DESCRIPTION
winemaker is a perl script designed to help you bootstrap the process
of converting your Windows sources to Winelib programs.
In order to do this winemaker can perform the following operations:
- rename your source files and directories to lowercase in the event
they got all uppercased during the transfer.
- perform Dos to Unix (CRLF to LF) conversions.
- scan the include statements and resource file references to replace
the backslashes with forward slashes.
- during the above step winemaker will also perform a case insensitive
search of the referenced file in the include path and rewrite the
include statement with the right case if necessary.
- winemaker will also check other more exotic issues like '#pragma
pack' usage, use of "afxres.h" in non MFC projects, and more. Whenever
it encounters something out of the ordinary, winemaker will warn you
about it.
- winemaker can also scan a complete directory tree at once, guess what
are the executables and libraries you are trying to build, match them
with source files, and generate the corresponding Makefile.
- finally winemaker will generate a global Makefile for normal use.
- winemaker knows about MFC-based project and will generate customized
files.
- winemaker can read existing project files. It supports dsp, dsw,
vcproj and sln files.
OPTIONS--nobanner
Disables the printing of the banner.
--backup
Directs winemaker to perform a backup of all the source files in
which it makes changes. This is the default.
--nobackup
Tells winemaker not to backup modified source files.
--nosource-fix
Directs winemaker not to try fixing the source files (e.g. Dos
to Unix conversion). This prevents complaints if the files are
readonly.
--lower-all
Tells winemaker to rename all files and directories to lower‐
case.
--lower-uppercase
Tells winemaker to only rename files and directories that have
an all uppercase name. So "HELLO.C" would be renamed but not
"World.c".
--lower-none
Tells winemaker not to rename files and directories to lower
case. Note that this does not prevent the renaming of a file if
its extension cannot be handled as is, e.g. ".Cxx". This is the
default.
--lower-include
Tells winemaker that if it does not find the file corresponding
to an include statement (or other form of file reference for
resource files), then it should convert that filename to lower‐
case. This is the default.
--nolower-include
Tells winemaker not to modify the include statement if it cannot
find the referenced file.
--guiexe | --windows
Specifies that whenever winemaker finds an executable target, or
a target of unknown type, it should assume that it is a graphi‐
cal application. This is the default.
--cuiexe | --console
Specifies that whenever winemaker finds an executable target, or
a target of unknown type, it should assume that it is a console
application.
--dll This option tells winemaker that whenever it finds a target of
unknown type, i.e. for which it does not know whether it is an
executable or a library, it should assume it is a library.
--mfc Specifies that the targets are MFC based. In such a case wine‐
maker adapts the include and library paths accordingly, and
links the target with the MFC library.
--nomfc
Specifies that targets are not MFC-based. This option disables
use of MFC libraries even if winemaker encounters files
"stdafx.cpp" or "stdafx.h" that would cause it to enable MFC
automatically if neither --nomfc nor --mfc was specified.
-Dmacro[=defn]
Adds the specified macro definition to the global list of macro
definitions.
-Idir Appends the specified directory to the global include path.
-Pdir Appends the specified directory to the global dll path.
-idll Adds the Winelib library to the global list of Winelib libraries
to import.
-Ldir Appends the specified directory to the global library path.
-llibrary
Adds the specified library to the global list of libraries to
link with.
--nodlls
This option tells winemaker not to use the standard set of
winelib libraries for imports. That is, any DLL your code uses
must be explicitly passed to winemaker with -i options. The
standard set of libraries is: odbc32.dll, odbccp32.dll,
ole32.dll, oleaut32.dll and winspool.drv.
--nomsvcrt
Sets some options to tell winegcc not to compile against msvcrt.
Use this option if you have cpp-files that include <string>.
--interactive
Puts winemaker in interactive mode. In this mode winemaker will
ask you to confirm each directory's list of targets, and then to
provide directory and target specific options.
--single-target name
Specifies that there is only one target, and that it is called
"name".
--generated-files
Tells winemaker to generate the Makefile. This is the default.
--nogenerated-files
Tells winemaker not to generate the Makefile.
--wine32
Tells winemaker to generate a 32-bit target. This is useful on
wow64 systems. Without that option the default architecture is
used.
EXAMPLES
Here is a typical winemaker use:
$ winemaker --lower-uppercase -DSTRICT .
The above tells winemaker to scan the current directory and its subdi‐
rectories for source files. Whenever if finds a file or directory which
name is all uppercase, it should rename it to lowercase. It should then
fix all these source files for compilation with Winelib and generate
Makefiles. The '-DSTRICT' specifies that the STRICT macro must be set
when compiling these sources. Finally winemaker will create a Makefile.
The next step would be:
$ make
If at this point you get compilation errors (which is quite likely for
a reasonably sized project) then you should consult the Winelib User
Guide to find tips on how to resolve them.
For an MFC-based project you would have to run the following commands
instead:
$ winemaker --lower-uppercase --mfc .
$ make
For an existing project-file you would have to run the following com‐
mands:
$ winemaker myproject.dsp
$ make
TODO / BUGS
In some cases you will have to edit the Makefile or source files by
yourself.
Assuming that the windows executable/library is available, we could use
winedump to determine what kind of executable it is (graphical or con‐
sole), which libraries it is linked with, and which functions it
exports (for libraries). We could then restore all these settings for
the corresponding Winelib target.
Furthermore winemaker is not very good at finding the library contain‐
ing the executable: it must either be in the current directory or in
the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
Winemaker does not support message files and the message compiler yet.
