Hello list! In my statement about the direction of development I decided in my post https://www.mail-archive.com/tbbeta@thebat.dutaint.com/msg115456.html to leave this list. This did not happen - I was still watching what happens to The Bat! until now. Now I'm back!
I will test both NAU versions (32bit and 64bit) against the newest wine. This will run The Bat! on top of wine on top of a Linux distribution. Here is my official test result and report from today: New MSI files from version v10.1.0.3 means also new tests against latest wine: Both are running on Linux (Debian64) on brand new wine v7.16 from August, 28th, 2022, with some problems: -Calendar mostly usable: it have some severe graphical glitches -Address book mostly usable: it have some severe graphical glitches -wine's bug #51178 is still present. (Please see: "The Bat! v9.3.4.12: Missing content in TTreeViews on Windows versions higher than 8", URL: <https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51178>) More infos about "TheBat!@wine": see Wines application database about "The Bat!": <https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=40987> Until now there are also three different installation methods described how to install "The Bat!" on Linux/Wine (this descriptions are based on The Bat! versions before v10). If you find something is not working related to wine please send a bug report to wine: <https://bugs.winehq.org> IMPORTANT: Please do not send it to this list. Some closing notes: 1.) Plugins which are created for use under 32bit didn't work with 64bit version of "The Bat!" (not a wine problem). 2.) A connection to Exchange servers isn't tested yet but may work. 3.) You may or may not find some nice bugs introduced in "The Bat!" from the windows world also in "The Bat!" on wine. So please watch also Ritlabs bug tracker very often and very closely. :) btw: @Ritlabs support: your sending mail address must be registered here in the list. If you post a message from an unauthorized e-mail address your mail will be returned and you get a mail with more explanation how to send mails to this list. Then your announcements of new versions will get here! =^..^= -- Best regards, Joerg Schiermeier Bielefeld, Germany -------------------------------------------------------------- productive: The Bat! pro v9.5.1.0 (32bit) - wine(at)Devuan test environment (32bit + 64bit): The Bat! pro - latest beta wine: v7.16 - Devuan (daedalus ceres): v5 emulated windows version (build number): v8.0 64bit (17763) ________________________________________________________ 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
