[Release] Kels' Runtimes v8.8

I'm aware of that. According to the bulletin one update is for 2007 and the other for XP. Don't know why Ms did not use the newer file for XP do you?

No idea. Different versions of the same file are available for Office XP, 2003 and 2007.

I don't know either, but I have checked installation of that KB for MSO2007, (the version in this runtime pack), and it doesn't replace the usp10.dll in system32. It gets placed in the MSO directory in programfiles--which is probably why it doesn't come with a cat.

I haven't checked further any further than that.

Planned obsolecance...

MS stopped wanted people to use it so they stop sending it files that improve it.

And an attempt to prevent users of other non-MS document creation software from using the latest usp10.dll.

For anyone who wants to update their version of zlib1.dll in their runtime packs I have uploaded 1.2.7 here. It contains both x86 and x64 versions.
I grabbed them from software that can be downloaded here, as the main zlib site no longer seems interested in posting a compiled dll for Windows.
I have only done limited testing with this dll, but it seems to work fine for me.

Kelsenellenelvian · Post by **Kelsenellenelvian** » Sat Sep 22, 2012 3:56 pm

What I have so far for next version:

COMCTL32.OCX
MSCOMCTL.OCX
ZLIB1.DLL

I will ask ric to try to remember and find out what the last usp10.dll that came with a .cat and readd that.

Any further additions?

(Please be quick)

Actually, Kels, are you certain that the Vista usp10.dll (1.626.6002.22384) with a CAT offers features or improvements in text display on an XP system when compared to the last XP one (1.420.2600.5969)?

I searched briefly a few weeks ago and found that the last ones with CATs that work on XP, issued on the same date, (the XP and Vista versions,) were issued for security reasons. (So superiority of the Vista dll would most likely predate that last release with a CAT.)

If anyone can a post a link giving evidence or even a strong hint at the superiority of the Vista usp10.dll over the XP one for CTF unicode text display on an XP system please post here soon for everyone. A sample doc would be even better. I couldn't find anything when I searched a few weeks ago.

Edit:
It seems the practice now, is to copy any newer usp10.dll into the application directory of any app that can take advantage of the new one, rather than replacing the system one.

tomasz86 · Post by **tomasz86** » Sat Sep 22, 2012 5:43 pm

Does it really matter whether there's a CAT file or not? I myself would prefer to have the newest version of usp10.dll installed instead of the older one and its CAT file...

tomasz86 · Post by **tomasz86** » Sat Sep 22, 2012 5:47 pm

And yes, the one from Vista (Office 2007) is superior. It supports these additional APIs which are not present in the one from XP:

Code: Select all

ScriptGetFontAlternateGlyphs
ScriptGetFontFeatureTags
ScriptGetFontLanguageTags
ScriptGetFontScriptTags
ScriptItemizeOpenType
ScriptPlaceOpenType
ScriptPositionSingleGlyph
ScriptShapeOpenType
ScriptSubstituteSingleGlyph

DLL from Vista (v1.0626.6002.22384) has CAT & only 25 days older than 2007's one...

tomasz86 · Post by **tomasz86** » Sun Sep 23, 2012 2:53 am

Still there's no other reason not to use it (the one from Office 2007) except for the lack of a CAT file.

Thank you !

I would like to know, if I'm not asking that much, which part from Entries_Runtimes.ini or Runtimes.ini refers to USP10.DLL and usp10.cat, because I can't find any mention for these two files.

ricktendo64 · Post by **ricktendo64** » Tue Sep 25, 2012 10:55 pm

There is no need to mention them because usp10.dll is already in your XP disk and the cat is added automatically

Please be a little more specific about usp10.dll. Without integrating this addon, the XP disk contains an older version of the file, or the exact same version? It is also automatically replaced by the newer version from this addon?

Thank you.

Yes, when you integrate this.

Pasha_ZZZ wrote:Yes, when you integrate this.

That's why I was asking for any references in Entries_Runtimes.ini or Runtimes.ini. I understood that *.cat files are added automatically, but does this happen also with *.dll files?

To simplify my questions, let's say I want to make an addon with just usp10.dll and its *.cat file. I only have to place the *.cat into SVCPACK folder and include the dll next to SVCPACK folder (out of it), but what should I write in Entries_Runtimes.ini ?

EDIT: I'm sorry for my persistence, but I'm a noob in addon creation

Kelsenellenelvian · Post by **Kelsenellenelvian** » Wed Sep 26, 2012 5:40 am

The usp10.dll (old version) already exists in a WinXP dsk.

When you ad my runtimes it simply overwrites the old with the new.

ricktendo64 · Post by **ricktendo64** » Wed Sep 26, 2012 1:23 pm

If you are doing a simple addon updating existing files on your CD you only need to use Entries*.ini to give your addon a name/description/version/etc (the stuff in the [general] section)

XPSP3_QFE_UpdatePack_20130709.7z has a newer comdlg.ocx (6.1.98.36) than what's in this addon (6.1.98.16). I only noticed because I got a message during the XP install asking if the newer version of the file should be replaced.

I wanted to update the runtimes.cab file, so I went looking for a tool to create a cab file. As a test, I used the unpacked runtimes directory as input. I was able to create a cab file, but it is larger in size than the original cab. What is the recommended tool for creating smaller cab files?

are you using lzx:21 compression?

cabarc
makecab
or how about OnepPiece DXtool ?

No idea. I used cabdir.exe (old flight simulator dev kit tool) whose default was compress. I also tried IExpress and the
compression was no better. I don't know what Kel used when cabbing his runtimes. I'll fiddle with your suggestions.

I forgot that cabarc was include in Win7. Also in the support.cab
for XPSP3.

cabarc -m LZX:21 N test.cab Runtimes\*.* works for me.

Code: Select all

Runtimes.cab                                    5645161
test    .cab                                -->    5624119

Also I have a question regarding USP10.dll. An interesting official for xp update is out - KB2850869 - that updates USP10.dll.

So the new official version for xp is 1.420.2600.6421, and the one from your pack I think it's 1.0626.6002.22402. I installed it on a live system, that had your addon pack pre-installed, and while your (vista) version of USP10.dll is still in C:\Windows\system32, the one from the update went to C:\Windows\system32\dllcache.

So, the one from your pack is from 2010's KB2028505 (LDR), the latest official one for vista is from 2010's KB981322 (GDR), and the latest one for xp only is from 2013's KB2850869.

Do you think any changes for your pack regarding USP10.dll are required?

Kelsenellenelvian · Post by **Kelsenellenelvian** » Thu Aug 15, 2013 4:08 am

I was not aware of that update.

As long as it has a .cat in it then by all means it should be replaced in my pack.

Kelsenellenelvian · Post by **Kelsenellenelvian** » Thu Aug 15, 2013 4:11 am

RicaNeaga · Post by **RicaNeaga** » Thu Aug 15, 2013 6:38 am

Thanks for the update.

I was thinking the same thing, maybe a very updated xp version is preferable to an older vista version. But I wasn't sure, since maybe the vista version has other advantages...

Thanks again and hope you'll get over your problems soon.

keloo05 · Post by **keloo05** » Wed Aug 21, 2013 10:38 pm

Aren't ssleay32.dll & libssl32.dll suposed to be the same file, but with different names? You updated ssleay32.dll (v. 1.0.1.5), but you forgot to update libssl32.dl (v. 1.0.1.3 in the addon).

Wouldn't be the best option to remove libssl32.dl and also remove it from Runtimes.inf ?
