Bug ID: 50371
           Summary: Multiple games and applications need 'mfc70.dll'
           Product: Wine
           Version: 6.0-rc3
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

Hello folks,

to track applications that don't bundle it. Also to advertise the workaround
via 'winetricks' recipe that doesn't exist yet.

This bug is a placeholder - not for actual implementation. If you start wasting
time on this I'm not gonna talk to you anymore ;-)

https://web.archive.org/web/20201021070215/https://www.tmurgent.com/appv/en/...

Part of Visual Studio (.NET) 2002.

Mentioned at least once in bug 2944 ("Gatan Digital Micrograph (non-demo) won't
work with wine 20050419").

All 'GDILeaks' example applications from bug 50369 - Multiple tools for viewing
GDI handles/resources list and GDI leak detection require support for
PEB->GdiSharedHandleTable (GDIView, GDILeaks) also need this.

Fortunately I found the runtime libs are part of following downloads:

'Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2002 Service Pack 1':

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=22709

https://web.archive.org/web/20060509134332/http://download.microsoft.com/dow...

'Visual Studio .NET 2002 Service Pack 1 MFC70.DLL Security Update':

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3644

https://web.archive.org/web/20200618132846/https://download.microsoft.com/do...

These installers require .NET Framework 1.1 but currently don't work due to
Wine bugs and also requiring a "fake" VS.NET 2002 installation.

The wrapper extracts a single .NET installer binary which contains all the
.CABs and metadata (patcher manifest etc.) in the assembly resources. It uses
.NET 'Microsoft.WindowsInstaller.Package' module for installation/extraction.

To avoid installer prerequisites mess and multiple workarounds I provide you
with a simple command to extract the needed .CAB from the wrapped executables.

NOTE: It's 32-bit only by design.

I guess it makes sense to use the newer dlls from the 2006 security update in
the newly-to-be-created winetricks recipe. The update is also smaller.
