the app - Press CTRL-V to paste text into the Command Window (which is the active 'MDI' window - but not really MDI - by default) - Switch to another virtual desktop - Switch back to Foxpro Desktop (That makes the Command Window 'look' active, by becoming blue instead of grey) - Click on the text that has been pasted.
All builds after 5/10/01 will have the problem. The text will highlight as I move the mouse, as if I was still holding the mouse button down. This behavior is the same on scrollbars also. I normally run FoxPro with: wine /mnt/windows/DevStudio/vfp/vfp.exe
Trying to discern some useful information, I've been playing with debugmsg. I've noticed if I do: wine --debugmsg +scroll,+event,+toolbar,+gdi,+heap /mnt/windows/DevStu dio/vfp/vfp.exe
Clicking works as it should.. Scrollbars take two clicks before the ButtonRelease isn't acknoledged, but the text highlighting doesn't occur. I can click and move around normally. If I attempt to highlight text, (holding down the button) the ButtonRelease then is ignored as before..
If I cut out some of the debug info: wine --debugmsg +scroll,+event,+toolbar /mnt/windows/DevStu dio/vfp/vfp.exe We're back to normal (non-working normal).
It seems like there is some timing issue that the (almost extreme) slowness from printing the debugging info is overcoming..(it's just going to stdout) Is there a click/release timer that could be increased?
I've posted a small application at http://www.havokmon.com/stuff/vfp5test.zip . It uncompresses to a setup.exe and files, which includes the VFP5 Runtime, and a test.exe application that just opens a MDI window. The above test works on this application. http://www.havokmon.com/stuff/vfp5test.txt has more information on setup and installation with Wine (because it's not 100%).
Hopefully everyone won't be too WineConf'd out next week :)
Thanks, Rick
