Published experimental release of an open implementation of the Win32 API – Wine 11.20. Since the release of 11.19, 24 bug reports have been closed and 341 changes have been made.
The most important changes:
- For the ARM64EC (ARM64 Emulation Compatible) implemented support for the “WINEDEBUG=+relay” debug mode, which allows you to track the arguments and return values of called functions. 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.
- Checking of data in XML format has been improved.
- The implementation of CDROM support has been moved from ntdll to Mount Manager.
- Error reports related to the operation of applications have been closed: MS Office 2013, Unigine Heaven 2.0, Toad for SQL Server 5.7, Intuit QuickBooks 2008-2010, QuickBooks SS 2008 R1, SumatraPDF 3.1.2, Microsoft Core XML Services 6.0, Neko Project 21, FL Studio,
