I writing a wrapper, would it be correct to more or less follow this guide, on winelib dll's? <a href="http://www.winehq.org/site/docs/winelib-guide/bindlls">http://www.winehq.org/site/docs/winelib-guide/bindlls</a><br>
<br>I've never coded anything for Wine before so I want to make sure I do it right from the beginning instead of having to go back and make drastic changes.<br><br>I'll be looking at that opengl32 perl script because there is 102 pages of functions that cudart.dll and libcudart.so both contain.<br>

This is not going to work. PE style dynamic linking works quite<br>
different from ELF style dynamic linking. Wine can not link native ELF<br>
libraries to windows applications. The .dll.so files from wine are<br>
special in being ELF files but containing extra information that allows<br>
the Wine dynamic linker to link it into PE processes.<br>

</div>This is right. You need at least a correct .spec file to make a wine<br>
dll. You still have to implement a wrapper for each function, as Windows<br>
usually uses the stdcall calling convention, whereas linux uses cdecl by<br>
default. There might be some way to automate writing the wrapper<br>
functions.<br>
