Good way to use custom .dll.so ?

[lemonsqueeze]

Hi,

Working on a regression bug with a specific app atm
   https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38137

I've traced the problem to ieframe.dll.so and came up with a version 
that fixes it : overwriting /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/wine/ieframe.dll.so 
with it problem is gone. Now I have no idea what side effects this could 
have for other apps, so I'd rather leave the system lib alone and 
override it just for this app. How do I do this ??

I've come across
   http://wine-wiki.org/index.php/WINEDLLPATH
which seems to be what I'm looking for but it's not working.
(setting WINEDLLPATH new dll.so is not used)

Bottom of page also mentions that :
> For DLLs at least, you should be able to rename the .dll.so to a
> .dll and stick it in the application's directory.
> That doesn't work either.

There's got to be a clean way of doing this,
am I missing something here ?

In case that matters, working with wine 1.6 atm
(Looking for Ubuntu Trusty fix)

Cheers

Try with WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ieframe=n" in addition to the above step.
Once it works you could add an app specific dll override.

Wow, that was fast =)

Looks like it's not finding it now with WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ieframe=n" and 
.dll.so renamed to .dll in app directory. Getting:

err:ole:COMPOBJ_DllList_Add couldn't load in-process dll 
L"C:\\windows\\system32\\ieframe.dll"

Probably in addition you need to patch registry and remove full path from
ieframe.dll for the registered class.
