Hello :
At this moment i'm writing a socket class, quite similar to Winsock OCX control. It is written using unix sockets and threads.
One of the goals of this project would be replacing current native Winsock control by a "Bultin OCX". I've look at Wine Documentation ant it's simple to create a native DLL, but i've seen nothing about the possibility of creating a builtin OCX. Is there any way to do it? What about registry issues?
Thanks
Daniel Campos

Could you explain to me what the Winsock Control is? We have a winsock DLL implementation already.....

It is possible yes, but rather hard. OCXs are mainly for plugging into IDEs yes? They are normally shipped with the app. So would we really need one in Wine?
Also, such a thing would need to use the Win32 winsock api really, not unix sockets.
