DBus Daemon for Windows CE/Windows Mobile 6.5
|
||||||
|
=============================================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Bugs in upstream for any window version:
|
||||||
|
* MoveFileExA < 0 result check bug
|
||||||
|
* double dbus_free somewhere I forgot where (check in -ugly)
|
||||||
|
* alignment issue
|
||||||
|
* CreateProcess process information handle leak
|
||||||
|
* _dbus_getsid NULL vs INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE
|
||||||
|
* win_account_to_sid
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Customisation
|
||||||
|
=============
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1) At installation, the following registry value should be set to the
|
||||||
|
installation directory of the dbus installation (the directory
|
||||||
|
containing the bin, etc, share folders):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
HKLM\Software\freedesktop\DBus\Install Directory
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2) Instead of environment variable DBUS_VERBOSE, use
|
||||||
|
HKLM\Software\freedesktop\DBus\Verbose
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2) The keyring directory is MYDOCUMENTS\dbus-keyrings, not
|
||||||
|
HOMEPATH\.dbus-keyrings.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Compilation
|
||||||
|
===========
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
./configure --host=arm-mingw32ce CPPFLAGS=-I/path/to/expat/include LDFLAGS=-L/path/to/expat/lib
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A recent version of libtool is required, with this change:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2010-02-28 Pierre Ossman <ossman@ossman.lkpg.cendio.se> (tiny change)
|
||||||
|
Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Fix deplibs check fallback for 64-bit Windows and Windows CE.
|
||||||
|
* libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CHECK_MAGIC_METHOD): Accept file formats
|
||||||
|
'pe-arm-wince' and 'pe-x86-64'. Add note about consistency with ...
|
||||||
|
* libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_win32_libid): ... the respective
|
||||||
|
pattern here; sync pattern from the former.
|
||||||
|
* tests/deplibs-mingw.at (deplibs without file command): New
|
||||||
|
file, new test.
|
||||||
|
* Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Update.
|
||||||
|
* NEWS: Update.

MB vs WCHAR
|
||||||
|
===========
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Windows CE only supports the Unicode interface, while DBus Daemon uses
|
||||||
|
the Multi-Byte interface on Windows by default. The glue code does
|
||||||
|
not support multibyte in all cases. In particular, the _mbsrchr
|
||||||
|
function is not correctly implemented. It could be correctly
|
||||||
|
implemented, or dbus daemon could use the wchar interface more
|
||||||
|
consistently on all Windows targets. For now, the Windows CE port
|
||||||
|
will only work for filesystems without some weird characters in file
|
||||||
|
names. Is this a serious limitation?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Known Issues
|
||||||
|
============
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Autolaunch is broken so far.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Environment variables are faked. Some are punted to the registry, but
|
||||||
|
in any case they can not be used reliably for IPC.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The test suite is not ported yet.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
dbus-pipe.c:
|
||||||
|
* Uses libc file descriptors. Needed for --print-address and
|
||||||
|
--print-pid which probably don't work yet.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
dbus-sysdeps-win.c:
|
||||||
|
* Backtraces have been disabled.
|
||||||
|
* _dbus_fd_set_close_on_exec Not supported, maybe we should disable
|
||||||
|
the warning.
|
||||||
|
* SearchPathA: Uses HKLM\\Software\\freedesktop\\DBus\\Install Directory
|
||||||
|
to locate binaries.
