Re: registry TODO

It and the windows 2000 format was documented/reversed for samba and the linux ntchpwd bootdisk projects. If I remeber right Eirc Kohl offered to release some of his work to Wine for the binary format so you might want to ping him about the implementation details.

I rm -fr'd my reactos tree and did a clean CVS checkout and things are cool now. I guess the current build system left some crap around that caused problems. Nice work btw on the smss stuff. How much trouble do you think it would be possible to make a native mode console application in smss like the Windows recovery console? I have been thinking about doing this for the boot CD for a while but would like to make it more powerful than the Windows recovery console.

What I think of doing is: keep the boot registry as is (more less). Put in on wine/wine/config a key system that enables a "plugin" system of registry loaders/savers. Builtin plugins are current format and Windows binary format. Other formats could be easily implemented; candidates could be XML, MySQL etc... The system I thought of would also save the hives and sub trees, to the files/plugins it was loaded from. Each plugin could also implement a write behind so Data don't get lost in case of a crash or power lost. Good point with the on demand-loading/cache of keys. It should be done this way. So in summary: 1. Implement a Memory registry with plugin drivers and mount semantics. This driver goes here, that driver mounts there. 2. Implement 2 basic drivers: Wine builtin format, Windows binary format. 3. Enable dynamic load of external drivers. The Initial registry system is always loaded from system.reg builtin format which is also the "fstab" file of the registry. At minimum every thing is exactly like now one (two) files builtin format, and that's it. At the maximum it can be highly object oriented with per user, per application, per group management. Please tell me what you think. Any libraries I should look into? How is ReactOS's current (future) system? Free Life Boaz

RC1 of ros 0.2.6 is out

by Robert Köpferl

Hi, I just finished uploading the RC1 to sf.net The last build worked quite well, but improvements to the branch are welcome. If no major issues occour, we may perhaps advance to Release as next step, already. BTW: RosApps is from 2003, still. They are already in the installation, aren't they? So should they be hidden?

Serial port IRQ detection

by Mark Junker

Hi, is there a requirement for the serial port IRQ detection? This was also part of my old sources but currently I simply don't know how to do it inside the ReactOS serial driver. BTW: How does the "serenum" stuff works? Regards, Mark

There is a app compatiblity shell extention that Thomas wrote that is supposed to do it under Windows. Anyone know if this really works under ReactOS?
