   ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service   http://www.os2voice.org ++    
      
   From: madodelDESPAM@DESPAMptdprolog.net   
      
   There is a new version of ODIN on the Netlabs FTP server.     
      
   ODIN is the Open Source project to provide a win32 API for OS/2 and   
   eComStation.  Originally to allow OS/2 users to run  Windows 32 bit   
   applications.  Now used to port windows applications to OS/2 and eComStation.   
   The Odin runtime is a requirement for the newest developed versions of JAVA   
   and Flash 10 for OS/2 and eCS.

   Changelog   
   0.6.21577 (2001-02-21)   
   ----------------------     
      
   Dmitry A. Kuminov:   
        - iphlpapi: Fixed a crash when building the adapter/interface/address   
   tables   
          due to a bogus ioctl(SIOSTATRT) implementation in OS/2.   
        - kernel32: Implemented generating the high/low index values (using a   
   CRC32   
          and a hash function on the fuill file name) and filling up the volume   
          serial number in a structure returned by GetFileInformationByHandle().   
        - kernel32: Implemented GetVolumePathName() API.   
        - kernel32: Disabled logging exceptions in release builds through RAS   
   since   
          this involves .sym file reading and significantly slows down   
   applications   
          that use exception handlers like traps for implementing application   
   logic.   
        - kernel32: Fixed a bunch of OSLibDos* functions dealing with file names   
          that passed ANSI strings to the OS/2 APIs w/o first converting it to the   
          OEM codepage which caused "file not found" errors in various Win32 APIs   
          like GetFileAttributesEx() on file names Cyrillic, umlauts, etc.   
        - winmm: Accept handles returned by mixerOpen() as IDs in m   
   xerGetDevCaps()   
          (according to MSDN) which fixes sound in applications using these IDs.   
        - dsound: Enumerate the default sound device twice in Direc   
   SoundEnumerate()   
          (according to MSDN) to make applications relying on this work.
