WINE error when running windows application

Question

Hello,

A user reports that one of our applications doesn't work under WINE. It runs until he proceeds past a certain form, and then freezes. WINE gives the following output:

~/.wine/drive_c/HeroLab$ wine HeroLab.exe
fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW Option INTERNET_OPTION_CONNECT_TIMEOUT (30000): STUB
fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW INTERNET_OPTION_SEND/RECEIVE_TIMEOUT 30000

fixme:bitmap:CreateBitmapIndirect planes = 0
fixme:bitmap:CreateBitmapIndirect planes = 0
fixme:bitmap:CreateBitmapIndirect planes = 0
fixme:bitmap:CreateBitmapIndirect planes = 0

Can anyone explain these messages to me? I assume they are messages from WINE reporting that we are calling functions in ways that WINE doesn't support, but our code doesn't call CreateBitmapIndirect at all.

How can we locate the source of this problem, and fix our app so it runs under WINE?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Okay Wine is in a constant state of development, you need to find out a few things;

-Which version of wine are you using 1.1.38 is the latest at the time of writing, chances are you might be using an old version whereby the problem your are encountering has been fixed.
-What application is having problems? Have you searched the Application Database? http://appdb.winehq.org/ You can find the current status of running your application under Wine and any of problems users have been encountering.

Answer 2

http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/wininet/internet.c

Read the: InternetSetOptionW body. Most flags are unimplemented. One of way to fix is read Microsoft documentation of this call and find similar, but it is rather impossible.

Answer 3

Debug your own application under Wine. Send feedback to Wine developers.

For example: WINEDEBUG=+GDI wine ./HeroLab.exe
