***** this file is horribly outdated - please update ! *****
For information on how to post a useful bug report, please
read documentation/bugreports.
This is intended to be a place where you should look first if
you want to contribute to Wine development. Add your e-mail
address to the corresponding entry if you are working on/have
done something for one of the problems. You are encouraged to
add new entries and, more importantly, remove those for the
bugs you fixed ;-)
------------------------------------------------------------
As of Jun 1998 -
General:
* TrueType, .FON rasterizer.
* Incomplete thread/process scheduling support in Win32 code.
* Threading for some operating systems still missing. (NetBSD? SCO? OS/2?)
* Very alpha printing code using win16 drivers.
* internal PostScript driver not finished. [h.davies1@physics.ox.ac.uk]
* Extremely alpha Win95 interface code (some apps, like Opera, choke on it).
* No OLE2 and OLE32 support (including OLE2 interfaces etc.).
(started work on pidl-handling, IShellFolders IEnumIdLists
and SH* functions juergen.schmied@metronet.de)
(Corel has been working on it)
* No MS Video support. [just started, marcus@jet.franken.de]
* COMDLG32 support not complete yet [bertho@akhphd.au.dk]
* COMMCTRL/COMCTL32 support in progress [ekohl@abo.rhein-zeitung.de].
* No manual pages describing the various Windows calls.
- You can find information about most of the Win32 API calls
on the www.microsoft.com (go to 'search').
* A lot of the extensions to the GDI that were introduced with Win32 are
not supported at all or only in a very rudimentary way. (World transforms,
arc direction, GM_ADVANCED to name but a few)
Miscellaneous:
* Windows95 telnet.exe and NT 3.51 telnet.exe, and Borland Delphi
is known to go into recursion with infinite resizing, possibly
due to scroll bars.
* mIRC 'commands' menu stays on top and will not refresh.
* mIRC is unable to show 'Options' dialog.
* Tab switching in mIRC 'Setup' dialog stops erasing background
after a random number of repetitions.
* GDI memory leaks apparent in Free Agent 16-bit.
* nBytesWidth in CURSORICONINFO is bogus for some bpp
(doesn't reflect the fact that bits are packed and 16-bit aligned).
* Progman and AOL complain about being unable to convert bitmaps
(probably because of bytes width stuff).
* Netscape displays partially downloaded inline graphics with
wrong offsets.
you want to contribute to Wine development.
* Text alignment problems in Word and Write (variable pitch fonts)
.
Wine is still alpha software and is very incomplete
.
* Font mapper weights are rather crude.
If you want to help Wine project you can:
* "Cursor XXXX has more than 1 bpp!"
* visit Bugzilla (http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/) for
list of existing bugs. Metabug 406 lists bugs which are
reasonably simple to fix even for someone new to Wine.
Have a look at it and choose subject you are insterested in.
http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/showdependencytree.cgi?id=406
You are also welcome to help with Bugzilla - add new bugs, confirm,
remove duplicates, test fixes, etc.
*
SGI window manager treats Wine windows as topmost.
*
create unit tests for Windows API
* KDE window manager and icewm put popup windows like menus
below the main window.
* contribute to the Wine documentation
* Write shows blank space instead of Paintbrush OLE1 object ( GetDIBits()? ).
* subscribe wine-devel, wine-user mailing lists, participate
in the discussions
* AllocCSToDSAlias() shouldn't alloc alias for the same segment multiple
times.
* Some programs expect that menu window handles stay the same all the time.
(chemdraw). This implies that the menu popupwindows are just hidden, not
destroyed in real Windows.
* run Windows applications, port open-source Windows applications
to Wine, fix bugs you found, enter bugs you can't fix to Bugzilla.
Enter information you discovered to the
Wine Application Database (http://appdb.codeweavers.com/).
Where to look in source files:
* grep for FIXME in the source files
* grep for FIXME in the source files.
