I am having a problem compiling a simple winelib program which relies on a dll which uses the stdcall calling convention. I used pexports on the dll avisynth_c.dll to created the spec and then edited the file to removed the leading underscore in the names (without that it would not link). That file is attached. Than with only "avisynth_c.h", "avs2yuv.cpp" and "libavisynth_c.def" in the current directory. I ran winemaker --console -iavisynth_c --single-target avs2yuv.exe . ./configure --with-wine=/opt/wine/ make then I copy the required DLL in the current directory and attempt to run it.

I have stdcall working fine here. There is something wrong with your DLL the fact that "pexports" dumped "_" before symbol names is a clue to those functions been exported as cdecl. In stdcall (or PASCAL) no under-scored is perpended. (and you should see the @number at end of names). check to see how this DLL was compiled on windows (or wine). Was it compiled with a .DEF file?

Kevin is right on all accounts. I can reproduce his problems here. If I go to the foo.spec.c file produced by winebuild for the user application and manually change, at the big "import" structure, all the stdcall functions than it works. An example is do. What was produced by winebuild: <original foo.dll.spec.c> static struct { struct { void *OriginalFirstThunk; unsigned int TimeDateStamp; unsigned int ForwarderChain; const char *Name; void *FirstThunk; } imp[11]; const char *data[109]; } imports = { { ..... /* foo.dll */ "\001\000fnFooC", "\002\000fnFooSTD", 0, .... </original foo.dll.spec.c> change to : <fixed foo.dll.spec.c> ..... /* foo.dll */ "\001\000fnFooC", "\002\000_fnFooSTD(a)8", 0, .... </fixed foo.dll.spec.c> than compilation and runtime succeeds. So the fault is at winebuild (when doing the Import, since the .def file had it right) . Or is there a switch missing? If I understood correctly the process that is done on windows. Than all the searching and converting of Names is done by the VC linker. Hence the fix should be done at winebuild. In windows an: " int __stdcall fnFooSTD(long ,long) declaration linked against an import-lib of a DLL. Will look and successfully link both fnFooSTD (in-case a .DEF file was used in compilation of the DLL) or _fnFooSTD(a)8. (Needless to say that an ordinal will replace a name if Flagged by the import-lib). winebuild successfully understood that an _fnFooSTD(a)8 should make an fnFooSTD symbol for GCC (at the "asm(".data\n) section) but forgot to keep the real _fnFooSTD(a)8 name for the import-table. Any one with a quick hand at the winebuild? I have at hand the most simple dll compiled by VC6 (+sources) and the winelib app any one wants to have a look? Please forgive me if this was already fixed since I have an old Wine (2 month old) Free Life Boaz Kevin Atkinson wrote:

No, that's not a winebuild problem. You have fixed names directly in the imports, that means that your dll is broken, i.e. it has decorated (@xx) API names in the exports.

Well yes they are decorated. This is the way the VC made them. I guess they are not Decorated only if you use a .DEF file. If you export them with __declspec(dllexport) they are exported decorated. I hope 17K is what you mean by small. All files and Foo.dll are windows files. only fooapp.cpp & Foo.dll.spec are winelib source files. I did not send Linux makefiles, to keep it small. Boaz

You are correct. If I use a .def file WITH the @ decorations that I get linker errors. If I use a .def with just the names they are exported without the @, EVEN if they are still declared with dllexport. Very strange. -- http://kevin.atkinson.dhs.org

I'm tempted to say that it's a MS' linker bug. But I'm afraid that there are lots of applications build that way (using __declspec(dllexport)) and not a .def file. You could try to add decorations to the stdapi exports in the .spec file in order to workaround that. Or even add the decoration twice. You have to try it actually and look at the generated .spec.c file to see what happens in reality. -- Dmitry.

How would you imagine that fix? A .spec file is generated by you and not by winebuild. Just place the correct API names there (i.e. real names from the export table of your dll, what ever they are). -- Dmitry.

I tried Dmitry's solution but it does not work. If I put at my foo.dll.spec : @ stdcall fnFooSTD(long long) _fnFooSTD(a)8 I get at my libFoo.def : fnFooSTD(a)8=_fnFooSTD(a)8@8 @2 And at my app.exe.spec.c I still get fnFooSTD in my Import table If I manually change libFoo.def to: fnFooSTD(a)8=_fnFooSTD(a)8 @2 I still get fnFooSTD in my Import table If I do @ stdcall fnFooSTD(a)8(long long) I get at libFoo.def a: fnFooSTD(a)8 @2 And I still get fnFooSTD in my Import table And even if I do: @ cdecl fnFooSTD(long long) _fnFooSTD(a)8 I get my fnFooSTD=_fnFooSTD(a)8 @2 And I still get fnFooSTD in my Import table So currently the only way to get it right ( That I found. I will be happy for suggestions) Is to: 1) manually patch the app.exe.spec.c after it was Generated I would like to summarize: in an stdcall functions generated by MSVC++ export directive, One needs a none-decorated name in his asm.data section to satisfy the GCC linker. and a Decorated name in the Import table to satisfy the Loader. Currently there is no way to do it Automatically. [Q] If we are at it can we get rid of the libFoo.def file all together and link directly with Foo.dll.spec file. It looks like a much easier system to maintain. I recall a discussion about it but can't remember what was said. I understand, Historical reason, but it looks silly that I have to invoke WINEBUILD to read in a .SPEC file and write a .DEF file and then invoke it once again to read in a .DEF file. It sounds like this old, "One Policeman can read One Policeman can write" Joke. No offense intended. I do understand, History.

You have to put approximately following in the .spec file to make it work: foo.dll.spec : @ stdcall fnFooSTD(a)8(long long) _fnFooSTD(a)8 or try do add @8 twice on one/both of the sides. That's a pure speculation on my side, you have to try it on your own and experiment a bit. -- Dmitry.
I did, I have tried both your suggestions. What ever you do. any thing after the @ sign gets truncated in the import process and will not Reach the Import table. Note that in any way we need a split. asm(.data section) needs a none-decorated name and the Import table needs a Decorated one. What ever you do to winebuild it will not write two separate names. right? Or maybe it is my 2-month old wine? was that fixed lately? Dmitry Timoshkov wrote:

What ever you do. any thing after the @ sign gets truncated in the import process and will not Reach the Import table.
Note that in any way we need a split. asm(.data section) needs a none-decorated name and the Import table needs a Decorated one. What ever you do to winebuild it will not write two separate names. right?

That is a heck of a lot of work to link with a DLL that is not compiled with an exports table. Furthermore, when I use an exports table (ie compile with /def in VC++) mingw has problems linking with the DLL. It could be that I need to pass in special options. Simply including the ".lib" file as a link object is not enough. It seams rather strange that wine has so much problems linking with a DLL not compiled with an exports table. Am I the first one who attempted this. -- http://kevin.atkinson.dhs.org

I don't understand you. If a DLL exports something (i.e. has a not zero export directory in the PE header), then it definitely has an export table.
Furthermore, when I use an exports table (ie compile with /def in VC++) mingw has problems linking with the DLL. It could be that I need to pass in special options. Simply including the ".lib" file as a link object is not enough.
MinGW (or rather Windows ld port) has its own heuristics for resolving symbols in external libraries. So, just stick to rules and read its documentation. I have an old dllhelpers-0.2.6.tar.gz addon for MinGW with samples how to use DLLs with MinGW, you could find something similar on the net. I'd say that the key of your problems is a bug in MS linker which exports decorated API names. That's similar to an attempt to link against a DLL with C++ style decorated exports created by a compiler from another vendor.

Probably. Don't forget: Wine is alpha software. Every your contribution makes it better, as it has become much better with the help of many other people. -- Dmitry.

Sorry. I mean what it is compiled with a .def file rather than using __declspec(dllexport).

If the names are not decorated in that fashion mingw has a problem linking with it. When linked the linker is looking for the names with the '@' decoration. I would hardly call the '@' decoration a bug, it is the way it is done in windows. It is spelled out in the documentation that way.

Yeah, yeah. I don't know the least thing about windows linking or how to fix wine to make it handle this situation better. So I guess if I don't contribute a patch to handle this it won't get fixed anytime soon. -- http://kevin.atkinson.dhs.org

That's a misunderstanding. Symbols get decorated only in object files, linker strips them out and a final PE binary should not have that crap. All standard windows dlls have no '@' character in the exported APIs. However as you have discovered MS linker does not always strip the stdcall decorations. That does not affect the things under Windows if both .exe and .dll were created by the same (buggy) tool chain. But in the case of mixing build environments you have a lot of troubles. -- Dmitry.

But also when I link with the DLL. When I attempt to link I get this: gcc -O -Wall -shared examples.o avisynth_c.lib -o examples.dll examples.o(.text+0x33):examples.c: undefined reference to `avs_new_c_filter(a)20' examples.o(.text+0x41):examples.c: undefined reference to `avs_set_to_clip(a)8' With the __declspec(dllimport): gcc -O -Wall -shared examples.o avisynth_c.lib -o examples.dll examples.o(.text+0x34):examples.c: undefined reference to `_imp__avs_new_c_filter(a)20' examples.o(.text+0x43):examples.c: undefined reference to `_imp__avs_set_to_clip(a)8' So without special treatment mingw gcc seams to also expect the @ decoration. I don't care if you consider it a "bug". I am just reporting how it is done. And the fact that it is causing me a lot of grief. -- http://kevin.atkinson.dhs.org

Our spec file are different because my one is for Foo.dll, and yours is for fooapp.exe. Anyway I'm attaching my sources and Makefiles. I simply integrated Foo.dll into Wine dll/ tree and hacked Makefiles accordingly. And no, I didn't succeed linking with Foo.dll.so. Mainly because winebuild doesn't know how to resolve a non stdcall decorated symbol to a decorated one. Let's wait for Alexandre and hear his opinion whether it worths the trouble adding support for linking with broken Windows DLLs. -- Dmitry.
Thanks. So I'll stay with my current hand hacked .spec.c file. It does work at least. My be we should define a new keyword in spec files, let's say "decorated" which implies stdcall and keeps the decoration on the export/import table. I'll look into it once I finish my current doing.

If we are at it can we get rid of the libFoo.def file all together and link directly with Foo.dll.spec file. It looks like a much easier system to maintain. I recall a discussion about it but can't remember what was said.
But you are dealing just with the .spec file, the .spec -> .def file is both automatic and fast. Not a concern. But it allows our build process to be closer to the native one, which is good and quite valuable to Winelib. I see no reason to change the current setup. -- Dimi.
