[Wine] Functionality with SetWindowsHookEx WH_JOURNALPLAYBACK
Hello, I am trying to run our own Delphi Application with wine 1.2 on Kubuntu. Applications runs without any problems but Functionality of stuffing keys with setWindowsHookEx(WH_JOURNALPLAYBACK, @Playback, hInstance, 0); is not working at all. Can somebody suggest any work around for this ? If any code changes are needed we can do the same since we have sources of application with us. Since application is Data Entry Centric this functionality is Vital to Client and can stop them from switching to Linux to use this application. Rest of the matters like printing, fonts etc. etc. have been settled very nicely with wine. Thanks and Warm regards Raja

Also it may be possible to port the app to linux using http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_For_Delphi_Users Paul R.

Thanks Paul Romanyszyn, Paul Romanyszyn wrote:> > Try with a newer wine as 1.2 is very old. >We tried with Latest Wine From WineHQ repositories but application had lot problems in startup it self as well we were not able to run it properly. so we reverted back to Kubuntu repository wine which we found to be working in all respect except this functionality.

We know that it will be beneficial in long run but at this moment time is constraint and project dead line is very short. Well your suggestion is well taken and we will take up ride with Lazarus as soon as this project is over and port the application to it so that it will run natively on Linux. Anyways If there is any other suggestion its welcome. Thanks and warm regards Raja
