Chris McKillroy asked:
I tried to use a DLL injection ... (http://www.madshi.net/madCodeHookDescription.htm) Under Solaris10 (wine version 0.9.49) the child process regularly crashed... [because] kernel32.dll.so always gets loaded to a varying address by the runtime linker
Yep. Known problem with Wine.
After a posting to the Solaris Linker mailing list we got an answer (http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/tools-linking/2007-November/000945.htm...) ... My question now is: How would I have to change things (makefile or whatsever) to get kernel32.dll.so linked in a way to achive that it will be loaded to address 0x7bf0000 each time under Solaris.
Good question. It's probably pretty involved; you may have to wait for an expert to try it and see what it breaks. Alexandre suggested it might not work recently (see http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10273#c17 ), but perhaps he's being overly pessimistic.
BTW if that idea works for Solaris, it might work for Linux, too. - Dan
