Joachim Henze 0e4077f3f2 [0.4.10][DOC] Correct README.WINE regarding winhttp.dll 
Because we reverted [WINHTTP] in releases/0.4.9 and releases/0.4.10 and releases/0.4.11
to the state before 9048599788 (==SVN r75944) which was WineStaging-2.9

Ftr: Back then the winhttp_winetest was not reverted as well, which makes a few of the tests hang. (which is one but not the only reason)

Current state of those tests:
0.4.14-release-93-g10d0e9b  RosBELin GCC8.4.0 does not hang 'most of the times' but sometimes it does, later during 0.4.15-dev even more tests were disabled here
0.4.14-release-93-g10d0e9b  RosBEWin2.1.6dbg  winhhtp.dll 301.568 Winestaging-4.18 kernel32_vista-dep    winhttp_apitest 21executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest notification 643executed, 26fail, 1skip  winhttp_winetest url 243executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest winhttp 4964executed, 14failures, 1skip
0.4.13-release-159-ge70a565 RosBEWin2.1.6dbg  winhhtp.dll 301.568 Winestaging-4.18 kernel32_vista-dep    winhttp_apitest 21executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest notification 409executed, 26fail, 1skip  winhttp_winetest url 223executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest winhttp (hangs more than 5minutes)
0.4.12-release-188-gd73c71e RosBEWin2.1.6dbg  winhttp.dll 303.616 Winestaging-3.9  kernel32_vista-dep    winhttp_apitest 21executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest notification 409executed, 26fail, 1skip  winhttp_winetest url 223executed, 1failure   winhhtp_winetest winhhtp 5037executed, 15failures, 0skip
0.4.11-release-197-gdbcd8aa RosBEWin2.1.6dbg  winhhtp.dll 297.984 Winestaging-2.9                        winhttp_apitest 21executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest notification (hangs more than 5minutes)  winhttp_winetest url 223executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest winhttp (hangs more than 5minutes)
0.4.10-release-214-g711e70c RosBEWin2.1.6dbg  winhhtp.dll 295.424 Winestaging-2.9
0.4.9-release-225-g9ff478e  RosBEWin2.1.6dbg  winhttp.dll 295.424 Winestaging-2.9                        winhttp_apitest 21executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest notification (hangs more than 5minutes)  winhttp_winetest url 223executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest winhttp (hangs more than 5minutes)
0.4.8-release-234-g862997f  RosBEWin2.1.6dbg  winhttp.dll 302.592 Wine-3.0         kernel32_vista-dep    winhttp_apitest 21executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest notification 409executed, 26fail, 1skip  winhttp_winetest url 223executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest winhttp 5028executed, 12failures
0.4.7-release-263-g0c09cd7  RosBEWin2.1.6dbg  winhttp.dll 301.056 WineStaging-2.16 kernel32_vista-dep    winhttp_apitest 21executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest notification (hangs more than 5minutes)  winhttp_winetest url 223executed, 1failure   winhttp_winetest winhttp 5015executed, 12failures

We toggled some of the hanging tests in:
0.4.14-dev-787-g 0685e02d9e workaround more tests in winhttp:winhttp hang
0.4.14-dev-717-g 68490c1613 Restore winhttp:notification test_persistent_connection execution
0.4.8-dev-861-g 89670a48ab workaround winhttp:notification test_persistent_connection hang
0.4.8-dev-237-g a22031dba6 workaround winhttp:notification test_persistent_connection hang

Since the testbots do no longer run with the GCC4.7.2 builds, it does not really make a lot of sense to port any of those workarounds back atm.

I do consider none of the above states really desireable, therefore I don't touch the mess today, just document it.
I dislike: the kernel32_vista-dep.
I dislike: the behavior in the synthetic tests.
I appreciate: In practice all of the above do behave rather sane in most practical (non-synthetic) tests.
Remember: The Flash-ONLINE-setups are broken also on XPSP3. We should not accept that as a valid testcase. That does not work even in 0.4.9RosBEWin2.1.6 / 0.4.13RosBEWin2.1.6 / 0.4.14RosBEWin2.1.6! Despite what the ticket CORE-13952 says. It lies!
Flash OFFLINE setup from rapps works. The app is discontinued.

I could imagine in the future:
-downgrade releases/0.4.8 and 0.4.7 also back to Winestaging 2.9 to kill the kernel32_vista-import. (Could be done with or without suppressing the hangs in the [too new] synthetic tests)
-observe whether releases/0.4.13 has any other issues in winhhtp-context, and if so we might want to step back to Winestaging-3.9 (the natural fit).

But not today.
The reverts were questionable from the standpoint of the synthetic tests and also
from the standpoint of the broken "Adobe Flash Online Updater". They might work by chance on the linux builds, but that does not transfer to the Windows builds. And most likely points to some (memory) corruption.
Reverts could only be justified by the kernel_vista removal.

Quick Links

What is ReactOS?

ReactOS™ is an Open Source effort to develop a quality operating system that is compatible with applications and drivers written for the Microsoft® Windows™ NT family of operating systems (NT4, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, Seven).

The ReactOS project, although currently focused on Windows Server 2003 compatibility, is always keeping an eye toward compatibility with Windows Vista and future Windows NT releases.

The code of ReactOS is licensed under GNU GPL 2.0.

Building

appveyor.badge travis.badge rosbewin.badge rosbeunix.badge coverity.badge

To build the system it is strongly advised to use the ReactOS Build Environment (RosBE). Up-to-date versions for Windows and for Unix/GNU-Linux are available from our download page at: https://reactos.org/wiki/Build_Environment.

Alternatively one can use Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC) version 2010+. Building with MSVC is covered here: https://www.reactos.org/wiki/Building_with_MSVC.

Binaries

To build ReactOS you must run the configure script in the directory you want to have your build files. Choose configure.cmd or configure.sh depending on your system. Then run ninja <modulename> to build a module you want or just ninja to build all modules.

Bootable images

To build a bootable CD image run ninja bootcd from the build directory. This will create a CD image with a filename bootcd.iso.

See "Building ReactOS" for more details.

Installing

By default, ReactOS currently can only be installed on a machine that has a FAT16 or FAT32 partition as the active (bootable) partition. The partition on which ReactOS is to be installed (which may or may not be the bootable partition) must also be formatted as FAT16 or FAT32. ReactOS Setup can format the partitions if needed.

Starting 0.4.10, ReactOS can be installed using the BtrFS file system. But consider this as an experimental feature and thus regressions not triggered on FAT setup may be observed.

To install ReactOS from the bootable CD distribution, extract the archive contents. Then burn the CD image, boot from it, and follow the instructions.

See "Installing ReactOS" Wiki page or INSTALL for more details.

Testing

If you discover a bug in ReactOS search on JIRA first - it might be reported already. If not report the bug providing logs and as many information as possible.

See "File Bugs" for a guide.

NOTE: The bug tracker is not for discussions. Please use #reactos Freenode IRC channel or our forum.

Contributing prwelcome.badge

We are always looking for developers! Check how to contribute if you are willing to participate.

You can also support ReactOS by donating! We rely on our backers to maintain our servers and accelerate development by hiring full-time devs.

More information

ReactOS is a Free and Open Source operating system based on the Windows architecture, providing support for existing applications and drivers, and an alternative to the current dominant consumer operating system.

It is not another wrapper built on Linux, like WINE. It does not attempt or plan to compete with WINE; in fact, the user-mode part of ReactOS is almost entirely WINE-based and our two teams have cooperated closely in the past.

ReactOS is also not "yet another OS". It does not attempt to be a third player like any other alternative OS out there. People are not meant to uninstall Linux and use ReactOS instead; ReactOS is a replacement for Windows users who want a Windows replacement that behaves just like Windows.

More information is available at: https://www.reactos.org.

Also see the media/doc subdirectory for some sparse notes.

Who is responsible

Active devs are listed as members of GitHub organization. See also the CREDITS file for others.

Code mirrors

The main development is done on GitHub. We have an alternative mirror in case GitHub is down.

There is also an obsolete SVN archive repository that is kept for historical purposes.
