Hello,
It includes 3 lists, a gold list with applications what are working almost 100% in wine, a silver list with application what could be working in wine with some work in them, and the full list with every test done :)
Speaking about IE 5.5, I was able to install it without first installing dcom95/98 simply by placing rundll32.exe in the c:\windows directory. I know that a pre-requisite of the compatibility list is not to have files coming from a Windows installation, so I wanted to ask everybody: should be build a built-in version of rundll32.exe (just like we have regedit and regsvr32)?
yes.
Or is this job already on the plate of who is in charge of doing the "reboot" utility (a bunch of the RunOnce entries written by the installer of IE are calls to rundll32.exe)?
Isn't rundll32's job to run out-of-process COM servers which have been registered, for example, via regsvr32? If I have this right, this is not going to be an easy thing to implement, since it will need data marshalling, and other scary features, some of which I am working on now....right? I think we need some of the COM wizards around here to provide some guidance on this.
Or am I volunteering for the job? ;-)
yes ;) Or maybe not. see above.
