Yeah, a wiki page for the Quartz driver would be nice. There are a couple implementations floating around, some using QuickDraw and some using CoreGraphics. Most have endian bugs, since they were written with Darwine/PPC in mind. As far as which is best, it seems to be that QD is easiest, but it's a deprecated API.
I think I'd use CG if I decided to sit down and write it, which I might do. I've got some free time, and in a week or so I'll have access to an intel mac for development. Thoughts on CG? Alexandre? Will On 6/26/06, Steven Edwards <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I am really interested in the Quartz driver but have not had the time to focus on it. It would be cool if someone could cleanup the diff and or poke at Julliard for his comments on it before too much time is invested in developing it futher. As far as I have seen simple win32 apps work with it which is a good start but it would be nice to have a patch that he could review and advise what more is needed before it can go in winehq. Being able to run Wine without needing the damn X server would be wonderful but its never going to get past the solitare stage unless we can get it in winehq. The last time I spoke with him about it, he said the Quartz driver did not have to be 100% just enough to prove a valid framework which I think the current one does. Namely running solitare without the X. The major infrastructure issue with it the last time I looked was the problem of conflicting functions in the C namespace. The quartzdrv imported and used Mac functions that had the same name as win32 functions and led to all sorts of problems requiring a hack to winebuild. Julliard suggested some linker magic could be done to not require needing to hack winebuild and or making some sort of wrapper library. I am sure there are other issues with design he will want resolved also.... -- Steven Edwards "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come." - Victor Hugo
