Sun Mar 19 16:30:20 1995 Alexandre Julliard (julliard@sunsite.unc.edu) * [*/*] Implemented a new memory mapping scheme. There's no longer a one-to-one mapping between 16-bit and 32-bit pointers. Please see file DEVELOPERS-HINTS for technical details. * [controls/scroll.c] Fixed bug when dragging mouse in horizontal scrollbars. * [tools/build.c] [if1632/*.spec] Removed support for C callback functions and for re-ordering of the 32-bit arguments, as these were never used. This should allow a more efficient callback scheme to be implemented. * [if1632/olecli.spec] Reduced the number of entries to make the 16-bit code fit in 64k. This limitation will soon be removed. * [loader/ldt.c] Rewrote LDT manipulation functions and implemented LDT_GetEntry(). * [memory/global.c] Rewrote Global*() routines to use the new selector allocation mechanism. * [memory/local.c] Rewrote local heap handling to use a Windows-compatible layout (not really finished yet). Implemented TOOLHELP heap-walking routines. * [memory/selector.c] Implemented LDT manipulation API functions. Tue Mar 14 19:50:28 EST 1995 William Magro (wmagro@tc.cornell.edu) * [windows/defdlg.c] Fixed problem where dialogs closed using the System menu ('Close' item or double click on close box) would hang Wine. Sun Mar 12 14:28:13 1995 Michael Patra <micky@marie.physik.TU-Berlin.DE> * [controls/listbox.c] Removed most of the statements for sending a notification message ListBoxDirectory(), DlgDirSelect(), DlgDirList(): Improved the code; Borland's standard file open dialog will work now. * [misc/main.c], [misc/file.c], [miscemu/int21.c] Added support for new command line option "-allowreadonly". If set an attempt to open a read only file in write mode will be converted to opening it read only (many programs try to open all files in read/write mode even if they only intend to read it - this might cause a few under problems under an unix-like environment where most files are read only for a "normal" user) * [loader/selector.c] GetMemoryReference(): Added support for __AHIncr and __AHShift * [misc/dos_fs.c] DOS_SimplifyPath(): This routine simplifies path names ( e.g., it will change "/usr///local/bin/../lib//a" to "/usr/local/lib/a" ) match(): rewritten * [objects/text.c] TEXT_NextLine(): Removed a bug in the handling of LF's * [miscemu/int21.c] GetFileDateTime(): Fixed. SetFileDateTime() is still broken. Sat Mar 11 19:46:19 1995 Martin von Loewis <loewis@informatik.hu-berlin.de> * [controls/menu.c] ChangeMenu: defaults to MF_INSERT InsertMenu: allow insertion even if position is one after last item * [if1632/Imakefile] [if1632/compobj.spec] [if1632/relay.c] [if1632/storage.spec] [include/dlls.h] Added stubs for STORAGE.DLL and COMPOBJ.DLL * [if1632/user.spec] [windows/message.c] InSendMessage: new function * [include/neexe.h][include/ne_image.c] NE_FixupSegment: fixed handling of additive records * [loader/selector.c] GetEntryDLLName: return NULL instead of pointer to DLL.0 if not found * [loader/signal.c] win_fault: Enter debugger on SIGFPE, too Wed Mar 1 21:47:42 1995 Cameron Heide (heide@ee.ualberta.ca) * [miscemu/int*.c] Various minor modifications to the clock tick counter, FindFirst/FindNext funcs, and DPB handling. |

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. Read the files LICENSE and WARRANTY in the current or any future distribution for details. You can change any source files, and you can add your own copyright notice, as long as you leave the existing copyrights intact. 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 & ChangeLog to wine-new@amscons.com (Bob Amstadt), or send it to me, and I will collect the fixes and forward them to wine-news.
