| Hello all. | | I am trying to use WINE to make a windoze-only development environment | (very rudimentar, command line cross-compiler and stuff) under Linux, | because GNU make is far superior from the M$'s 'nmake'. gcc is a better compiler, too. | ... | Since I am now running it under WINE (yeah! it *almost* works great), | I wonder if it is possible to hack wine so it tells the executed | program some different date and time (changing systime in Linux tends | to wreak havoc with makefiles and stuff) | | Can someone point out where the unix-to-windoze sysdate translation | is done so I can hack it? | Why would you think it would be in just one place? I don't know the API very well, but it is my impression that it is a mass of specialized hacks. There are probably 8192 date formats and 262144 functions to get some or all of them by. See for yourself: find <wine> -name '*.c' | xargs grep gettimeofday Lest you get discouraged, gettimeofday in the server is _probably_ for its own internal use, so this might be a morereasonable list: find <wine> -name '*.c' | xargs grep gettimeofday | grep -v server | TIA | | -- | | -- SNIP -- | | "The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has limits" | | +--------------------------------------+ | Eduardo | G.
