I've seen in the crossover office that there is a reboot.so file, but I think thats codeweaver's closed source part since it's not part of wine itself (if I'm not mistaken)
Well, when we were hip deep in preparation for CrossOver Office, Andreas had just started doing a full set of boot processing logic. I had a conversation with Andreas about it; convinced that his was the 'right' approach, but that it wouldn't be ready soon enough for us, we hacked together something quick and dirty.
The idea was that Andreas was to have been done by now, hint, hint <grin>.
Andi?
/me better won't reveal his feelings now :-\
I'm attaching the current implementation of programs/wineboot. I removed all GUI code and made sure that it still works, but it's not fully ready yet, I think (configuration settings, for example). I always planned to finish it, but with 50 mails in my "reply" queue and Linuxtag looming, the prospects for this are a bit grim at the moment... Also, I feel that I'm still a bit unsure as to how exactly it should be implemented: - how exactly are we going to check for new "bootup" entries to be processed ? - when exactly would it be run - etc. etc.
In case someone wants to work on it, feel free. Otherwise I'll continue to work on it when I've got a lot more free time, i.e. in August/September.
