AX=0x440A (check if handle is remote) added. * [multimedia/mmsystem.c] Moved mciSendString to mcistring.c. * [multimedia/mcistring.c] New file, string interface for MCI (not complete, not thoroughly tested). * [multimedia/audio.c] IOCTL prints errors; one paranoid check disabled. * [misc/file.c] Misc operator precedence fixes. * [if1632/gdi.spec] [objects/bitblt.c] Stub for FastWindowFrame (parameters not correct).

Release 950727 Sat Jul 22 22:39:09 IDT 1995 Michael Veksler <e1678223@tochnapc2.technion.ac.il> * [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.

DDE support for Wine
====================
Wine emulator is able to run MS-Windows 3.1 applications under Linux
(Linux is a UNIX clone) . Wine is also a toolkit allowing MS-Windows
applications to compile under Linux. Wine is a world-wide Internet
project with more than 20 developers. Wine is still under development
so many vital MS-Windows features are still missing.
DDE is Dynamic Data Exchange used for communication between MS-Windows
applications. This project adds DDE capabilities into Wine. The new
improved Wine will be able to send messages and share memory between
two different Wine processes.
This project uses System-V IPC mechanisms to implement DDE.
Besides sharing memory handles and sending DDE messages, Wine processes
are synchronize to emulates MS-Windows non-preemptive task switching.
(MS-Windows switches tasks only on given instructions). This is done
without hurting the performance or stability of a single Wine process.
The project adds DDE to Wine emulator and to the toolkit. This allows
old MS-Windows applications to be compiled for UNIX, and have DDE
working among them.
