Have you looked at creating a conformance test to include with Wine? That would be preferable.

I guess you would create a new test file dlls/advapi32/tests/service.c with a test of this behavior. Take a look at the other tests already there to get an idea of how it is done.

Included there are instructions for cross compiling a Windows executable in Linux using MinGW. No need to get and learn visual C++.

PS I'm new to this debugging without access to the applications source code, so any hints & tricks would be appreciated.

It looks like I may have to learn Intels assembler instruction set as well!, which I don't mind. The last time I wrote an assembly language program was 25 years ago on a PerkinElmer 3220 mini computer! So this should be fun.


Ack... assembler? Hopefully that won't be required ;)

Thanks, much appreciated, I'll take a look at the winedev-guide tonight, I am also really glad I don't need to buy visual C++ :)
Nick
