   Oct 2012 21:13:47 -0400   
   ++ 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 an eComStation.   
   The Odin runtime is a requirement for the newest developed versions of JAVA   
   and Flash 10 for OS/2 and eCS.     
      
   For more information and downloads, see:     
      
   http://svn.netlabs.org/odin32   
      
   Download: ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/odin/0.8.6/odin-0.8.6.zip   
   Debug: ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/odin/0.8.6/odin-0.8.6-debug.zip   
      
   Requires the following:   
   - kLIBC runtime v0.6.5 (ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/gcc/libc-0_6_5-csd5.wpi   
   - GCC runtime v4.4.6 (ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/gcc/gcc4core-1_2_1.wpi   
      
      
   0.8.6 (2012-10-23)   
   ------------------   
    - kernel32: Fix crash when using the new SEH scheme (0.8.5 regression).   
    - kernel32: Disable Win32 TIB switch completely by default. This fixes spins   
    in an exception handler loop in some applications (e.g. LibreOffice trying   
    to load JVM.DLL).   
    - kernel32: Add support for custom PE/PEC/W16ODIN paths to ODIN.INI (fixes   
    broken PE/PEC functionality in RPM packages).   
    - kernel32: Add GetCPInfoEx and ConvertThreadToFiber (needed for GTK).   
    - kernel32: Add InitializeSListHead (needed for MSVCR100.DLL).   
    - kernel32: Fix inverted return values in GetFileInformationByHandle and   
    some other APIs (this could confuse Flash 10.1+).   
    - kernel32: Implement GetFileInformationByHandle for directories.   
    - kernel32: Add support for Windows XP SP3 version and make it the default.   
    - user32: Partly implement MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx (for Flash 11.4).   
    - shell32: Export SHGetSpecialFolderPathW (needed by Flash 11.4).   
    - crypt32: Disable debug fields of RTL_CRITICAL_SECTION_DEBUG (fixes   
    occasional crashes in CRYPT32.DLL e.g. during playback of some Flash).   
    - odininst: Register DLLs that require registration (fixes playback of some   
    Flash content for Flash versions starting from 10.1).   
    - pe: Don't add .exe if an extension is already present in the program name   
    (this fixes programs like InstallShiled that use non-standard extensions).   
    - pe: Fix memory allocation error for some Win32 EXEs (this error could be   
    displayed if the size of the EXE was too small).
