Is more > information available somewhere? Mea culpa. winegcc is relatively new, but this is no excuse for the lack of documentation. I should have fixed that some time ago, but Real Life (TM) cought up with me lately. However, the situation is not so bad. The vision behind winegcc is simple: if you can build your project with MinGW, simply change the defintion of the Makefile variables CC/CXX/CPP/WRC from gcc/g++/cpp/windres to winegcc/wineg++/winecpp/wrc and you should be all set. (I thrown winecpp in there for completeness, but very few projects will need to worry about it). Of course, things are not 100% perfect, but they are OK, and in theory there shoudn't be a need for a lot more documentation than what I have in this email :))) Let me know if you need a hand. -- Dimi.

This was the first time that I learned about the existence and purpose of winegcc. I couldn't find any information in the Winelib user's guide nor is there a man page. Is winegcc quite new? Is more information available somewhere? Thanks, Ralf

default wine browser
by Chris Morgan Dec. 30, 2003

Dec. 30, 2003

In trying to install the United Devices application the installer prompts me to go to a website to get the msi installer. Wine doesn't have a HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\classes\http\shell\open\command key in the registery. I was thinking about making a shell script something along the lines of: if browserX exists browserX $1 else if browserY exists browserY $1 ... I would imagine most people have mozilla installed on their machines and we can check for konqueror, opera and other browsers. I've created a simple 'winebrowser' script, placed it in /usr/local/bin manually thus far, set the value for the above key to 'winebrowser %1' and symlinked /wine/system/ winebrowser.exe to /usr/local/bin/winebrowser. Sound reasonable? Comments? ;-) Chris

Hi, Just to let you know: I started on the winecfg thingy officially now :-). This is the first time I encounter C Win32 code, and I'm loving it already :-S. Now I know why Windows is so unstable ;-). Grtz, Robert

Now, if you are familiar with the richedit problem, can you come up with a list of tasks that will eventually lead to a full blown richedit control? It is a big task, if we break it into smaller, self contained ones (like the ones you mentioned) maybe someone will start working on it. -- Dimi.

Installing from an .inf file? (fwd)

I was redirected to wine-devel. Attached is the .inf file if it would help. -- http://kevin.atkinson.dhs.org ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sat, 27 Dec 2003 14:50:48 -0500 (EST) From: Kevin Atkinson <kevina(a)gnu.org> To: wine-users(a)winehq.com Subject: Installing from an .inf file? Is there a way to install from a .inf file in wine. In particular I am trying to install the huffyuv codec. I tried this: wine rundll setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 huffyuv.inf (After copying rundll into the fake windows directory) but it didn't seam to do anything. I got the command line from the install association a .inf file had in Win98SE. Is there a way to do this? You can get huffyuv from http://www.divx-digest.com/software/huffyuv.html -- http://kevin.atkinson.dhs.org _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users(a)winehq.com http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users

This is a request to understand, not a suggestion (yet?). Why not use a general purpose DB system? (postgresql, mysql, whatever) After all, the registry is just a tree shaped database. We can do that using standard SQL, and fall back to our current method if a proper DB is not found.
