[Bug 44848] New: Customize CFBundleName in wine_info.plist on Mac?
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44848 Bug ID: 44848 Summary: Customize CFBundleName in wine_info.plist on Mac? Product: Wine Version: 3.3 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: loader Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: pembertona(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 60904 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=60904 Wine menu name on Mac OS X This is more a question/enhancement than bug, but is it possible to allow the end-user to modify the name of, for example, CFBundleName property in ./loader/wine_info.plist? When running wine from a .app on the Mac, this would allow customizing the name as it appears in the menu bar. Otherwise all apps appear as simply "Wine" in the menu. (See screenshot). Is this already possible? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

CrossOver has a gross hack that achieves this, but it's definitely not suitable for inclusion in Wine. The issue is that a) the wine_info.plist is compiled into the wineloader and is thus statically determined at build time; and b) the Mac system frameworks don't allow for any dynamism at run time. The bundle name is determined from the executable file or its containing app bundle, not, say, environment variables or user settings. If you or some wrapper-building app are creating app bundles, you can try to disable inclusion of wine_info.plist into the wineloader and set the app bundle's Info.plist file however you like. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44848 --- Comment #2 from Andy P <pembertona(a)gmail.com> --- Thanks for the response, Ken! Regarding disabling inclusion of wine_info.plist, is that something that would have to happen @ configure/make time? ie: require a custom build/package of the wine distro? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Thanks for the response, Ken!
You're welcome.
Regarding disabling inclusion of wine_info.plist, is that something that would have to happen @ configure/make time? ie: require a custom build/package of the wine distro?
Yes, you'd have to hack on the configure script to remove from WINELOADER_LDFLAGS the linker option which adds in the wine_info.plist file. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44848 --- Comment #4 from Andy P <pembertona(a)gmail.com> --- @Ken: sounds painful. :) Well - where there's a will there's a way... one way (an admittedly unclean one, as per your earlier comment) is to edit the binary (I used an app called HexFiend for the Mac). See screenshot. Confirmed this works... however it's manual, error prone, and not so easy to automate. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
