urlmon missing InternetSecurityManager

[Jeroen Janssen]

Hello,

It seems urlmon is missing a (stubbed) IInternetSecurityManager Interface
(see also
http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/security/szone/reference/ifaces/iinternet...
).

Since I am new to this, I was wondering how I can create a stubbed
implementation. As far as I can tell I need to :
* update the urlmon.idl (add IInternetSecurityManager)
* create a stubbed implemenation in dlls/urlmon/; making sure the stubbed
interface also gets registered during 'wineprefixcreate'.

Are there any (wine) pointers on implementing a new (stubbed) COM interface?

Best regards,

Jeroen Janssen

You will need to update the corresponding urlmon.h header file too, so 
that it can be used by C code. You can do this by running "make idl" in 
the wine/include/ directory.
Lionel Ulmer had a script to create a stubbed out COM interface, so 
maybe he could give you the script or create the interface for you. 
However, given the relatively small number of methods in 
IInternetSecurityManager it might be just as easy to create it by hand.

Yes, I expected something like that too..
On a side note, why is this not done during the "regular make" process?

Any idea why this script is not in the wine tree somewhere? (tools/?)

Because it was an unmanageable Python hack that worked for me after a lot of
tweakings (for DirectX and QUARTZ).

I can see if I can get something clean out of it for submission (but I do
not even remember what the inputs were :-) ).

right

right... though you should only need to add an implementation of 
URLMON_DllRegisterServerEx to make that work, assuming that wine.inf 
already tries to register urlmon.dll

It's nice to have a test program (usually built on a windows machine) to 
test your new interface.  Make sure you get the right number of methods 
in the right order, with the right calling convention and arguments. 
You need to implement IUnknown manually.  You probably want to reference 
another piece of code that already implements a COM interface... there's 
plenty in dlls/shell32 and dlls/ole32.  (eg. dlls/shell32/shelllink.c)

have fun,
