Applications / Re: What happend to XUL.DLL?
« on: August 08, 2015, 09:44:35 pm »
Hallo Joop,
Didn't know something like "-Dbrowser.cmd", is there a list of such commands.
This did work with my setup, much better than preloading. Thanks for that.

No, there is no list of such commands. Yesterday I spent one whole day digging into the problem that you had. I went to your website to get directions on how to get jAlbum working with eComStation and I downloaded jAlbum.zip via the link that you provided. I also downloaded JAlbum_J160.zip from your website and modified it to suit my environment. This way I could recreate the "Couldn't load xul.dll" error. Then I searched the web to find out how to launch firefox from jAlbum and I visited their website. On their forum I found hints on how to do that, but that did not work. I could however download BrowserLauncher.java from that forum. It was actually offered in response to a question from a guy named JoopN (does this ring a bell?) way back in october 2009. With the help of this source code and a lot of experimenting (the comments in the code differ from how it actually works) I arrived at my solution.

You could try and use javaw instead of java to avoid the display of intermediate text  windows.

For jAlbum 11.6.17 and Firefox ESR 31.8.0 I used
Code: [Select]
@echo off
set classpath=
set beginlibpath=d:\programs\openjdk6\bin
set path=d:\programs\openjdk6\bin
cd g:\jalbum
g:
java -Dbrowser.cmd="g:\firefox\firefox!el.exe" -Dbrowser.arg0="$url" -Xmx500M -jar JAlbum.jar
I don't have a firefox!.env file so firefox!l.exe would be better.

I am doing the same thing as Andi B. but I am using Seek and Scan Files. I search separately for *.exe and for *.dll files with the text string: nwiapi. Then I use a text browser to look for readable text in those files . I also use bldlevel on those files. Sometimes I'll search again using portions of the readable text I found with bldlevel.

Hi Martin, this is what I found:

ATMDATA.DAT - This file contains a list of aliases and filenames separated by a '>' for Japanese ATM fonts. It has references for User Defined Characters (UDC) of the HeiseiKakuGothic and HeiseiMincho fonts. The IBM supplied CIDFont names are IBJHKGW5.CID for Japanese Heisei Kaku Gothic (JHKG), and IBJHMNW3.CID for Japanese Heisei Mincho (JHMN). See g5445854.pdf for more information. It seems to me that ATMDATA.DAT is a leftover from using Type Transformer.

DOSRFICO.DLL - DosRefreshIcons dll for System Installation. Used by RSPINST.EXE - OS/2 V3 Response File Installation.

FKA.DLL - Function Key Area DLL - Used by LXLITE.EXE and it seems that PMMERGE.DLL loads it. EPMKWDS.C knows its ordinal functions such as ORD_FKAINIT. These are defined a.o. in the BSEORD.H of the toolkit.

FILEVER.DLL - OS/2 File Version Check. INSTALL.DLL and NPFI.DLL are using it. CHECKASD.EXE - Check ASD Features Utility is using it too.

NWAPI.DLL - Network generic API's. NWDDE.EXE is using it.

SYSFONT.DLL - Used by MIRRORS.DLL and contains SYSFONT #FONTRES CONTINUOUSSCALING : Sysfont, whatever that is, and OS/2 FONT bitmaps of the Mirrors-EGA, Mirrors-OEM-EGA, Mirrors-VGA, Mirrors-OEM-VGA, Mirrors-XGA, Mirrors-OEM-XGA fonts.

Applications / Re: USBLib (USBCalls, USBResmg, USBJoy) license?
« on: June 14, 2015, 09:05:23 am »
Hi Martin,

I had a closer look at the original usbresmg.sys sources and although most of of the files claim to be Aladdin licensed, these appear to be derived from DDK samples. This means that the DDK license applies to these sources. The applicable sources of usbres03.zip are therefore rightfully not open to the public. That restriction cannot be lifted.

Wim.

Will this mean also that your "USB Resource Manager" (that you already share with source code) should be under "Aladdin Free Public License", or your USBCalls is a different thing and do not uses Markus Montkowski work?

The source code of my "USB Resource Manager" is hosted on the netlabs usb repository. It is based on the original source code from Markus Montkowski after it had been modified by Dmitry Froloff. I have done a lot of cleanup (removing old code that never worked) and adding code to implement a.o. support for isochronous transfers.  From the Aladdin Free Public License of the original work it follows that the source code must be made available.

Do you think I can mix your USBCalls.C on the USBLib github repository, or not ?

The USBCALLS.DLL and USBRESMG.SYS form a matched set. It is unwise to have one without the other. When you mix USBCalls.C on the USBLib github repository then you are left with an incompatible set. Do not do that. In the readme of usbres03.zip I refer to the applicable sources that are in my private branch at netlabs.

Hi Roderick,

Would it not make sense to see if Netlabs can host the sources as thats where they have been for the last decade or so. As far as I can tell from the timeline thats where all developers who work on the code check it in.

Yes, that makes sense. But the applicable sources of usbres03.zip are right now not open to the public. I have no idea how that could be changed without running the risk that closed sources of the other usb drivers become public too. May be the solution is to prove a snapshot in a zip file like was done before with the usb_20020812.zip and usb_20070121.zip files. Or maybe I should just include these in a usbres04.zip file. That would be the safest.

Wim.

The way I see it. First of all the first lines of the LICENSE file clearly state:

Code: [Select]
All source code and other software components in this CVS repository (USB)
are Copyright Markus Montkowski. Are covered by the license
below.   

Therefore all "Licensed Material -- Property of IBM" files must be removed.

GENJOY - Only the GENSEGS.ASM file must be replaced with something else.
USBJOY -  Only the JOYSEGS.ASM file must be replaced with something else.
SYSLOG - The LOGSEGS.ASM could be used to create these something else.
INCLUDE - Only keep the USBLOG.H file.
MISC - Only keep the USBLOG.C file.

can someone email me undot.cmd and who wrote it ?
I'll see if its ok to also put it on [ian at] os2site.com.

I've had several yahoo accounts last decade but they kept cancelling them due to
complaints (no, I have no idea what I'm guilty of and don't care) so I don't have
access to the files section.
The author is Rob Hamerling. It is on his website. http://www.robh.nl/zip/undot.zip

Hi Martin:
I was not thinking about that aspect of a replacement.  Retaining backward compatibility with PM would seem to me to be an enormous task.  As far as Qt is concerned, I would be interested if anyone could comment on the independence of the Qt Library from the native PM Apis.  I was under the impression that it used PM Apis.  I welcome correction if this view is erroneous.

I went to http://trac.netlabs.org/qt4/wiki and viewed the README.OS2 file that describes a.o. how to compile the library in order to gain some understanding. And yes, the QT library is build on top of Presentation Manager.

Ouch!!.. I just found all this - http://kimludvigsen.dk/os2/gfd/dev/xmpl/index.php

Hi Martin,

There is some overlap with files on hobbes. But be aware of shortened file names used i.e. usbec10s.zip is usbecd10s.zip on hobbes. There is also an overlap with http://www.dreamlandbbs.com/gfd/devxmpl/index.html which includes recent source code too. Seems like using the same shortened file names.

Regards.

Hi Sigurd,

It turned out that UPDCD produces the bootdisk.scr only for a short duration of time, pointing from there to the \tmp directory, that is as well only there for a short time in \UPDCD\BURN\BOOTIMGS - just to build the BOOTDISK.PF - and then both will be automatically deleted by the program.

I rememberd the way I took to change and modify the config.sys - (please see my thread at the german forum) - by adding a 'pause' command in the \UPDCD\LIB\updif.rlb - so I looked for the part, right before the bootdiskfiles are copied from the tmp directory.

So the program stopped as I wanted and I then copied the files I wanted to add to the \tmp directory and then continued the UPDCD process. Later I did as before as well - copying the files to DISK_0 and packed them, to complete the procedure.

Are you sure that the program stopped where you wanted? When I look at bootdisk1.png it seems to me that you paused after packing \temp into bootdisk.pf and your add to the \tmp directory has been done in vain.

Regards, Wim.

Martin,

To do an international payment, my bank needs the following to be filled in:

"IBAN" or "Account Number" of the recipient.

"Bank Code" or "FedWire" or "FW" or "ABA" or "Routing Number" for the recipients bank.

"BIC" or "Name/Address/City/Country" of recipients bank.

I would use "Our Costs" meaning no costs involved for the recipient.
Is it all-right to transfer in euro's or should I use us dollar or what else?

Regards, Wim.

Hardware / Re: Webcam Support for OS/2 and eCS!!
« on: August 11, 2014, 12:00:44 pm »
  Still get '[00000280] Obtain thread error!' within about a minute of starting with my C250.

  I tried both the 640x480 and 320x240 versions and I get the same result. Also get the same window size with both (640x480). Looking at the files, they all appear to be the same size in both folders in the WebSee10.zip archive. Is that correct?

The default window size with both versions is actually 320x240. When you click the maximize button it toggles between 320x40 and 640x480. The stream format however is different. You will notice that when you take a snapshot.

I'd like to add support for webcam into my rexx library... :)

The source code example has been written in turbo assembler though.

//Jan-Erik

It is possible to run weblook.exe and to replace webview.exe with a rexx procedure that obtains the individual mjpeg frames and to convert these into ordinary jpeg files by adding huffman code tables to them. If you want to go that route then I can append an example that I use myself for testing purposes.
