Hiho, can you tell me how do we test this patches? Maybe with real testing we can convince Alexandre to have the patches commited.
Hi,
Unfortunately, there's no easy way to test them, especially in Wine, as it comes without network provider.
At the moment, the tests I'm doing are the following: - I developped a "net use" application against Windows 2003 (ie, it works in Windows 2003 as the native app - minus a few features I don't need yet): https://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos/trunk/reactos/base/applications/network/... - This "net use" application obviously relies on MPR functions I'm working with. - I install an instance of ReactOS in VirtualBox/VMware and I try the various functions of net use, such as: * net use z: \UNC path (it must mount the remote UNC path and try to assign the z: drive letter. As net use command has no idea about network providers or whatever, it requires the second patch in row which allows selecting the good network provider (in MPR) to perform the connection). * net use * \UNC path (it must mount the remote UNC path and automatically assign a local drive letter). Typically, that's the patch you're replying to. It will attempt all the drive letters till one works. That one is also important because my net use implementation mimics the MS implementation: when connection is done with automatic drive letter selection, net use must write connection that was established (remote UNC to local letter), so it allows testing the return of the WNetUseConnection function: which is the local drive used). This is also covered by the 5th patch. net use z: /delete (it must cancel the connection). This covers the patches 3 and 4 of the serie.
Note that I also have patches to implement connected resources enumeration (which is working nicely :-)), but I didn't submit them yet to Wine, waiting for these 5 patches to make it. This is for the "net use" and "net use z:" command.
For the network provider "proper" implementation, I rely on open source software, known to work in Windows, such as VirtualBox guest additions (https://www.virtualbox.org/browser/vbox/trunk/src/VBox/Additions/WINNT/Share...) and Winfsp (https://github.com/billziss-gh/winfsp/blob/master/src/dll/np.c). Screenshots here can give you an overview of what can Wine MPR achieve now: https://twitter.com/HeisSpiter/media ;-).
I'll do a resend tonight to address a few style comments I received on #winehackers today (thanks!).
Thanks for your help on this!
Best wishes, Bruno
