[6074]2
[7542]3 2001-12-04: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
4 - KERNEL32: o parallel port support restricted to physical ports
5 (LAN redirections not supported)
6
[7540]7 2001-12-04: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
8 - COMCTL32: o Hack added for proper resizing of wizard property sheet in
9 CVP. Not sure if it's always correct or whether it has a
10 bad effect on other apps (none found so far).
11
[7536]12 2001-12-03: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
13 - KERNEL32: o put in correct ioctl identifiers for parport support
14 in winioctl.h
[7538]15 o parallel port support (hardware configuration) enabled
[7536]16
[7534]17 2001-12-03: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
18 - KERNEL32: o Use DosSleep in Sleep (don't call WGSS)
19 o GetThreadPriority: return priority stored in TEB
20 o Rewrote SetThreadPriority; allow it to change priority
21 classes too. WGSS only changes delta in SetThreadPriority
22 and class in SetPriorityClass (but that one affects the whole
23 process, so it is rarely used by applications)
24 THREAD_PRIORITY_IDLE -> PRTYC_IDLETIME, 0
25 THREAD_PRIORITY_LOWEST -> PRTYC_REGULAR, PRTYD_MINIMUM
26 THREAD_PRIORITY_BELOW_NORMAL -> PRTYC_REGULAR, -15
27 THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL -> PRTYC_REGULAR, 0
28 THREAD_PRIORITY_ABOVE_NORMAL -> PRTYC_REGULAR, 15
29 THREAD_PRIORITY_HIGHEST -> PRTYC_REGULAR, PRTYD_MAXIMUM
30 THREAD_PRIORITY_TIME_CRITICAL -> PRTYC_TIMECRITICAL, 0
31 o SetPriorityClass; just return success for now
32
[7526]33 2001-12-02: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
34 - USER32: o Don't send WM_SIZE message to dialog before it receives
35 WM_INITDIALOG
36 (winzip 8.0 and Opera crash when sending this message too soon)
37 (TODO: check in NT if this is really correct)
[7528]38 - COMCTL32: o Restored old property sheet code as latest Wine version
39 causes too many new problems.
[7526]40
[7522]41 2001-12-01: knut st. osmundsen <kosmunds@csc.com>
42 - CRTDLL: o Include ctype.h from dir.c and string.c. (Noted by Ye][ow.)
43
[7520]44 2001-12-01: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
45 - KERNEL32: o Fixed GetThreadTEB macro & GetCurrentThreadId
46 (completely broke debug build among other things)
47
[7517]48 2000-12-01: Yuri Dario <mc6530@mclink.it>
49 - USER32: o MENU_FindItem: extra check added for loops in menus
50
[7503]51 2001-11-30: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
52 - KERNEL32: o heapstring.cpp: improvement on HEAP_malloc, HEAP_free,
53 HEAP_realloc, HEAP_size
[7512]54 o acceleration on GetCurrentThreadId()
[7503]55 - SHELL32: o use HEAP_xxx functions for frequently called APIs
56 - ODINPROF: o Note: SET PROFILEHOOKS=1 before doing NMAKE PROFILE=1
57 This will enable the profiler in ODINCRTP.DLL
58 (use release build ODINPROF.DLL), generates (pid).prof
59 on process exit.
60 - * o fixed out-of-scope TRACE,FIXME,WARN macros
61
[7498]62 2001-11-30: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
63 - USER32: o Changed menu hilite background to the color used by PM
64 (OS/2 look)
[7507]65 o DIALOG_IsAccelerator resync (Wine)
[7522]66 - KERNEL32: o Partly implemented PurgeComm
[7514]67 - * o Removed all the TRACE, FIXME & WARN redefinitions
68 (temporary hack for better logging; didn't affect the release
69 build anyway)
70 TODO: we need better logging in Wine code
[7498]71
[7493]72 2001-11-29: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
73 - KERNEL32: o Split dosdevice.cpp from stubs.cpp
74 (DefineDosDevice, QueryDosDevice)
75 o Fixed CDROM ioctls and disk access
76 (previous fix failed or cause possible regression)
77 - OLEAUT32: o olepicture.c: fixed null pointer exception
78 cause: our TRACE, FIXME, etc. debugtools macros all
79 go out of scope of a braceless if-statement before!
80 Therefore, we're getting false (error) messages or
81 even crashes. (to be fixed)
82
[7486]83 2001-11-29: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
84 - COMCTL32: o Listview: invalidate entire item for ownerdraw control
85 (don't exclude report margin)
[7488]86 - KERNEL32: o Fixed disk access (yesterday's changes broke it)
[7496]87 - SHELL32: o Removed wrong call to ctordtorInit that caused the disk
88 access problems in the custom build.
[7486]89
[7477]90 2001-11-28: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
91 - KERNEL32: o fixes in ::CreateFile calls (return codes must be Win32)
92 o fixes in symbolic link management
93 o marked some important TBDs for phys. disk mgmt!
94 o fixed HMCOMM to accept (what a good idea)
95 \\.\COM1, COM1, COM1: but not "\\.\COM1:" (NT4SP6)
96 o added support for AUX->COM1, PRN->LPT1, CON->CONOUT$
97 o added NUL device
98
[7470]99 2001-11-28: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
100 - KERNEL32: o WaitCommEvent fixes (must reset overlapped event semaphore &
101 store result of overlapped operation in parameter)
[7473]102 o Removed symbolic link for \\.\. Adding this is a very bad idea
103 as CreateFile calls for device driver will be routed to files.
104 Probably causes even more problems.
[7470]105 - INCLUDE: o winbase.h: CBR_xxxx definitions wrong
106
[7467]107 2001-11-27: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
108 - KERNEL32: o added \\.\ as standard symbolic link to the local namespace
109 This is the clean way for alternative device names,
110 local kludges in the device handlers should be avoided.
111 o fix in name resolver
112
[7460]113 2001-11-27: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
114 - WSOCK32: o Missing FS wrapper macros added
[7462]115 - KERNEL32: o Accept \\.\COMx as name for COM ports
116 - USER32: o EnumChildWindow bugfix
[7460]117
[7455]118 2001-11-26: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
119 - KERNEL32: o Implemented CancelIo & GetOverlappedResult for serial comm
120 o Preliminary work on overlapped IO for serial comm
[7452]121
[7448]122 2001-11-24: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
123 - KERNEL32: o Custom build fix; check for double call for inittermKernel32
[7450]124 o More informative message when non-existing api is called.
125 Now displays dll + function name or ordinal.
[7448]126
[7441]127 2001-11-23: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
128 - KERNEL32: o minor work in parallel port support (ioctls)
129 o "Kernel Object Namespace" -> handlenames.cpp introduced
130 (yet inactive)
131
[7437]132 2001-11-23: knut st. osmundsen <kosmunds@csc.com>
133 - Misc. Makefiles: o Corrected the descriptions (on request from Ye][ow).
134
[7429]135 2001-11-22: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
136 - KERNEL32: o Check volume label during IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_GEOMETRY to
137 see if the media has been changed or removed.
138 o Implemented WriteFile & GetFileType for disk handles
139 (write currently only allowed for drive A)
[7432]140 - DSOUND: o Renamed DllGetClassObject & DllCanUnloadNow to avoid name
141 conflicts in the custom build.
[7429]142
[7424]143 2001-11-22: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
144 - ODINPROF: o initial version
145 PROFILE images using ODINCRTP generate a <pid>.prof file
146 (the optimized release build of ODINPROF should be used)
[7426]147 No source code modification required.
[7424]148 Problem: mapsym seems to corrupt kernel32.sym
[7434]149 - KERNEL32: o additions to parallel port support
[7424]150
[7411]151 2001-11-21: knut st. osmundsen <kosmunds@csc.com>
152 - src/makefile:
153 o Added guidlib to NOTDLLS.
154
[7407]155 2001-11-21: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
156 - COMCTL32: o Tooltips bugfixes (wrong pointer used to free memory)
157 - USER32: o GetMenu: check that window menu is indeed a menu and not an id
158 (fixes failed assertion in ZOC)
159 o Groupbox fix: if text changes; erase top border + old text
160
[7402]161 2001-11-20: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
162 - USER32: o Destroy CD notification window during dll unload
[7405]163 o Focus fix for dialog windows
164 Experiments in NT4 show that dialogs that are children don't
165 receive focus. Not sure if this is always true. (couldn't
166 find any info about this in the SDK docs)
[7402]167
[7395]168 2001-11-19: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
169 - GUIDLIB: o Library with all GUIDs used by Odin
170 - COMDLG32, OLE32, OLEAUT32, SHLWAPI, SHELL32:
171 o Removed guid source files and link with guidlib.lib
172
173 2001-11-18: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
[7380]174 - WS2_32: o Compile fix
175 - OLEAUT32: o Don't include guid file in custom build library
176
[7395]177 2000-11-18: Yuri Dario <mc6530@mclink.it>
[7411]178 - USER32: o WM_SETTEXT (unicode) fix
[7372]179 (latest changes broke Opera among other things)
180
[7363]181 2001-11-16: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
182 - COMCTL32: o LISTVIEW_UpdateScroll update (from old control)
183 - USER32: o Disallow nested calls to SetScrollRange. This is most likely
184 not the right fix, but it works so far without negative side
185 effects.
186 (fixes crash in CVP listview with 4+ items)
[7367]187 - GDI32: o Removed line draw speedup. If I have to choose between
188 a performance loss of a few clock cycles and a code size
189 increase of 2k, I prefer the 1st option.
[7369]190 - WSOCK32: o ODINWRAP changes break winsock. This code still depended
[7411]191 on FS save/restore. Now added a wrapper header for all
[7369]192 OS/2 socket functions.
[7363]193
[7356]194 2001-11-16: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
195 - ODINWRAP: o don't generate any frame procedure for RELEASE build
196 anymore (even no FS: wrapper (meanwhile superfluous))
197 -> significant performance gain for logged micro functions
198 - KERNEL32: o heap speedup (30%)
[7362]199 - GDI32: o minor line drawing speedup
[7356]200
[7350]201 2001-11-14: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
202 - KERNEL32: o fixed infinite loop in PE loader for corrupted or
203 misinterpreted PE images (Opera 6)
[7352]204 - OLEAUT32: o fixed Null pointer exception in VariantTimeToDosDate
[7350]205
[7344]206 2001-11-14: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
207 - KERNEL32, USER32, COMCTL32, SHELL32, OLE32:
208 o Removed unnecessary string copy operation changes (heap -> stack)
209 Performance improvement is minimal at best and stack
210 corruption is MUCH harder to locate than heap corruption.
211
[7339]212 2001-11-13: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
[7341]213 - fastdep: o IPF support.
214
215 2001-11-13: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
[7339]216 - KERNEL32: o provided faster alternatives to HEAP_strdupXXX
217 ... which operate on stack only (STACK_strdupXXX)
218 This could slightly reduce heap pressure.
219 - USER32: o avoid unnecessary strcpy/strlen when get/setting window text
220
[7329]221 2001-11-13: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
222 - KERNEL32: o Added missing entry in debug log table for hmparport
223 (fixes crash in debug build with selective logging)
224 - GDI32: o CalcBitmapSize bugfix
225 o SetDIBitsToDevice workaround for bug in Matrox driver.
226 When blitting 32 bpp data, the GpiDrawBits call will
227 fail with an insufficient memory error. When that happens,
228 convert data to 24 bpp and try again.
229 (TODO: This can happen in more functions!!)
230 o Fixes for wrong bit masks in several functions (24 & 32 bpp)
[7331]231 o Refuse DeleteObject for DEFAULT_GUI_FONT handle
[7329]232
[7326]233 2001-11-12: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
234 - ODINWRAP: o improved thread call path tracking
235 (now collects i. e. HEAP_malloc->HeapAlloc paths)
236
[7324]237 2001-11-12: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
238 - USER32: o Fix for calculating font size for a dialog box
239
[7320]240 2001-11-11: knut st. osmundsen <kosmunds@csc.com>
241 - KERNEL32: o Only declare OS/2 AFFINITY stuff if it isn't there.
242 (Build breaker. Seems like someone has an old toolkit...)
243
[7316]244 2001-11-10: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
245 - KERNEL32: o Implemented Get/SetProcessAffinityMask & SetThreadAffinityMask
246
[7303]247 2001-11-08: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
248 - COMCTL32: o Ported latest Wine property sheet control
249 (fixes some, but not all problems in CVP)
250
[7299]251 2001-11-08: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
252 - KERNEL32: o first shot at parport support
253
[7292]254 2001-11-07: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
255 - USER32: o EndDialog fix for MFC dialog windows
[7295]256 o static control fix: SS_CENTERIMAGE means fill remainder
257 of client area with upper left pixel of bitmap
[7292]258 - KERNEL32: o Fix for applications that use CreateFile to open
259 a named pipe
260
[7291]261 2001-11-07: Patrick Haller <patrick.haller@innotek.de>
262 - WININET: o http, internet: WINE sync
263
[7285]264 2001-11-05: Sander van Leeuwen <sandervl@xs4all.nl>
265 - KERNEL32: o Call old DosOpen if DosOpenL not available
266
