I am trying to get a rather large C++ program written in visual studio 6.0 to work on a linux system. I have installed the wine libraries and it runs just fine using: wine <executable name> However, I would like to be able to compile the program using winemaker on my linux box. Winemaker runs smoothly. However, the makefile generated by Winemaker in the root directory has all kinds of problems and wont compile.
Questions about winemaker/winelib should be directed to the wine-devel list.
Also, would the executable produced by winemaker be executable without wine? In other words could I ftp the code created by the makefile to another machine without wine and run the newly created windows application from that linux box?
No, you still need Wine. Winelib/winemaker are really only useful in porting apps to a non-x86 platform. And now that Macs are x86, and SolarisX86 is (once again) freely available, the usefulness of winelib has dropped considerably in my opinion.
