I'm a little confused on two points. I wrote a simple windows application just to open a window. It has a file menu with exit on it, and that's about it.
All the documentation I read for Winelib suggests that re-compiling the application is the best option as this will give a native linux app that can be run directly. But when I compile this app with winelib it generates "winer.exe.so" which needs to be started with the command "wine winer.exe.so". This isn't my idea of being able to be run directly.
Secondly, all my windows apps and DLL's are in Borland Builder (just native Win32 C, no VCL/MFC or other third party products). I have Kylix3 installed. I've managed to re-compile my test app with Kylix and link it to the Wine libraries. When I try and run the resulting executable it complains that it can't fine kernel32.dll.so. Just to test I tried copying kernel32.dll.so to the same place as my test app, same result. I added /usr/lib/wine to ld.so.conf and ran ldconfig, but this doesn't help either.
Anyone any ideas on either of these issues. Searching the lists it seems I'm the only one to attempt compiling with Kylix at all.
