OleCreateStaticFromData & OleCreateStaticFromData

Post by milano »

Hi,

There is an application we run on linux wine 1.5 that uses Crystal Reports XI R2 engine for displaying reports. Everything wokrs good, except reports not showing images (jpg) used in memos.

I've run CR XI R2 from terminal and I get this when trying to add images to blank report:

fixme:ole:OleCreateStaticFromData 0x33f23c,{00000000-0000-0000-c000-000000000046},00000001,(nil),0x1e9e14,0x1f6e88,0x1e9dcc: semi-stub
fixme:ole:OleCreateFromDataEx (0x33f23c, {00000000-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}, 00000000, 00000001, 0, (nil), (nil), (nil), (nil), 0x1e9e14, 0x1f6e88, 0x1e9dcc): stub

After this, application shows a message "Memory full" and then displays the page without the image.

This problem has occured on previous versions of wine as well.

Searching HQ i found this patch http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-pa ... 14463.html claiming that these functions are not implemented fully.

Is this true ? Is there anything that I can do to help implementing these functions soon (develop, finance) ?

You should file a bug and hope, that a wine developer will pick it up, that's the standard way to get into contact with the wine devs. Is there a free demo/trial?

This Ole* stuff is really complicated, the easy parts have been implemented years ago, putting a minor bounty on that bug probably wouldn't help at all.

If you are really willing to spend money, you could contact Codeweavers, they'd evaluate the app and make you an offer. The downside would be, that they'd charge you professional hourly rates, so it wouldn't be cheap.
