similar to: Winelib for creating makefile to run on Windows?

Hi, Can anyone tell me how to install winelib? I cannot find it anywhere on the winelib website. Or does it come with Wine? Thanks Col

I need to write a win32 program. However, my workstation is a Linux box. I was goingto create a cross compiler and compile my code and run it on wine... However, I heard about winelib, and allegedly I can just use winelib and compile on my linux box using good ol' gcc and it will just work. Is this true? If so how would I set that up? Where can I find the docs?

I would want to make it run natively on Linux. You can't. Winelib still requires Wine to run it. It's a library not an executable. If you want to write native Linux application that can run by itself

Sorry to bug you all, but I want to know if I am trying to do something impossible. I am trying to use winelib to compile an exe that links to a dll, without compiling the dll under winelib (i.e. the equivalent of simply linking in the .lib). I have a win32 DLL project (hw5) that generates a hw5.lib, hw5.dll and hw5.h under M$. I have a win32 gui exe project (hw6) that includes hw5.h, links to

Hi, My application holds few windows exe's developed using .lib libraries. This application which got developed using VC++ is working fine when executed using wine.I want to compile the same source using winelibraries in linux. How can I include c++ header files? I can see only windows and msvcrt header files under wine? Any help would be appreciated on this C++ header stuff for wine.

Does the latest winelib compile and work on the Sparc? Are there any special patches/instructions for this? Are there any mirrors that have the precompiled binary winelib for Sparc? Thanks in advance.

Hi, I am looking into good way to port Windows applications to Linux and hopefully any other Unixes. I'd like to know about questions below. If anyone answer them, I'd appreciate it. 1. Can I use Winelib to port commercial application whose sources will be not disclosed ? 2. Is it possible to link Winelib statically with an application and distribute it ? 3. In case that I

Hi, I have assumed that if I want to use winelib for porting, I must compile MFC under Linux regardless if my app uses MFC or not. Is this true? It seems like if I have to compile MFC and yet I don't use it, I should choose another alternative to port my app since the process of getting MFC to compile is extensive. Also, my app involves video compression for internet use. Should I expect a

Hello everyone. I don't know if this was ever asked, if so sorry. 1.Let's assume we have a source code from some old Windos program for example: a game that useed D3D6, and was released around year 2000, we know that this program works perfectly under wine - am I correct in assuming, that - with the use of winelib - we could compile the source, and create a Linux/BSD/Solaris/whatever

hello everybody, i have a slight problem, i want to write a wrapper around win32 binary dll and use it with my *nix applications, and i have been through the winelib documentation, and spent pretty much time trying to make a working wrapper, but i can't seem to get it working (with and without prototyping the calls i seem to get many "undefined reference to '....'"'s)...

It' s possible to statically link WineLib to my program?

Hi. I'm currently starting the process of porting a windows based gaming engine (uses the windows API),to linux. I have winelib (winemaker?) and have read through it's documentation but am still unsure what it's really for. Is it possable to use winelib to assist me in porting this engine from windows to linux,is that what it's for? If so,do I have to provide all nessesary

hi, how can I use _beginthread with winelib (I get "undefined reference") ? thanks, -- Felix Natter

I have a little program coded for windows, and I want to compile it using winegcc. Unfortunately, some functions are not implemented in winelib, and I have to tweak some files. So, How do I submit those changes ? I found nothing on the WineHQ site. SO, if someone knows where to redirect me, I can do it alone! ___________________________________________________________________________

Has anyone have any succes in building a Windows application, on Linux, using winelib??? I followed the steps in the online documentation and didn't work. I used winemaker to create some of the configuration files. I then ran ./configure to generate the Makefile and then I ran make. It compiled the sources fine and it also created the binary. But the binary file is nothing but a link to

Hi, I was searching on information whether it is possible to use winelib in order to develop (compile/link) and test DirectX (that make especially use of Direct3D) applications on linux? Can somebody provide some information in how far this is possible? I couldn't find anything useful by Google.

Hi, The company I work for, has asked me to use winelib to port some code, however I have a problem compiling the MFC. I run winemaker 0.5.7 with options: 'winemaker --lower-uppercase -nomfc --dll ./ > \ winemaker_output.txt' No errors in file or stderror; further winemaker accesses the correct directories. But when I run ./configure as: './configure --with-wine=/usr/bin \

Hi All, I have implemented a JNI library on window that call the C++ dll APIs. Now I want my JAVA program is run on the UNIX system. I have used WineLib to wrapper Window Dlls to the Share Object Lib (so lib) (Using Winedump and Winegcc to build). The functions in the so lib can work normally with my C main test function. BUT when I call it from Java. The function can linked BUT it is crashed at

Any chance of some help please? I have just started trying to get WineLib working on my machine, after playing with wine for several months. I am starting slowly. The BASIC hello, world. (no graphics, no Microsoft etc) I run winemaker and configure (with -L/usr/local/lib) make generates ./hw2.spec:7: could not open .so file for advapi32.dll I am aware of the discussion in January (compiling
