Wine 11.15 and Wine-Staging 11.15 Released

Published experimental release of an open implementation of the Win32 API – Wine 11.15. Since the release of 11.14, 41 bug reports have been closed and 207 changes have been made.

The most important changes:

  • Added support for local authentication using NTLM. In msv1_0, the ntlm_SpQueryCredentialsAttributes function is implemented.
  • The BCrypt library has added support for the BCRYPT_TLS1_{1,2}_KDF_ALGORITHM and BCRYPT_HKDF_ALGORITHM algorithms, and also implemented the ability to set the initialization vector (BCRYPT_INITIALIZATION_VECTOR).
  • Added support builds for the ARM64EC (ARM64 Emulation Compatible) architecture using the Mingw toolkit. The ARM64EC architecture is used to simplify the porting of applications originally written for x86_64 systems to ARM64 systems, and allows individual modules with x86_64 code to be executed in the ARM64 environment using an emulator.
  • The WindowsCodecs set of libraries has added support for converting pixel formats from 32bppBGRA and 32bppPBGRA to 64bppPRGBA, from 64bppPRGBA to 128bppRGBAFloat and from 64bppPRGBA to 128bppPRGBAFloat.
  • Closed error reports related to various applications and games.

Simultaneously formed release of the project Wine Staging 11.15, which provides extended builds of Wine, including incomplete or risky patches that are not yet suitable for adoption into the main Wine branch. Compared to Wine, Wine St
