Added function MODULE_GetPtr() to validate a HMODULE. * [memory/heap.c] Implemented Win32 heap management. * [memory/selector.c] Fix selector limit for huge blocks. Sat Apr 13 00:19:12 1996 Huw D. M. Davies <h.davies1@physics.oxford.ac.uk> * [objects/metafile.c] Fixed memcpy bug to allow memory based metafiles to work. Fri Apr 12 19:25:41 1996 Frans van Dorsselaer <dorssel@rulhm1.leidenuniv.nl> * [controls/edit.c] [controls/EDIT.TODO] Complete rewrite. Everything changed: new features, new bugs. Main addition: WordWrap. Fri Apr 12 20:29:55 1996 Tristan Tarrant <tst@dcs.ed.ac.uk> * [resources/sysres_It.rc] Fixed a few mistakes in the file and resized some of the controls. Fri Apr 12 09:55:13 1996 John Harvey <john@division.co.uk> * [misc/winsocket.c] Fixed broken #if defined that stopped unixware compiling. * [win32/resource.c] Added missing return to end of FindResource32.

Wed Apr 10 18:59:53 1996 Niels de Carpentier <niels@cindy.et.tudelft.nl> * [objects/font.c] Match slightly bigger font if height negative. Mon Apr 8 13:46:15 1996 Deano Calver <deano@rattie.demon.co.uk> * [multimedia/mmsystem.c] Changed read's to FILE_read's in mmsystem to fix mmio bug. Sun Apr 7 21:40:29 1996 Albrecht Kleine <kleine@ak.sax.de> * [misc/commdlg.c] [resources/sysres_En.rc] [resources/sysres_De.rc] Introduced ColorDlgProc() for ChooseColor() and replaced fitting En-,De- resources.

README
This is winerc, the resource compiler for the Wine project. It takes the same input as rc.exe, but generates C files as output. These C files can be linked together with the application, which can access the resource data directly instead of using FindResource/LoadResource/LockResource. The generated C code contains arrays, which represent the resource as if it was obtained from LoadResource. A table to map resource names to pointers is also available. Primary applications are the resources of sysres.dll and a future commdlg.dll, but the use in the library version is possible as well. The expected advantage of using winerc over sysres.dll is a speed improvement, however, actual data to support that claim are not available. The use of winerc might also simplifies the source code. For example, the system menu is managed in the function CopySysMenu (controls/menu.c). A winerc-based implementation would just call return LoadMenuIndirect(_Sysres_SYSMENU); As the resources are already in the Wine image, they are loaded on demand as any other part of a Unix executable image. Current State This is the first release of winerc. It is alpha software, as the rest of Wine is. If you use it for replacing sysres.dll, or if you write other parts of Wine which require resource (like commdlg), you will probably notice a loss in stability. This is especially true for cursor and icon resources, as they are unlikely to work at all. See the TODO file for details. Copying The license for Wine applies for winerc as well.

Bug Reports and Fixes If you find a bug in winerc, you can report it to me, martin@cs.csufresno.edu (Martin von Loewis) or to comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine. If you can fix the bug, send the diffs and ChangeLog entry to julliard@lrc.epfl.ch (Alexandre Julliard).
