Build breakage
by Alex Ionescu 26 Jun '05

26 Jun '05

Hi, I am currently working to convert win32k to NDK, which is the final component still using the old headers. This creates a lot of conflicts and issues between trunk and my local changes, and I'm trying to commit them bit-by-bit instead of a gigantic patch. As such, unfortunately, HEAD revision will be broken for another 30 minutes. These should be the last large header changes, and trunk will be stabilzed after the next one or two patches. Thank you for your understanding. Best regards, Alex Ionescu

Proposed change to Bugzilla setup
by Ge van Geldorp 26 Jun '05

26 Jun '05

Currently, the "Initial Owner" of bug reports is set based on the component selected in the bug report. Most of the components still have Vizzini as the initial owner. Since he left the project, that doesn't make much sense anymore. I'd like to change all initial owners to "ros-bugs(a)reactos.com", a new mailing list. Subscribers to that list would then get notifications of new bug submissions. This type of setup seems to work for a lot of open source projects. If there are no objections I'll create the list and switch Bugzilla on Thursday. Gé van Geldorp.

Who am I? Well I guess I'm what you could call a typical reactos 'user' in that I occaisionally download the latest releases to see how things are progressing. Personally, I know that there is progress being made but only because I follow this list, but I'm sure there are plenty of others who don't and just check the site for a new release every now and then (or subscribe to the freshmeat release notices etc). Now, I agree with other comments that if a new release (either 0.3 or 0.2.7) comes out and there are no immediately visible improvements to the user then it could cause trust issues. And on the other hand if there aren't any releases for a while then it looks from the outside like the project is stagnating. Which is why I think the above idea is a good one - if I've downloaded 0.2.6 in the past and a 0.2.6.1 comes out 2 months later, then I know not to expect too many noticable changes, but it indicates to me that there is at least progress behind the scenes. And when the 0.2.7 comes out I should expect some new features around but nothing breathtakingly new. And when 0.3 came out I'd be hitting the download ASAP to see what major new developments are now afoot. So I think with the regular interval releases, but making sure they are marked to indicate what sort of release they are, means everyone knows where they stand. Cheers Derek

[Crash] Hovering over Administration in start menu

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 When I hover over the start menu item "Administration" ROS crashes and goes to the "You can switch of the computer now" screen. The debugger isn't started. How to get more information here? I'm using current SVN in qemu 0.7.0.

Re: [ros-dev] NDIS development

Driver writers tend to > ignore such warnings. You have a point, but I checked their DDK and it's not described there (it's an alias for PVOID in their DDK). Its members appear only in our DDK. I've been snooping a little through their ndis.sys and it seems that their structure has some extra members, like pointers to lists of used packets and stuff like that. I guess it's safe then to add a few variables to help in the implementation. I also saw another interesting thing: the MS ndis.sys doesn't have all the functions listed in the DDK. A few of them are declared as exports but not implemented. Best regards, Andrei Homescu

NDIS development
by Andrei Homescu 24 Jun '05

24 Jun '05

Hello! I've been studying the sources for ndis.sys for a while and I started writing some functions, until now simple ones (wrappers for kernel calls). I would like to implement NdisAllocatePacketPoolEx and NdisPacketPoolUsage, but I don't think I can without modifying NDIS_PACKET_POOL in w32api/include/ddk/ndis.h. Is that data structure internal to ndis.sys or is publicly documented (and thus I can't touch it)? I would like to add a couple of new members to count the overflow packets and the used packets. I've also been reading "Undocumented Windows NT" and I have a few questions regarding some legal issues. Are the function declarations for documented functions copied&pasted from the DDK? The undocumented function declarations are obtained by disassembly of Windows sources? Doesn't snooping around kernel code violate any copyright law? Best regards, Andrei Homescu
