I have an app that tests the version number of certain dlls it uses on

The first seems to be riched20.dll

If I run it on 20050524 it starts and works.

If I run from the same installation after installing wine-0.9 (or just
about any winecfg based version) it starts throwing errors like:

riched20.dll version<unspecified> was found, this program requires at

I then have to pull in a native dll and tell wine to go native when in
fact the buildin functions  work perfectly.

bug or feature?

I guess this was done intentionally or is a result of an intentional
change and seems related to winecfg becoming active.

What is the best way to deal with this? It seems a shame to install native
dlls when the wine code does the job.

Hi,

don't have time (yet) to do stuff in Wine, but have a look at
http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2005-September/020423.html

this shows you how to add version stuff to a dll.

cheers,

Paul


Thanks for the info.

I was not really wanting to get into recoding the wine dlls, I'm not sure I'm upto it and I would not have the inside knowlege to know what version would best represent each dll.

I have an app. which is working pretty well under 20050524 but if I run one of the winecfg releases the app. throws this version <unspecified> bit.

I would like to know what change brought this about.

Is the text "unspecified" actually returned by wine now or is this the app's interpretation.

There seems to be a definate regression here.

Do you have any more detail on this?

TIA
