Re: Add new dll mscat32

2007-06-12 Thread Vijay Kiran Kamuju

Hi,

I havent tested by putting a stubbed dll, but i have tested it with
the native one.
Well, after I have written the stubbed dll, will test again.
As I have to check which function it actually uses.

Thanks,
VJ

 Hi,

 I would like to add a stub dll for mscat32.dll in wine.
 It mostly is a forwarder dll ie, it has forwards for most of the
 functions to wintrust.dll
 And it also provides functions for reading catalog files.
 It is mostly used by microsoft for it installers.
 I mean for its own products like Winodows Media Player 9, IE, etc.
 I wanted to inform to get the approval from wine team, for inclusion
 of this dll.


If adding a stub dll fixes a bug, there's not a lot of reason not to

First of all, please bottom-post on this mailing list.  You took me a
little too literally.  By 'adding a stub dll fixes a bug', I meant
that if the installer requires functionality in this dll, and adding
the dll and then implementing the required APIs gets the installer
working, there's no reason not to include it.
