Re: WineLib and DLLs (Winedump)

The README section on inserting the stub dll into the wine tree
seems a little out-dated.  It tells me to run autoconf, but
autoconf complains that it cannot find configure.in - is this
step still needed?

If I skip autoconf (which may be causing this problem), when
I run make depend I get:

cd `dirname dlls/__depend__` && make depend
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/stevenlu/wine/dlls'
cd `dirname errh_auto/__depend__` && make depend
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/stevenlu/wine/dlls/errh_auto'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `depend'.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/stevenlu/wine/dlls/errh_auto'
make[1]: *** [errh_auto/__depend__] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/stevenlu/wine/dlls'
make: *** [dlls/__depend__] Error 2

I ran the install script that winedump produced, but maybe that's
not up-to-date with respect to the current wine build process?
Or am I just doing something else wrong?

Hi,

look at tools/winedump. In spec mode it will generate everything you
need to link to this dll - a makefile and dummy implementation, spec
file and a script to insert it into your existing WINE tree (to link
with). The README gives instructions for exactly this case (and some
other more advanced ones).

Cheers,
Jon
