Hi N8,
[How can I write a shared library that uses Wine and
can be called from a non-winelib app?]
This is a somewhat frequently asked question.
I did try to find the answer in the documentation before posting here
but couldn't find anything.
As Stephan
explained, wine's code requires that the process have
been set up somewhat specially. This is taken care of
by the sources in the loader subdirectory. In a perfect
world, some of that code would move into the
operating system's process loader... then one could mix and match
win32 and unix calls more easily. Anyway, knowing about
the code in that directory is key to understanding
why what you ask is hard, and in finding a workaround.
Ok, I guess it's not simple, which is what I wanted to know. I don't
have time to become an expert in loading/linking windows programs, so
I suppose I can live with an IPC-based solution.
Thanks for the help, and thanks to Stefan and Tom as well.
