- killing the advanced part (and moving its chapters in both
developing Wine and Wine archi parts)
- creating a new book on coding practices from i18n.sgml, patches.sgml
and porting.sgml
- creating a new book on some debugging strategies from the old
advanced book and cvs-regression.sgml
- creating a new book on the kernel modules (NTDLL & KERNEL32) from
architecture.sgml / related DLLs and address-space.sgml,
console.sgml, threading.sgml
- creating a new book on the windowing from architecture.sgml / USER32
and related
- creating a new book on the graphical parts from architecture.sgml /
GDI32 and related
Other changes:
- removed list of DLLs and their role (from the modules overview)
- removed in X11 keyboard mapping section the part related to submit a
patch
- fixed regression in 'info symbol XXXX' command (and enhanced
presentation)
- fixed regression in line stepping
- fixed regression in & (address operator) handling
- fixed some bad module reference for local symbols
- enhanced register presentation as local variables
- added warning when launching a debuggee which isn't a Wine app
- removed the 'local' extension of display command (and check when
setting the display whether the expr has a local binding)
- simplified exception handling, and factorized some code when
debugger stops
- fixed recursion in type printing
- now all type-id are stored with the base address of the module which
defines the type (struct dbg_type takes care of this pairing)
- fixed a couple of bugs in display handling
- fixed strings print and examination
Remove old list of contributors that gave to the wpf.
Link to history page in question asking about wine's history.
Change WineX name to Cedega.
Use current wine version in answer.
unload a module (and it's debugging information), and a process
without pain
- portabiblity to another CPU should be easier now (CPU dependent backend)
- speed up memory allocation
- stabs related fixes:
+ now correctly handling symbol's size
+ blocks {} in functions are now correctly recognized and stored
(also applies to local variables scoping)
+ better basic types management (less wild guesses in the code)
+ full support of inline functions (source stepping now shows the
code in .h files for example)
- removal of external debugger (attaching with gdb is just fine to
debug winedbg)
- fixed a couple of issues for symbol address handling (address
lookup, incorrect type binding)
- winedbg now has a man page
