Having a spot of trouble getting this function implemented in Wine so I can install a program for my job. It is basically a VB app that interfaces with a MySQL server database. I have heard that I cannot use a native DLL to do the job since it is OLE, so I have been trying to write a stub for it. Unfortunately, this is my first try at developing for Wine and I have writer's block. The function I am trying to implement is GetRecordInfoFromGuids. Could anyone out there write a basic stub for this program, so I can implement it and at least have an example to work with????
BTW, I have installed DCOM98, Crystal Reports and SQL Network Client Utility with no problems..

Hmm, native OLE works fine :) I'd definately recommend trying that first.

That function is a convenience wrapper around GetRecordInfoFromTypeInfo, but we don't implement that either. In fact I'm not sure we support UDTs at all. Implementing this part of OLE Automation would take a fair bit of work. I'd try native DCOM first.

Hi guys,
I once tried to implement UDTs in wine (June this year...) but well I didn't finish it, didn't announce it or post any patches :)
I've implemented the IRecordInfo interface. Quite some stubs still. And all other stuff i've played with is inside 'IncompleteUDF.diff'. If anyone wants to try hacking on it, feel free to.
If anyone wants, i'll also have an old VB UDT Demo proggy including source to test in wine.
Bye Bye Niko
