Thank you very much, Eric,
For taking the time to help me.
I'm afraid I may not have explained my problem very clearly:
First, if I use Winelib, must I bind the resources to my executable?
The reason I ask is because since I am developing an application for the
Mac, can I bind resources to the Macintosh exectable? I thought that
that might be a problem.
that's supported. resources are compiled as a big byte array (as a C
file), and then included in the exec.
I understand that Wine has components in it that are like a system
loader, meaning that it is able to bring the executable image into
memory and then resolve the .DLL entry points it needs. This is more
than what I need, actually.
yes
Also, I don't expect that it can do this with a Macintosh executable,
or can it?
as of today, winelib programs are system shareable libraries, loaded by
a system executable called wine. (replace here system by mac, linux...).
That's why I was wondering if the resource-manipulation routines can
read .RES files, which should (in theory) be platform independant.
they are partly portable (except for typedefs, remaining calls...)
OK, so in essence, what I am looking for is portable code that will be
able to walk a .RES file and load things from it.
then do as Alexandre suggested.
A+
