That's the Win32 way of saying "I want > a real 'long' like everybody else is using" aka one that has the same > size as a pointer. A LONG_PTR is a signed integer large enough to hold a pointer value. A long may or may not be the same size. This would break if built for 64-bit Windows, for example, where a long is still 32 bits (and what the 64-bit Windows version of the lib will expect), while a LONG_PTR is 64 bits.

But that has to be a bug in wine - that it doesn't check the image size and loads PE with an invalid image size? (how that end up being invalid is a different issue).

dinput2
by David Adam 21 May '10

21 May '10

Hello many distro ship the X-server with dinput2. More and more old games work pretty well now with Wine, but the mouse. Does anyone plan to work on the infamous bug 6971? It would be great if it could be implemented for the official release of Wine. It would do a big buzz :D Cheers David

We don't want to 'tweek' and 'twist' and apply patch after patch after patch. If it don't work, out of the box, it goes. We don't have time to 'play'. So, many of us use Crossover.

When a new user is created on the Mac, the user name, less spaces and special characters, is used for the folder name. The Desktop folder IS the Mac Aqua desktop and I highly suggest NOT placing .desktop and .lnk files there. Unlike Windows users, most Mac users like to keep their desktops 'clean'. Doing what you desire will take more work and a good poll of the Mac community before implementation. This is part of the reason that Apple has used the Dock and created Documents/Download folders on it. Maybe that would be a good place to put Wine application icons. > >Please keep in mind that this is not to bash Linux or Windows users.

TRACE(...., debugstr_w(uninitialised data))?
by Joerg-Cyril.Hoehle＠t-systems.com 21 May '10

21 May '10

Hi, winmm/mci.c contains some code like this: TRACE("=> 1/ %x (%s)\n", dwRet, debugstr_w(lpstrRet)); However, in case of error, the lpstrRet buffer is likely not initialised. This could cause 1. debugstr_w to choke on bad/unconvertible data (not even 0-terminated); 2. Valgrind errors (I don't know whether the Valgrind warnings I observe are due to this line of code). Am I worrying too much or should any such piece of code be protected by TRACE("=> 1/ %x (%s)\n", dwRet, LOWORD(dwRet) ? "" : debugstr_w(lpstrRet)); (actually, an even more convoluted test is needed because of MCI_INTEGER_RETURNED) Or is it not worth careing about because it's within TRACE() only? I assume that debugstr_w is not executed when that channel is not traced. Correct? Regards, Jörg Höhle
