- Integrated patches from Alexandre.
- Minor bug fix in if1632.S
WHAT'S NEW with version 0.0.5:
- Patches from Alexandre Julliard. Some integration with Tcl.
- Generic interface for callback procedures. This will allow
callbacks into DLLs.
- MakeProcInstance() has been implemented but untested.
WHAT'S NEW with version 0.0.4:
- Eric Youngdale modified wine.c and selector.c to allow loading
of Windows DLLs.
- Added global memory allocation routines (GlobalAlloc, GlobalFree,
and GlobalLock)
- Bitmap resource loading into global memory.

So here goes release 0.1.0 of the Windows loader. It will do some
|
|
relocations and then run the program. I have successfully loaded
|
|
the Windows solitaire game. Try it. It currently stops a call to
|
|
GetObject().
|

|
|
WHAT'S NEW with version 0.1.0:
|
|
- Integrated patches from Alexandre.
|
|
- Minor bug fix in if1632.S

- Eric Youngdale modified wine.c and selector.c to allow loading
|
|
of Windows DLLs.
|
|
- Added global memory allocation routines (GlobalAlloc, GlobalFree,
|
|
and GlobalLock)
|
|
- Bitmap resource loading into global memory.
|
|
|
|
WHAT'S NEW with version 0.0.3:
|
|
- Fixed bug with sector sizes.
|
|
- Registers at program startup are now set correctly.
|
|
- Segment fixups for relocatable-segment internal entry points.
|
|
- Fixed bug in DOS PSP structure.
|
|
- Some resource loading is done.
|
|
- Added "return" ordinal type to build program.
|
|
- Added comment capability to build program.
|
|
|
|
WHAT'S NEW with version 0.0.2:
|
|
|
|
- Again thanks to Eric Youngdale for some very useful comments.
|
|
- The Windows startup code created by Micrsoft C 7.0 now runs
|
|
to completion.
|
|
- Added a new patch to the kernel to increase the usable size of
|
|
the ldt to the full 32 entries currently allowed.
|
|
- Imported name relocations are now supported.
|
|
- Source code for my infamous test program is now included.
|
|
- A handful of basic Windows functions are now emulated. See
|
|
"kernel.spec" for examples of how to use the build program.
|
|
|
|
WHAT'S NEW with version 0.0.1:
|
|
|
|
- Eric Youngdale contributed countless improvements in memory
|
|
efficiency, bug fixes, and relocation.
|
|
- The build program has been completed. It now lets you specify
|
|
how the main DLL entry point should interface to your emulation
|
|
library routines. A brief description of how to build these
|
|
specifications is included in the file "build-spec.txt".
|
|
- The code to dispatch builtin DLL calls is complete, but untested.
|
|
|
|
TODO:
|
|
|
|
- Segment fixup code completion.
|
|
- Trap and handle DOS and DPMI calls.
|
|
- global memory allocation completion
|
|
- GlobalAlloc should support ZEROINIT.
|
|
- GlobalAlloc of code segments.
|
|
- complete and improve local heap allocation.
|
|
- Handle self-loading applications.
|
|
- Resource loading
|
|
|
|
INSTALLATION:
|
|
|
|
Uncompress and untar this archive into the directory of your
|
|
choice. The file "ldt.tar" contains a necessary kernel patch against
|
|
Linux 0.99.10. "ldt.tar" is unchanged from the version released
|
|
with release 0.0.2. In the directory /usr/src/linux (or whereever
|
|
you keep your kernel sources), untar this file it contains three files:
|
|
|
|
kernel/ldt.c
|
|
- This is source for a new system call.
|
|
|
|
include/linux/ldt.h
|
|
- This contains structures defining the system call
|
|
interface.
|
|
|
|
ldt.patch
|
|
- This is a patch that must be applied to the kernel.
|
|
It updates two header files, and the kernel Makefile.
|
|
|
|
BUILD:
|
|
|
|
The documentation for the build program is in the file build-spec.txt
|
|
|
|
FINALE:
|
|
|
|
Good luck,
|
|
|
