winecfg turned into control-panel-applets. see patch.

Well, this is my first patch. Here goes. It *enhances* winecfg's source and creates a winecfgcpl.cpl, which, when placed into ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32 shows the different "tabs" as different applets (six of them), visible via "wine control". 1.) Enhancements to winecfg - now the winecfg

Woah, that's ubercool. The presentation is excellent! However, you could add five collosal IMHO advantages of wine: 1. NO 1000 DISCONTINUED WIN VERSIONS That's what largely made me dump 'doze and go for Linux - got 6 W98 licenses, and at some point, upgraded the hardware to discover that 98 doe

Control-panel app. Works with mingw, need help with winegcc

2008-03-31 Thread pure_evil
Okay, this is as far as apparently I can make it on my own. This is the *basic* control panel applet. I used Dev-c++ (it's C though). It compiles with mingw and works flawlessly - you know, exports what it should export etc. etc. etc. The result, copied onto c:\windows\system32 shows up in the

Sorry bout that, went a lil' /too/ paranoid. Thing is, I've spent so many days obsessing with the cpls, trying to get anything resembling a somewhat stable dev environment to produce anything resembling a *compilable* code, reverse-engineering Makefiles, and Makefile.ins, and defs and specs and

No dice. CPls are DLLs that export a function - CPlApplet(). winegcc coughs on dllexport. - not implemented. I've been hacking at it for days on end now. Result: CPl can be compiled under windows and run under wine. CPls compiled with winegcc don't export that function => not treated as control

DLL exports... HELP?!

Folks, I've been trying to make a bunch of control panel applets for wine for some time now. a CPL is basically a DLL which (the most importnat part) exports a function called "CPlApplet"; Without it, the cpl isn't worth a thing. It is the presence of that export which basically iden

Folks, I'm working with Dan Kegel on the idea of a winecfg/control panel merger; I did a .cpl or two a few days ago, but it seems I didn't quite understand the rules of the dev on wine/ or on linux for that matter :( I need someone to show me the ropes... Basically, The Toolbox. Question 1: I ne

I made the first cpl (intl.cpl), and, the actual executable that goes with it. http://www.keepandshare.com/doc/view.php?id=460541&da=y that should link to a file called intl_wine.zip.

Hey folks I was thinking of writing some substitutes/stubs for the windows .CPL files. I migrated to using linux as a desktop fairly recently /used it for servers for a while, though/. Adapting to the linux equivalents of the programs I use, using wine for the rest etc. Whilst "reinventing" the
