moving discussion of freedce/win32 to freedce-devel
by Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton 20 Sep '05

20 Sep '05

dear reactos developers, after receiving some much appreciated advice i have made a decision: i will not be posting to the ros-dev lists (unless invited to do so). if you wish to discuss the porting of freedce to win32, or to find out about its progress, the freedce-devel mailing list is where i believe that to be most appropriate. l. p.s. banning people on freedce-devel is not even considered let alone discussed. that's mainly because not much is discussed there at all in fact, it's a pretty low-traffic list :) -- -- <a href="http://lkcl.net">http://lkcl.net</a> --

Re: [ros-dev] found it! the "dce porting" header file
by Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton 20 Sep '05

dear hackbunny, regarding your comments about screaming in pain and having teeth pulled because of pthreads-win32, i am so so sorry: i cannot help you there. i don't have the time nor the expertise. i posted (some time afterwards) a message indicating just how many occurrences of DCE exception macros there are - it's literally hundreds. at least pthreads-win32 "gets something going". i believe strongly in "GetItWorking(tm)" and "RewriteLaterAfterProvingItWorks(tm)". i _don't_ believe in throwing everything away just because one way to get things up and running quickly happens not to be the nicest solution. it's a matter of priorities. plus, like i said in my previous reply, DCE exceptions deal with networking and memory errors in a runtime environment where application designers _know_ that there's going to be order-of-milliseconds delays. the usual speed-critical criteria which make people run away screaming about exceptions simply do not apply. l. -- -- <a href="http://lkcl.net">http://lkcl.net</a> --

dear hyperion, sorry for not getting back to this one earlier. regarding hacking up a replacement for the DCE compatible threads library: GREAT. i have made a start by removing the POSIX Draft 4 threading requirements, which has been on the cards for like ... ermmm... five years. see http://sf.net/projects/freedce, cvs requirements, see dcethreads-win32 give me a while to commit what i've done so far. there's actually very little code left, because of pthreads-win32. the only stuff left in dcethreads-win32 is actually the DCE exception handling stuff. which i understand is right in your area of expertise :) btw: one important point. it is NOT, i repeat NOT important that "speed be of the essence". the usual argument "exceptions are expensive and therefore evil" simply doesn't apply. exceptions in DCE are used to catch memory and _networking_ errors. _networking_ errors. order of milliseconds and greater. DCE/RPC applications (the Windows NT 4.0 Domains and Administrative suite are good - and relevant - examples) are _designed_ with networking errors and networking delays taken into consideration and into account. the only instance where someone didn't bother to take networking into account is the idiots who ported win16 (yes, win16, remember we're talking Windows NT 3.1 here - where do you think win32 came from? not from the idiots in the win95 team :) printing API to spoolss (taking the "blobs" as [in,out] parameters - imagine what _that_ does when you have the double-function-call thing, the first one to ask how big a "blob" to allocate). but i digress... -- -- <a href="http://lkcl.net">http://lkcl.net</a> --

[dear ros-dev developers, i'm "on-list" but have "receive postings disabled" because i have far too much on my plate to deal with right now. i'm sorry i haven't got back to people] saveliy, hi, you asked if freedce is useable: the answer is yes [with conditions]. freedce is the _reference_ implementation from http://opengroup.org/dce. and it is autoconf'd. therefore, asking "is it fully featured" the answer is it _is_ the features :) :) now. microsoft "embraced and extended" DCE/RPC actually the 1.1 reference implementation because it's OSF 1.1 Free Software BSD-Compatible license... what am i doing, what am i doing, see this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MSRPC :) i've added certain "missing" features to freedce and it's now on-wire compatible and IDL-compatible with MSRPC. what it _doesn't_ yet do is output MSRPC-binary-compatible stuff which people are referring to on wine lists as "type libraries". hope this helps. l. -- -- <a href="http://lkcl.net">http://lkcl.net</a> --

Are you duplicating the macros or are you using them from there? Sorry I don't have time to review the diff. Thanks Steven __________________________________ Yahoo!

scared! freedce-win32 in a cvs repository near you
by Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton 19 Sep '05

19 Sep '05

right. 48 hours later, i've got a first version of freedce-win32 to try out, which i'm actually a bit frightened of running. just in case it works :) thank goodness for pthreads-win32, otherwise i'd be up small creek. major things todo: in ipnaf.c (actually ipnaf_linux.c or even better ipnaf_win32.c) it's necessary to write an IP-interface-enumeration function. this function presumably will call GetIpAddrTable and go over all the addresses including netmasks and broadcast addresses returning information that the rpc runtime can then "listen" on - one by one. no, freedce doesn't go listening on 0.0.0.0 it binds to all "towers" whatever they're called. because i've commented this code out (stubbed) i am not expecting freedce-win32 to work straight off. once this is working, putting it in place of rpcrt4 should be relatively straightforward (and mostly very very mind numbingly boring) - a matter of "back-converting" and following the lead of dceport.h - microsoft's "wrapper" header file that allows application developers to port DCE/RPC applications to MSRPC. i say "lead" because it's woefully inadequate, representing about 10% of the functions and structs that actually need "converting", because dceport.h contains the "publicly accessible" functions. once _that's_ done, then there will be two remaining tasks: 1) check that pthreads-win32 works under wine (!) and if so, job done, otherwise it's _yet_ another emulation layer to write, but at least the source code of pthreads-win32 represents a damn good starting point 2) mash freedce's typelib output to be compatible with MSRPC binaries. this latter is no small task (but at least it could be considered). the data structures have been _totally_ mashed, by microsoft. gotta run. later. l. -- -- <a href="http://lkcl.net">http://lkcl.net</a> --

freedce-win32 - winsock joy
by Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton 18 Sep '05

18 Sep '05

progress being made. am about 10-15% the way through a compile, having previously got dcethreads to use pthread-win32 by judicious ripping out of large amounts of code. fortunately, elrond has already win32'd tng, so there is stacks of code in tng's lib/util_sock.c to rip off :) -- -- <a href="http://lkcl.net">http://lkcl.net</a> --
