Re: ptopengui-0.7 bundle for wine

Hi Bruno,
can You give me a link to initially start ptopengui as .exe ?
I have not found any hint for SuSE, which runns for me, to enable exe's
calling directly.

PS: I was reading in the wine-docus about compiling windows-source linked
directly against winelib on linux.

Basically (and I'm not a Wine expert at all), the Linux kernel needs
to know that windows executable files can be run using Wine.

On my redhat systems this is done by an init script that 'registers'
it:

    /etc/init.d/wine start

All it does is this:

    /sbin/modprobe binfmt_misc &>/dev/null
    echo ':windows:M::MZ::/usr/bin/wine:' >/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register || :
    echo ':windowsPE:M::PE::/usr/bin/wine:' >/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register || :

On a Debian system, you have to install an extra 'libwine-print'
package to get this stuff working.

So, I would look to see if there is a wine init-script you can run,
or any extra wine packages that you are missing.

Also, make sure that the .exe file is actually executable:

   chmod 755 PTOpenGui.exe

Alternatively, I believe, you may start the WIN-exe from a shell with:

wine prog.exe

assuming your prog.exe is in the current dir.

This doesn't work with PTOpenGUI, since it depends on two of the
PTools .exe files and it tries to run them directly (without the
wine prefix).

I tried writing wrapper scripts to fake them, but the main program
thought they finished as soon as they were run, so it never collected
the output.

Hi Bruno,
many thanks for Your hint. It worked very well. I will try out ptopengui
today.
I have problems to send to You, hopfully this mail reaches You.

Re: ptopengui-0.7 bundle for wine

Hi,

Are there features that will work better if I change style of calling 
PTOptimizer or PTStitcher? Now GUI checks if process is not anymore 
running and then supposes that needed things are done.

Has anyone compared Qt and wxWindows. I've started to read tutorial for 
wxWindows and it seems to be usable at least I can compile and debug 
projects made with wxWindows. In MS Windows enviroment Qt can be 
compiled with specific versions of MSVC or BCC and there are no free 
compilers & debugers that can be used. Bcc 5.5 can be downloaded free 
but there is no debugger. Qt evaluation version seems to demand this bcc 
5.5 compiler to be installed (I didn't install compiler so setup didn't 
work and I haven't tested it).

I think that Qt contains much more features than wxWindows has. Also I 
think that both of them have enough features to make working GUI for 
panorama tools. Do you know what weak points wxWindows has in 
Linux/Unix? Other than there is no nice and free IDE (designer).

PTOpenGui

Hi Juha
I would like to help with an realtime preview to PTOpenGui. As I saw there
is many switching necessary to evaluate changed options (yaw pitch ..) .
For linux I could load only 8bit images like jpg. Do You support 16bit?
The control points work very well, very usefull preview. Just I could not
reload an project - is this wine specific?.

The latest Windows version uses ImageMagick for opening images, so
you should be able to open 16bit per channel tiff/png files with
that.

I don't know, I'd recommend always using a freshly started
application whenever possible anyway, or do you mean that you can't
open any saved project?

This dont work for me. Must I create an link to display(/convert).exe?

The later. After a new start I could not load the old project saved as
xxx.pto .

No, I think that it's trying to use the ImageMagick library.  I
haven't played with this, but you probably need some kind of
magick.dll and libtiff.dll files in your wine "windows" path.

The tarball on my server dates from before this functionality was
added, so you should also be using the latest ptopengui.exe from the
ptopengui site.

That works for me, is the .pto file in the same directory as the
image files?
