similar to: Winelibs question.....

Hello, I'm currently trying to use Winelib to port a fairly big windows application to Linux. The application consists of quite a lot of DLLs, some of which don't depend on the Win32 API (they can be compiled with gcc). I think I read all available documentation, but I still have a few questions: - is it possible to link a linux binary with "linux" shared libs and

Following upgrading from etch to lenny (Debian Linux i386 gnome) the two Windods applications that I used either do not start or lack functionality. Installed wine wine_bin wine_utils libwine_alsa _cms _gl _gphoto _ldap vers 1.0-rc1-1_print _sane. I have purged out completely all these file and reinstalled. Same errors below: The application that does not start: francesco at deb32:~$

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

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

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

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?

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.

I'm trying to run a program called FarrierPro. It needs SQLExpress which does not want to install in WINE. Has anyone had any luck with this or could someone point me to a workaround? Thanks for the help.

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?

Hello, I'm an embedded software developer. Most of our development is done with a cross-compiler, and is built using nmake makefiles. We also have a windows console cli application that talks to the target via USB. It was orignally written using the VS 6.0 IDE. Later, when we wanted to integrate building it into our automated build environment, we wrote makefiles (we did not use VS's

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! ___________________________________________________________________________
