Hi, and a regression in bug 10486

2007-11-17 Thread Paweł Różański
Hi

I have found a regression in wine. a strange one. What is a  policy
about posting such regressions, here on malling list?

(Or is regression is worth enough to post it here?)

I don't play that particular game on wine and it's "minor" bug - but i
have found (via bitsect) that
"user32: Cache the window class name on the client side." produce
strange effects on directx code. I have faith that regressions are
supposed to post here as well.

More info in bug #10486

Take care & Hope that helps

Is there a bugzilla setting for this?  Eg "don't allow others to CC me"?

Re: Removing Windows and Solaris from the Downloads page

I compiled wine on Solaris using a .spec provided by the people of

Maybe contact them ?

My version runs quite nice as far as i can see.

ReadProcessMemory Question

2007-11-17 Thread Dave Cartright
I am trying to read the memory of another process with ReadProcessMemory but I 
can only get it to work when I use VirtualAllocEx to commit the region of 
memory - problem is (as you very well know) that VirtualAllocEx initializes the 
region with 0s.  So my question is how do I get ReadProcessMemory to work 
without using VirtualAllocEx??

It seems there is a bug in the tests,
Once this is fixed I will resend it again.
I have sent this to Juan Lang for review.
Once our expert tells me whats wrong I will resend.
Sorry for top posting, I was in a hurry.

It's not that cut and dry.  Some people don't mind being CC'ed.  Some  
people do mind being CC'ed, and I know I'm not the only one.  Some  
devels aren't subscribed to wine-bugs.  Like I said before, asking the  
devel to assign the bug to himself is a lot more respectful.

There is a test in derive_key function that fails.
If I put a if condition to make it a todo_wine, it looks loke a hack
and its ugly
As that function is used alot.

It sounds to me like you're trying to read the previous contents of 
areas of memory. However, you don't seem to realise either that virtual 
memory is not physical memory or that uncommitted virtual memory is not 
backed by a page of memory in swap or physical memory, so calling 
ReadProcessMemory on it doesn't make sense as there is no data there to 
be read! Furthermore, when a page of virtual memory is deallocated then 
it free to be allocated again by any process in the system, and as you 
say it is initialised to all 0's as a security measure and you can't get 
that same page back again.

What are you trying to do?  A little more context might help.

FWIW, ReadProcessMemory has some drawbacks as an IPC mechanism:

Here are a few examples of how to use ReadProcessMemory:

I saw James' email after I wrote that email. I think it's fine as well
if somebody asks not to be added.
But not everybody that adds bug descriptions reads wine-devel.

At least I will not add anybody to the cc-list anymore and try to
contact the author.

Cheers,

Paul.

IMHO that line should be left in the wiki, simply because not all patch
submitters are subscribed to wine-bugs mailing list. But I find nothing
wrong if somebody already subscribed asks to not add him to the cc: list.

Regression testing and cc-ing the author

2007-11-17 Thread Paul Vriens
Hi,

I've opened a bug (which if fixed now btw) and the regression testing page at 
http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting said "Also be sure to add the author 
of 
the patch to the CC".

So this is what I did.

Should that line be removed from the wiki or do we generally want the author to 
be CC-ed?

The recommended way to do this is mark the parts of the tests that
fail in Wine with todo_wine.

Re: Removing Windows and Solaris from the Downloads page

The question is what dlls should we include? Something like the d3d
dll's would be useful, and a lot of other dll's (mshtml, shdocvw, etc)
probably too. Unfortunately wine won't build on mingw properly,if you
try a 'make' in mingw, it will bomb out on building in dll's. If someone
wants to maintain windows dll's, the makefiles should be adjusted so
that it will build properly, and skip the dll's wine can't emulate in
windows. Such as ntdll, kernel32, advapi, to name a few, probably all
dll's with wineserver calls and perhaps a few more.

Regards,
Maarten.

They should get updated. In case of Solaris there are some bugs which prevent 
it from running I think. In case of Windows someone needs to update the 
package. It is very useful to use some of the wine dlls (wined3d for instance) 
or tests on Windows.
