New subject: Wine DLLs compiled under Visual C

9 Sep 2002


      ...
I want to get some comments about how others here try to get the DLLs
compiled
under Visual C. I went ahead and tried to do this for 
shell32.dll and after
a
little work it went so far fine. However after creating a 
config.h file for
Visual C with a few definitions such as for inline, I had to 
make some minor
changes to some of the c source files such as adding an 
#include "config.h"
and sometimes #include "wine/port.h" to the beginning.
Yes. I have submitted most of my changes of that kind to the
CVS so the current status of that is quite good.
...
Is this the recommended way of doing things or is there a reason that
"config.h"
shouldn't be included in some of the dll source files? I ask because I
noticed
that in a few of the shell32 files it is included but in the 
several of them
it wasn't and in a few it doesn't (yet) need to be.
Use msvcmaker. It generates Visual Studio 6.0 .dsw and .dsp files
as well as an include/config.h file.
cd wine
./tools/winapi/msvcmaker
Then open wine.dsw in Visual Studio.
PS. Note that msvcmaker only runs under Unix.
I use Samba to export the directory to Windows.
