Hi, I'm trying to find some elegant method to access registry keys added during one WINE session, i.e. without restarting WINE.
Test case description: 1. Open WINE session wineconsole --backend=user cmd 2. During session, insert some new registry key regedit new-entry.reg 3. Try to access the new registry entry from bash cat ~/.wine/system.reg |grep AutoHotkey (fails) 4. Close WINE session
I've found there was at times an option to save registry periodically, but this can't help me here.
This problem can be solved in two ways, both of them can be helpful:
a) Create small program to force sync of registry in memory with registry files - 'wineflushregistry'.
b) Enhance regedit to be able to output to STDOUT. By default registry search output is done to a specified file. It can be redirected to STDERR, though. (tested on 0.9.29, 0.9.33)
Enhancing regedit -----------------
regedit /es "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\AutoHotkey.exe"
which will be similar to (non-functional)
regedit /e /dev/stdout "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\AutoHotkey.exe"
