Alexandre Julliard d471965c9e Release 951212
Mon Dec 11 19:08:55 1995  Alexandre Julliard  <julliard@sunsite.unc.edu>

	* [misc/lstr.c]
	Replaced wine_strncpy() by a 32-bit version of lstrcpyn(), since
 	they do the same job.

	* [tools/build.c]
	Fixed __attribute__((stdcall)) to make it compile with gcc
	versions under 2.7. Doesn't mean it will run OK though...

Sat Dec 09 13:22:58 1995  Cameron Heide  <heide@ee.ualberta.ca>

	* [include/kernel32.h] [include/winerror.h]
	Added file attribute definitions and more error codes.

	* [win32/error.c]
	Added some rudimentary errno-to-Win32 error conversion
	code.

	* [win32/file.c]
	Added to GetFileInformationByHandle, filled in some known
	error codes, and switched to dprintf_win32.

	* [win32/time.c]
	Added GetLocalTime.

Fri Dec  8 14:37:39 1995  Jim Peterson <jspeter@birch.ee.vt.edu>

	* [controls/combo.c]
	Converted functions of the type LONG _(HWND,WORD,LONG) to the type
	LRESULT _(HWND,WPARAM,LPARAM) where needed.

	* [include/libres.h]
	Restructured libres prototypes to closer match the windows API.

	* [include/windows.h]
	Changed several API prototypes' parameter types from 'short' to INT,
	which is #defined as short in the emulator, but is a normal int in
	WINELIB32.  Also changed SEGPTR from DWORD to void* when WINELIB32.
	(This creates a lot of warnings at library-compile time, but less
	warnings at app-compile time.  I'll remove the warnings soon.)

	* [loader/resource.c]
	Fixed parameter mismatch in call to LIBRES_FindResource().  Changed
	various implementations of the LIBRES_* API functions.

	* [loader/signal.c]
	Deleted local 'i' from win_fault(), since it was unused.

	* [objects/bitblt.c]
	Mirrored changes to include/windows.h mentioned above.

	* [toolkit/hello3.c]
	Changed LoadMenuIndirect() call to LoadMenu() to test the new
	resource registration technique.

	* [toolkit/libres.c]
	Removed definition of 'struct resource' and fixed bugs in the resource
	implementation.  Implemented LIBRES_FindResource.

	* [windows/graphics.c]
	Mirrored changes to include/windows.h mentioned above.

Thu Dec  7 23:15:56 1995     Martin von Loewis <loewis@informatik.hu-berlin.de>

	* [controls/edit.c]
	LOCAL_HeapExists: Changed parameter to HANDLE. For WineLib, return true

	* [controls/listbox.c]
	CreateListBoxStruct: Initialize HeapSel to 0 for WineLib

	* [include/listbox.h]
	change HeapSel from WORD to HANDLE

	* [include/resource.h][rc/winerc.c]
	struct ResourceTable: removed
	struct resource: moved to header file
	autoregister resources if supported by compiler

	* [memory/local.h]
	LOCAL_GetHeap: expect HANDLE rather than WORD
	
	* [toolkit/Makefile.in]
	Add ALLCFLAGS to make hello3

	* [toolkit/heap.c]
	LocalFree, HEAP_Free: handle 0 parameter gracefully

Wed Dec 06 15:34:23 1995  Greg Cooper <cooper@ima-inc.com>

	* [misc/winsocket.c]
	Fixed the msgsnd and msgrcv errors that winsock programs get.

Wed Dec 06 12:47:23 MET 1995 Sven Verdoolaege <skimo@dns.ufsia.ac.be>
	
	* [if1632/kernel.spec]
	Fixed _hread and _hwrite return type

	* [if1632/relay32.c] [loader/pe_image.c]
	Hacked loading of PE-dll's in

	* [win32/advapi.c]
	Added stubs for RegCreateKeyEx, RegSetValueEx, RegQueryValueEx

	* [win32/file.c]
	Added stubs for OpenFileMapping, CreateFileMapping, MapViewOfFileEx

	* [win32/process.c]
	Added stubs for CreateMutexA, ReleaseMutex, CreateEventA,
	WaitForSingleObject, DuplicateHandle, GetCurrentProcess
	
Mon Dec 04 13:06:37 1995   Bernd Schmidt <crux@pool.informatik.rwth-aachen.de>

	* [include/wine.h] [misc/lstr.c]
	Define wine_strncpy(). This function does not pad the buffer with 
	zeroes like GNU strncpy(), which might break some Windows programs
	that pass bogus size arguments.

	* [loader/module.c]: GetModuleFileName(),
	[misc/commdlg.c]: GetFileTitle(),
	[misc/keyboard.c], [misc/lstr.c]: lstrcpyn(),
	[misc/ole2nls.c], [misc/profile.c], [multimedia/mcistring.c],
	[multimedia/mmsystem.c], [objects/font.c]:
	Use wine_strncpy() where strings are returned to Windows programs.
	
	* [objects/metafile.c]
	PlayMetafile(): Clear the handle table before using it.

	* [misc/shell.c] [misc/main.c]
	Rename SHELL_RegCheckForRoot() to SHELL_Init() and call it from main().
	
	* [misc/profile.c]
	load(): Need to handle comments.
	
	* [toolkit/libres.c]
	Make it compile.
	
	* [windows/nonclient.c]
	Use MAKE_SEGPTR macro in two places where a user heap block used
	to be allocated instead.

Sat Dec 02 16:43:43 1995 Ramon Garcia <ramon@ie3.clubs.etsit.upm.es>

	* [windows/winpos.c]
	In function SetWindowPos: do not redraw the parent of
	a window if the specified window is placed on the top.
	This avoids that ShowWindow(hwnd,1) hides hwnd instead
	of showing it.

Sat Dec 02 11:00:00 1995 Alex Korobka <alex@phm30.pharm.sunysb.edu>

	* [windows/scroll.c]
	Now it can scroll children along with the client region of parent 
        window. Tried to optimize update region calculation. 

	* [windows/mdi.c]
	ScrollChildren function, more other features added. Basically
	a rewrite.

	* [windows/winpos.c] [windows/focus.c]
	Reimplemented window activation and focus handling.

	* [windows/nonclient.c]
	Added new flag WIN_NCACTIVATED.

	* [windows/message.c] [loader/task.c]
	Small changes (to maintain linked list of message queues).

Wed Nov 29 15:51:48 1995  Daniel Schepler  <daniel@shep13.wustl.edu>

	* [include/options.h] [misc/main.c] [windows/defwnd.c]
	  [windows/event.c] [windows/nonclient.c] [windows/win.c] [Wine.man]
	Implemented a -managed option to replace the standard Windows
	frame of top-level windows with the window manager's decorations.
	If a top-level window makes its own frame, this will still show
	up, inside the window manager decorations (I believe ctl3dv2.dll
	would do this, although I can't test this).

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.
