Hi
I'm trying to get Visual C++'s vcbuild (builds project files from the command line) running under Wine, but it seems to need CreateJobObject (and I'm guessing the other job object functions), which doesn't appear to be implemented yet.
Correct. Can you not use nmake or does vcbuild do something different?
Alas, vcbuild builds Visual C++ projects (.vcproj, .sln). There used to be a tool (accessible only via the VS GUI) to convert these to makefiles, but it's gone away as of VS2005. These project files are autogenerated so I can't just do a one-shot conversion via the GUI anyway :-(
This is the first program that I know of to use this function. Implementing it properly would be difficult, but it might be sufficient just to stub out the functions. A stub is just a function that prints a FIXME and returns a value that satisfies the calling code.
I'm guessing a stub may be sufficient, but the current stub (prints FIXME, returns 0) doesn't seem to be working well enough. Job objects seem to allow you to associate one or more processes with a Job, query if the process is part of the job, and return some information about those processes (including if they've terminated or not), and I don't know how much of that VC++ needs. Most of these functions seem to be just defined with an "@ stub" in spec files -- is there some way to find out which ones are being called?
thanks
