Hello Sylvain!
The goal is to convert most of the *.inf files to Unicode. The
conversion is optional, not mandatory. In cases where localized strings
should be use a conversion is needed. For example syssetup.inf could
keep the names of all start menu folders and items for all supported
languages in localized "Strings" sections (eg "[Strings.0407]"). Once
you install ReactOS the start menu will be localized correctly, no more
"Accessories" folder for french, spanish, greek or turkish users.
The Unicode-enabled inf parser has at least one or two major bugs that
cause a heap space corruption on linux machines. It should be either an
off-by-one bug or a missing "* sizeof(WCHAR)" somewhere because the
ASCII/ANSI version worked quite well for a few years.
Regards
Eric

Are the usetup changes implying a unicode conversion of reactos.dff ?
Doing tests and looking at testbot output shows that usetup is having problem
parsing the file.
(base/setup/usetup/interface/usetup.c:2758) SetupFindFirstLine() failed (1st
stage)It also fails finding gecko cab file in 2nd stage.
Kind regards,
Sylvain Petreolle

Objet : [ros-dev] I need help fixing rbuild and testing builds on *nix machines!
Hi!
In order to fix bug #2482 I needed to make inflib Unicode-aware. My
local ReactOS setup is curently able to build Boot-CD and Live-CD using Unicode
hive*.inf files.
Rbuild is the only tool that still uses the original
inflib. Could someone who knows more about C++ and STL than I do have a look at
rbuild and make it work with the new inflib?
I can provide a patch that
includes newinflib (Unicode-aware inflib) and my changes to usetup and
mkhive.
I also need someone who can test the whole patch on a *nix
machine. Any
volunters?
Regards,
Eric
