Discussion: Release policy changes
by Aleksey Bragin 10 Dec '06

10 Dec '06

Hello, I'd like to hear opinions regarding the change in release policy. The proposition: Release happens on a strict time basis, like once per month. That means, at the end of the month we look for the best revision inside this month (probably which is closer to the end of the month), branch from it, apply all fixes (if any), and release. Disadvantage: a few coming releases' quality will be overall lower, there might be things like 0.3.25 (if release frequency is set too high, and this is not a disadvantage actually). Advantages: in the long run quality goes up, more developers due to higher release rate, more publicity, people will finally realize it's an alpha product, more bugs reported, no signs of a dead project (I doubt there are healthy projects doing 1 release per year :)). Any thoughts are appreciated. With the best regards, Aleksey Bragin.

The first newsletter
by Dana Burkart 10 Dec '06

10 Dec '06

Okay, I'm in the middle of composing a test newsletter that will hopefully be accepted. I would like all the developers to respond to this with a short description of what they're currently working on so I can be as accurate as possible in that section of it (and I don't want to forget anyone). Thank you.

Hello guys. Sorry for bothering you again but can someone pls commit my Greek keyboard layout file? I want it to be included to version 0.3.1 - which I suppose will be available soon - so that we can have a true Greek character support with punctuation issues and other stuff. The link is the following http://www.reactos.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1831 And a screenshot with proof of it in action is here http://img148.imageshack.us/my.php?image=greekku9.jpg Thnx in advance!

Gdi function Polygon
by Timo Kreuzer 01 Dec '06

01 Dec '06

Hi, Recently I have started reading Feng Yuan - Windows Graphics Programming Win32 GDI and found that this is a very interesting part of Windows / ReactOS I'd like to take a closer look to. I started to have a look at this when I noticed 2 things, that made my desk.cpl don't work correctly in ROS: 1.) SetDCPenColor is not implemented (I am currently working on a usermode implemenatation, I have finished GetDCPenColor, GetDCBrushColor is the same, Set... will follow soon.) 2.) Polygon() didn't work as expected. I used it to draw a tiny triangle on a button, but it doesn't look correct. I first thought it was because the triangle was simply too small (didn't show the lowest pixel), but it was because it is redirected to NtGdiPolygon. (instead of calling NtGdiPolyPolyDraw, wich is the way it works in windows. NtGdiPolygon doesn't seem to exist in Windows, so it seems it's currently only a Kernelmode implementation of Polygon and NtGdiPolyPolyDraw seems not to be implemented in ROS yet). Polygon is exspected to automatically close the polygon, but NtGdiPolygon doesn't do this. I will have a closer look on this later and hope I can fix this. My questions: Is there a reason it doesn't do it? Should the closing of the Polygon (simply by adding the first coordinates at the end?) be done in the usermode function (wich is not existing yet) or in the current implementation in win32k? Looking at the gdi code I found out that some things (handle validation for example) seem to be different than in windows. F.e. the reuse counter seems to be ignored. I have written a small GdiTest app to analyse the diffences between Win and ROS (General app is ready, I will write test functions soon, maybe tomorrow) . I'll start by writing some test cases, that I think might fail on ROS. If there's someone who likes to help me writing tests I'd really appreaciate that, just let me know. Then there's another thing that I thought about: Windows has one list of gdiobjects shared between kernel and all processes, although handles are only valid for the process that has created them (only Stockobjects are global). That seems to be a bad idea, I didn't try it yet, but what if a usermode app zeroes out the complete gdi handle table? I guess Windows would crash. And there might be more dangoerous risks, because of that. So why is the table not implemented locally? Some thoughts: Global handle list: + less memory needed - big chance of crashing windows by usermode apps Local handle list - more memory needed + better chance of paging the memory (global list would never be paged as it is always in use) + no chance for a user app to crash windows or crash other apps by messing up the handle table + no more need to veryfy the process member in the handle table entry A shared memory section seems to be a real risky thing. It's big enough to put binary data there and it might be possible to make another process with higher privaliges execute that code.I first thought of the DC's AbortProc, but that is probaly handled by the kernel to not exceed user limits(?). Implementing the handle table locally would not beak any APIs. Only some system apps that use the GdiQueryTable and directly use the table would experience a slightly different behaviour: Only locally created handles would be accessable. Would there be a problem doing that? At last my usermode implementation of GetDCPenColor, I would like some feedback: #define GDI_HANDLE_UPPER_MASK 0xffff0000 #define GDI_HANDLE_GET_UPPER(h) \ (((ULONG_PTR)(h)) & GDI_HANDLE_UPPER_MASK) COLORREF GetDCPenColor(HDC hDC) { PGDI_TABLE_ENTRY pEntry = GdiHandleTable + GDI_HANDLE_GET_INDEX(hGdiObj); if(pEntry->KernelData != NULL) { ULONG Upper = GDI_HANDLE_GET_UPPER(hGdiObj) if ( Upper == GDI_HANDLE_GET_UPPER(pEntry->Type) && GDI_HANDLE_GET_TYPE(Upper) == GDI_OBJECT_TYPE_DC ) { if((HANDLE)((ULONG_PTR)pEntry->ProcessId & ~0x1) == CurrentProcessId) { DC_ATTR* pDCData = (DC_ATTR*)pEntry->UserData if(pDCData) { return pDCData->crPenClr; } } } } return CLR_INVALID; }

ReactOS Newsletter
by Samuel serapion 28 Nov '06

28 Nov '06

I have been an active member of the ReactOS community for some time now. I discovered this project a few months before the 0.2.9 release and was instantly amazed by the smart people and amount of hard work that has gone into this project now spanning a decade. Everyone knows me in #reactos by the name "encoded". Qualifications: - I compile and test ros almost every day, report bugs and participate in developer discussions. - I'm an amature coder, student of computer engineering(www.pupr.edu) - I like to program(a lot), so I understand what's going on pretty well. - I also know a bit of HTML. Goals for the newsletter: Not just the "there where commits about this and that this week" type of publication, I want to write articles about how foo.dll and bar feature work in windows, their current state in ROS. I want to create a medium which gives people outside the close nit ReactOS community a sense of belonging, that sparks the interest of coders and people in general. A medium that actually reflects the current state of affairs in ros, tips, tricks, how tos and even recent bugs and regressions! Note: -I am a full time student and also have a job, so I would prefer a bi-weekly newsletter, but could also work in a weekly time frame if needed. -Those nice little articles about foo.dll and bar features will be dependant(specially the ros side of it) on devs helping out in writing them. -I LOVE REACTOS!!!

I love you? I was JUST talking to Aleksey on how MSVC builds won't be linkable if this doesn't work. Please do this to every single .def file if you have time. -- Best regards, Alex Ionescu Project Lead, TinyKRNL Kernel-Mode Software Design Engineer, ReactOS

I highly dissagree that we should break building of usermode code in MSVC just because someone doesn't have 1 header file which is included with the WDK. If it effects the building of HAL etc so much, then it should be a requirement for those components only, not for wingui/win32dll code. Maybe including a similar header into our own code is a more viable option. Ged.

I know that the problem had nothing to do with the HAL or registry paths, because it came up before too when I added debug prints to fstub. These 6 prints 100% reproduce the problem on my machine with GCC 3.4.5. It is my hope it will do the same for everyone. This is a nasty bug, either stack related or some critical structure is being damaged. I am breaking trunk because it's been here for a long time, but now I found a way to repro it so that we can work together to try finding it. In a way, trunk was always broken, but this patch should force a freeze.

Hello, trunk is frozen from any commits except for fixing that error mentioned in the last commit message ("ndis"-bug). Thanks for understanding, Aleksey Bragin.

freetype cache
by Timo Kreuzer 15 Nov '06

15 Nov '06

Hi, Some time ago, I have done a small fix to make the freetype chache work. It still had the display bug with the original author (tinus) already experienced. I have fixed it now. As far as I have tested it is working correctly. And it speeds up text output by about 300%. Maybe someone should take a look at it. Bugzilla #511 Greetings, Timo

I don't know the state of 0.3.1 at the moment, but from what I remember it was quite stable. Why don't we just spend a day testing it to be sure and then release RC1. 0.3.2 could be branched directly after the 0.3.1 release. Ged.
