* [ipc/*]
New directory. This directory contains the new inter-wine
communications support. It enables DDE protocols between two wine
instances. Currently it is limited to DDE, but can be enhanced to
support OLE between 2 different wine instances. This is very
important for libwine.a DDE/OLE support.
* [tools/ipcl]
A script to delete garbage IPC handles (shared memory, semaphores
and message queues). The current inter-wine communication is not
perfect, and sometimes leaves garbage behind.
* [if1632/relay.c] [include/atom.h] [include/global.h]
[loader/selector.c] [loader/task.c] [loader/module.c]
[loader/signal.c] [memory/global.c] [misc/atom.c]
[windows/class.c] [windows/message.c] [windows/win.c]
[Imakefile]
Hooks for inter-wine DDE support, current Global.*Atom functions
renamed to Local.*Atom since Global.*Atom are used for Inter-Wine
DDE communication. (The first call to these functions sets up the
IPC structures - which otherwise cause unneeded overhead.
Mon Jul 17 19:55:21 1995 Alexandre Julliard <julliard@sunsite.unc.edu>
* [controls/menu.c]
Don't crash if a NULL string is passed to menu functions.
* [memory/selector.c]
We now use a bit in ldt_flags_copy to indicate free LDT entries.
Fixed a bug in SELECTOR_ReallocBlock that could cause it to
overwrite valid LDT entries when growing a block.
* [miscemu/instr.c]
Emulate int xx instruction by storing the interrupt vector in
CS:IP and returning directly. This allows a program to install an
interrupt vector.
* [windows/win.c]
Added function WIN_GetTopParent to get the top-level parent of a
window.
Sun Jul 16 18:17:17 1995 Gregory Trubetskoy <grisha@mira.com>
* [loader/resource.c]
Added LoadIconHandler. It doesn't do anything yet, but now you
can use borland help files with winhelp.exe.
Sun Jul 16 11:58:45 1995 Anand Kumria <akumria@ozemail.com.au>
* [misc/main.c]
Fixed to return 386 Enhanced mode correctly. Also return the same
type of CPU, for both Enhanced and Standard mode, namely a 386.
Sun Jul 16 00:02:04 1995 Martin von Loewis <loewis@informatik.hu-berlin.de>
* [Configure] [include/options.h] [include/wineopts.h]
[misc/main.c][misc/spy.c]
Removed support of spy file. Redirected spy messages to stddeb.
Removed -spy option. Added -debugmsg +spy option.
* [debugger/dbg.y][debugger/debug.l]
Enabled segmented addresses (seg:offs) for break and x commands.
* [if1632/gdi.spec] [objects/region.c] [windows/graphics.c]
[include/region.h]
FrameRgn, REGION_FrameRgn: New functions
* [if1632/kernel.spec]
IsWinOldApTask: Return false
* [if1632/mouse.spec]
CplApplet: Removed
* [if1632/user.spec] [windows/win.c]
ShowOwnedPopups: New function
* [if1632/winsock.spec] [misc/winsocket.c]
inet_addr, select: New prototypes in relay code
Fixed memory layout for netdb functions (getXbyY).
WINSOCK_ioctlsocket: Translated FIONREAD, FIONBIO, and FIOASYNC
* [objects/clipping.c]
RectVisible: Fixed call to LPToDP
* [rc/winerc.c]
main: Removed extra argument to getopt for Linux.
Tue Jul 11 00:14:41 1995 Bernd Schmidt <crux@pool.informatik.rwth-aachen.de>
* [controls/listbox.c]
Yet another fix for ListBoxDirectory().
* [loader/module.c] [if1632/kernel.spec]
Make GetModuleHandle() accept instance handles as parameter.
* [if1632/relay.c] [loader/task.c]
Put a magic cookie at the bottom of the 32 bit stack, and check on
each return from a 32 bit function whether it's still there. Complain
if it's not.
* [if1632/user.spec]
Wrong entry for CloseDriver().
* [misc/dos_fs.c] [loader/task.c] [include/dos_fs.h] [misc/file.c]
[miscemu/int21.c]
Large parts of dos_fs.c simplified. Changed it to use one
current drive/directory per task, which is set to the module path on
task creation.
Prevent CorelPaint from closing stdin.
open() with O_CREAT set must be passed three parameters.
DOS FindFirst()/FindNext() could crash when FA_LABEL was set. Fixed,
it's in DOS_readdir() now.
* [misc/profile.c]
Some badly written software (Lotus Freelance Graphics) passes a bogus
size parameter that caused Wine to write off the end of a segment.
Fixed. (It's probably too paranoid now.)
* [multimedia/mmsystem.c] [multimedia/time.c] [multimedia/joystick.c]
[multimedia/Imakefile] [if1632/winprocs.spec]
16 bit entry point for MMSysTimeCallback.
Split off time.c and joystick.c from mmsystem.c.
* [objects/dib.c]
GetDIBits(): call XGetImage() via CallTo32_LargeStack.
* [windows/cursor.c]
DestroyCursor(): do nothing for builtin cursors.
* [windows/mdi.c]
Half of WM_MDISETMENU implemented.
* [windows/win.c]
EnumWindows() and EnumTaskWindows() never enumerated any windows.
Fixed.
* [windows/*.c]
Fixed GetParent() to return correct values for owned windows.
* [windows/message.c]
Don't try to activate disabled top-level windows.
* [windows/nonclient.c]
Work around a bug in gcc-2.7.0.
* [tools/build.c] [include/stackframe.h] [memory/global.c]
[loader/task.c] [memory/selector.c]
Some Visual Basic programs (and possibly others, too) expect ES to be
preserved by a call to an API function, so we have to save it.
In GlobalFree() and FreeSelector(), we must clear CURRENT_STACK16->es
to prevent segfaults if ES contained the selector to be freed.
Sun Jul 9 20:21:20 1995 Jon Tombs <jon@gtex02.us.es>
* [*/*]
Added missing prototypes to header files and relevant includes
to reduce compile time warnings.
Sun Jul 9 18:32:56 1995 Michael Patra <micky@marie.physik.tu-berlin.de>
* [configure.in] [include/config.h] [*/Makefile.in]
New configuration scheme based on autoconf.
Sat Jul 8 14:12:45 1995 Morten Welinder <terra+@cs.cmu.edu>
* [miscemu/ioports.c]
Revamp to have only one in- and one out- variant, both really
implemented.
* [miscemu/instr.c]
INSTR_EmulateInstruction: Use new ioport interface. Implement
string io. Correct instruction pointer for 32-bit code.
* [include/miscemu.h]
Update port function prototypes.
* [include/registers.h]
Defined FS and GS.
Sat Jul 8 13:38:54 1995 Hans de Graaff <graaff@twi72.twi.tudelft.nl>
* [misc/dos_fs.c]
ChopOffSlash(): A path consisting off a single slash is left
intact, and multiple slashes are all removed.
1. INTRODUCTION
Wine is a program that allows running MS-Windows programs under X11.
It consists of a program loader, that loads and executes an
MS-Windows binary, and of an emulation library that translates Windows
API calls to their Unix/X11 equivalent.
Wine is free software. See the file LICENSE for the details.
Basically, you can do anything with it, except claim that you wrote it.
2. COMPILATION
You must have one of:
Linux version 0.99.13 or above
NetBSD-current
FreeBSD-current or FreeBSD 1.1
You also need to have libXpm installed on your system. The sources for
it are probably available on the ftp site where you got Wine. They can
also be found on ftp.x.org and all its mirror sites.
To build Wine, first do a "./Configure" and then a "make" (or "gmake"
if you're running *BSD). The executable "wine" will be built. "wine"
will load and run 16-bit Windows executables.
To upgrade to a new release by using a patch file, first cd to the
top-level directory of the release (the one containing this README
file). Then do a "make clean", and patch the release with:
gunzip -c patch-file | patch -p1
where "patch-file" is the name of the patch file (something like
Wine-yymmdd.diff.gz). You can then re-run "./Configure", and then
run "make".
3. SETUP
Wine requires you to have a file /usr/local/etc/wine.conf (you can
supply a different name when configuring wine) or a file called .winerc
in your home directory.
The format of this config file is just like a Windows .ini file.
The file wine.ini contains a config file example.
Here's an explanation of each section:
* [drives]
format: <driveletter> = <rootdirectory>
default: none
This section is used to specify the root directory of each `dos'drive
as Windows' applications require a dos/mswindows based diskdrive &
directory scheme.
If you mounted your dos-partition as /dos and installed Microsoft Windows
in c:\windows than you should specify c=/dos in the drives section.
* [wine]
format: windows = <directory>
default: c:\windows
Used to specify an different windows directory.
format: system = <directory>
default: c:\windows\system
Used to specify an different system directory.
format: temp = <directory>
default: c:\temp
Used to specify a directory where Windows applications can store temporary
files.
format: path = <directories separated by semi-colons>
default: c:\windows;c:\windows\system
Used to specify the path which will be used to find executables and DLL's.
format: symboltablefile = <filename>
default: wine.sym
Used to specify the path and file name of the symbol table used by the
built-in debugger.
* [serialports]
format: com[12345678] = <devicename>
default: none
Used to specify the devices which are used as com1 - com8.
* [parallelports]
format: lpt[12345678] = <devicename>
default: none
Used to specify the devices which are used as lpt1 - lpt8.
* [spy]
format: file = <filename or CON when logging to stdout>
default: none
used to specify the file which will be used as logfile.
format: exclude = <message names separated by semicolons>
default: none
Used to specify which messages will be excluded from the logfile.
format: include = <message names separated by semicolons>
default: none
Used to specify which messages will be included in the logfile.
4. RUNNING PROGRAMS
When invoking Wine, you must specify the entire path to the executable,
or a filename only.
For example: to run Windows' solitaire:
wine sol (using the searchpath to locate the file)
wine sol.exe
wine c:\\windows\\sol.exe (using a dosfilename)
wine /usr/windows/sol.exe (using a unixfilename)
Note: the path of the file will also be added to the path when
a full name is supplied on the commandline.
Have a nice game of solitaire, but be careful. Emulation isn't perfect.
So, occasionally it may crash.
5. GETTING MORE INFORMATION
The best place to get help or to report bugs is the Usenet newsgroup
comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine. The Wine FAQ is posted there every
month.
If you add something, or fix a bug, please send a patch to
wine-new@amscons.com for inclusion in the next release.
