Technion- Israel Institute of Technology Electrical Engineering software lab. Author : Michael Veksler 11678223 Tutor: Avner Lottem DDE support for Wine ==================== Wine emulator is able to run MS-Windows 3.1 applications under Linux (Linux is a UNIX clone) . Wine is also a toolkit allowing MS-Windows applications to compile under Linux. Wine is a world-wide Internet project with more than 20 developers. Wine is still under development so many vital MS-Windows features are still missing. DDE is Dynamic Data Exchange used for communication between MS-Windows applications. This project adds DDE capabilities into Wine. The new improved Wine will be able to send messages and share memory between two different Wine processes. This project uses System-V IPC mechanisms to implement DDE. Besides sharing memory handles and sending DDE messages, Wine processes are synchronize to emulates MS-Windows non-preemptive task switching. (MS-Windows switches tasks only on given instructions). This is done without hurting the performance or stability of a single Wine process. The project adds DDE to Wine emulator and to the toolkit. This allows old MS-Windows applications to be compiled for UNIX, and have DDE working among them.
