Help required regarding compilation of windows project in Linux via WineLib

[Anjan Sarkar]

Hello,
I am using wine for my personal interest and need your help regarding the following problem I have faced.
I have following configuration,

a) Red Had Linux 9.0 
b) Wine (wine-20030813.tar.gz) is extracted in /ww/wine-20030813
c) It creates a directory /c for windows
and /root/.wine
d) All the bin files are at /usr/local/bin

Wine runs fine in my machine. Now I try to complie windows project in Linux via WineLib.
I have made the following things,
copy all the .c, .h, .rc files from programs/winemine dir to programs/winemine2
then from winemine2 run the following commands,
$ winemaker --lower-uppercase .
$ ./configure --with-wine=/usr/local/wine

It gives me the error,
"checking for windef.h configure:error couldnot find Wine headers(windef.h)

I have also copy the file from /usr/local/include/wine/windows to current directory. Still the problem exists.

Kindly suggest me what I have to do?
Again please excuse me for this silly question.

Thanking you,
Anjan Sarkar

make sure you use --with-nptl when you configure Wine.

You shouldn't be running as root.

What windows project? The programs in programs/ get compiled wia Winelib by default.

Why do you do that?

Make sure that winemaker is a bit busted as of late.

Instead, I'd suggest using winegcc, it will find things automatically.
I'm not sure how the winemaker generated configure script works...

When using --with-wine=/usr/local/wine, "/usr/local/wine" or whatever
you substitute for it becomes $WINE_ROOT to the configure script.

Configure expects there are going to be certain things in the directory
tree at $WINE_ROOT.  The directories include:
  $WINE_ROOT/include
  $WINE_ROOT/include/wine
  $WINE_ROOT/include/wine/windows
  $WINE_ROOT/include/windows

./configure --with-wine=/ww/wine-20030813

You should also take Dimi's advice and see if winegcc, et al. will suit your needs.
