Via Vt6102 Net card

Hi all! This is the hivesys.inf PCNet section. I copied fetnd5a.sys to pcnet.sys. I can query network properties w/o a crash! All I get is IPHLPAPI.dll need more work and GetAdapterInfo did not return the expected data. Bus 0, device 18, function 0, Ven 1106/Dev 3065/class 0200. Start->Settings->Settings Menu->Network Properties Select VT6102->Properties, get the VIA PCNet Status Menu, select Properties, get the VIA PCNet Pro~ Menu, select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), select Properties, get the Error menu. Wow! Did not crash! Need to check if I'm on the right track here!

David Hinz wrote: Hey guys, when I just translated format, I stunbled over one thing: What if somebody changed the content of a string after I translated it? After some minutes, I had a easy solution for that problem: The En.rc gets a little line in it's head-comment with a revision number. Each time somebody changes or adds a string in the En.rc, he sets the revision number +1 and so all translators have an easy to control indicator, if they need to translate something or not. But I think one thing should be clear, if there just has been corrected a spelling mistake and not something important, the revision number won't be touched. Now some example headers: in the EN.rc: /* * Moved all hardcoded strings to En.rc. * By Magnus Olsen 2005 * * Revision: 1 */ in my De.rc: /* * Moved all hardcoded strings to En.rc. * By Magnus Olsen 2005 * First German Translation by David Hinz 20051010 * * Translated Revision 1 of En.rc */ This is just an idea, but I think this could save a lot of work on bigger applications than format... Greets, David Hinz --------------------------------------- I agree, in fact i am working in a program to manage translation in reactos, i am using Delphi 2.0 but as i am not much skilled (long time since i used pascal) and my time is on the limit it is going slowly but it should work as follow: Part 1: - You select your language - You select the working directory of reactos source. - The program scans all files for en.rc files and list their directories (as their names are all the same). - With each file the program check a text file with a list of en.rc files, and if it is not there it adds it, and it is shown in the GUI as highlighted (pending translation). - If the file is found in the list, it check if translating language file is current--> if it is not current then the file is highlighted (pending translation). - If the file is found in the list, and found a translation file current--> the file is listed but not highlighted. - It does with all rc files till no more rc files in the directory. Part 2: - On clicking in a file in the listbox (highlighted or not) it will be shown in an Richtext edit panel and besides another panel with the material already translated (if there is any language related file already done), if not, the english text will be shown with the "probable translatable" areas highligthed (those between ""). -A save button, that will save the changes in the second panel automatically into the right directory in a language working copy.

Life after audit
by Mikhail Y. Zvyozdochkin 02 Feb '06

02 Feb '06

Hi all, Steven Edwards wrote at http://www.reactos.org/xhtml/ru/news_page_14.html: "One final note, this audit of the code is going to take a long time. It could take years, but it will happen, this project will come out better than it was before". Whether means it, what all development will be suspended for the period of audit? I understand necessity of audit, but I am afraid, that in a year the urgency of the project will catastrophically fall, and it will hopelessly lag behind from Microsoft :(. I want, that ReactOS have survived... WBR, DarkHobbit

Undocumented APIs
by Casper Hornstrup 01 Feb '06

01 Feb '06

I'd like to put this amendment to the IP policy to a vote, but first let's start with the 7 day discussion period. "If an API or a particular behaviour of an API which is part of the Windows(R) operating system is not publicly documented by Microsoft, then the API or the particular behaviour of the API may only be implemented in ReactOS if there is documentation of published software which depend on the API or the particular behaviour of the API, and which is not only distributed with the Windows(R) operating system. The documentation must be available in the repository." I argue that the more ReactOS differ from Windows, the harder it will be to prove that ReactOS is a derivative work of Windows.

Also, what about using code from 3rd parties which might contain undocumented API's, like Wine for instance?

Flow chart
by Ged Murphy 01 Feb '06

01 Feb '06

Hi all. Would someone be willing to put a flow chart together on moving code from the main branch to the audited branch. I think if something like this is put in place, it would ensure everyone was operating in the same manner. Pasted from IRC when discussing the audit methodologies: <GedMurphy> I understand what qualifies for being 'unclean' (which it seems most of ReactOS will be initially), in which case it should be placed into the intermediate repository. However it isn't clearly stated what happens then. If documentation can't be located or test cases aren't written, how is that code further analized? <sedwards> If the code is 'unclean' then someone need to mark themselves down to rewrite it on the audit page <GedMurphy> but what if it's not unclean, but there is no documentation for it? Is it automatically deemed to be unclean in that case? <GedMurphy> e.g. Exception wrote most of the original part of the network stack. I'm positive this was done in a clean manner, but where are the docs? Does he still have them? What happens if there aren't any or they have been lost? <GedMurphy> does rewriting them automatically mean that code is then ok? <GedMurphy> senario 2. No docs can be found, but someone writes some. If that code was ripped from Windows assemblies but we provide docs, that code might get through. However it doesn't get around the fact that it's been 'borrowed' from Windows dissasemblies. <GedMurphy> at what point in the audit is the code checked for similarities to the Windows counterpart, if at all? <GedMurphy> This is what I mean by set methodologies. Something should be laid down, like a flow chart I would offer to do it, but I think one of our more experienced dev would make a better job. Maybe someone who has done something like this before. I was hoping for one to follow for myself to make sure I don't drop a b*ll*ck :) Ged.

I agree highly with Alex, I honestly think that ReactOS has lost complete focus on what their intentions were originally, I think it is time to go into discussion regarding the re-evaluation of the projects primary goals are, this is not good if it is left unmanaged, but on the other hand, it still would be kind of neat for someone to "re-invent the wheel" Windows NT wouldn't it? ;) -- -David W.

I agree with Steven. This is a good time to restart bugzilla, as it was a mess. Many of the bugs are going to be invalid, or giving different results after the audit. There will also be many new bugs introduced. It's easier to just restart it than keep tabs on the old tree. We should keep better control over it next time. ************************************************************************ The information contained in this message or any of its attachments is confidential and is intended for the exclusive use of the addressee.
