Wine - Open Source Windows API Implementation

Wineis an Open Source implementation of the Windows API on top of X, OpenGL, and Unix.

Wine - Open Source Windows API Implementation

Think of Wine as a compatibility layer for running Windows programs. Wine does not require Microsoft Windows, as it is a completely free alternative implementation of the Windows API consisting of 100% non-Microsoft code, however Wine can optionally use native Windows DLLs if they are available. Wine provides both a development toolkit for porting Windows source code to Unix as well as a program loader, allowing many unmodified Windows programs to run on x86-based Unixes, including Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Solaris.

The Wine development release 1.1.4 is now available.

What's new in this release:

• Substantial chunks of WinHTTP are implemented.
• More JavaScript support.
• Beginnings of shell AppBar implementation.
• Several fixes for Google Chrome support.
• Chinese translations.
• Various bug fixes.

Universal Sound and Music Browse Plugin

Playing various sound formats on the browser is a difficult experience for many. Even just midi and mp3 within browsers is difficult sometimes. Most plugins require big supporting software and frequent updates.

The adobe swf and flv plugin seems to integrate well with all browsers and is small and quick to update-setup. If small and medium mp3 and midi can be converted to swf or flv and played hidden in the webpage it could make integrating of sound in pages easy. So we need a midi to swf converter or a new flash sound only format like FLS, Flash Sound ?

Idea of Anantha Narayan - SAN Gear - 16:30 14-Feb-08

Ultimate Software Protection

This is an idea of a costly way of protecting your software IP, We now have Flash USB thumb drives going upto 100Mb, You now need to make an ASIC for a thumb drive which manages flash storage of 100Mb and also does some simple logic and maths, all this inside the thumb drive.

Now put the software you make within the custom thumb drive and make it into an partial java based application server. So even copying or reading RAM will not expose the program binaries on PC. Now you have a custom thumb drive with embedded application software to sell just like objects, and cannot be copied. This thumbware you sell will be bought by the user and all he needs to do is plug it in the USB port and a icon will come with a balloon in the notification area and start using the new thumbware you bought. Remove thumbware the application will close, take it wherever you want. The thumbware will not be copied as ASIC is custom and some computation is within the thumb and major computation is in the PC.

Then you can make it OS independent, as it will be a embedded java application, the xml database can be within the thumb itself and an encrypted copy on HDD.
