Hi, We developed an application under windows with borland cbuilder 5 and now we want run under linux with wine (not using an windows partition). We have tried with the latest version ( compiled and installed from CVS ) under "debian testing" linux distribution. This is mainly an opengl application and almost everything works fine but the menu bar dont works, clicking to the menu bar but nothing happened. Have you any idea? Thanks Attila

This is mainly an openglI presume that means your system is a Debian Testing (what release is this, Woody or Sid?), and you downloaded CVS, and built it. Have you tried the last release, instead? CVS may or may not be unstable for even development purposes, depending on what happens every time a patch is submitted.> application and almost everything works fine but the menu bar dont > works, clicking to the menu bar but nothing happened. Have you any idea?How are you launching the program and wine? Are you using mime-types or KDE, or are you using an xterm window? Also, what warns, fixmes and/or errors do you get, (or try using it in and xterm and tell us what you get), and what you get with debug channels. Also, you may want to upgrade things like libwine, libcx, wine-utils, or whatever to the latest version in either testing or unstable. Finally, you *may* want to try apt-get source to get the 20040716 from unstable (it's one month old though, last rel. at time of writing was 20040813 or something -- put an "dpkg-src ... unstable ..." entry in your sources.list and then use apt-get update, then build, using instructions you can find in (for example) FAQs on google).> > Thanks > Attila > > _______________________________________________ > wine-users mailing list > wine-users@winehq.org > http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-usersHope I helped. --Michael Chang

Have you any idea?It probably doesn't really help you, but I'll just mention that I have a fairly trivial (no OpenGL) CBuilder 5 application with a menu bar that does work for me under current CVS and RH9. It might be worth creating a trivial application to see if that works.

We have tested an other application that uses opengl but with an MDI child window (this works, opengl area in MDI window, main menu in the main window). The original application doesn't have an MDI window. So I think the problem: the main menu is it in the opengl area. Is it possible? We've tested a third application : it has the same problem ( main menu cant be clicked, and this not an MDI application ) We have tried wine in debian-stable, debian-testing, CVS. Thanks Attila
