I had a look at msvcrt of the latest ReWind that is quite old but should be enough as well for the reqired parts. After examining the mixed-mode msvcrt (just the metadata not the code) I found that it contains little if any managed code so I will most likely be able to forward calls to a native msvcrt. As a conclusion I think that there will be no licensing problems. > I'm not sure if you realise it, but Wine is licensed under the LGPL, not > the GPL so I don't think using Wine's msvcrt code would be a problem > with inlining and using non-GPL programs. Inlining (done by the JIT at run time) is not just linking (that is permitted LGPL) and may not be permitted by LGPL. Kornél
