1. Update: GenDLL
link: http://www.cyd.liu.se/~micol972/site/gendll02.zip
I've fixed a few bugs in this release, making it more likely work with
_your_ dll. I've also added the ability to call cdecl functions (if you like
to compile your dlls with MSVC and are to lazy to write _stdcall :) Finally,
I've written some DOS-specific replacement code for kernel32.dll, called
dosknl32.dll. This dll is automatically loaded whenever someone (either the
user or another dll) tries to load kernel32.dll and platform()=DOS32. The
dosknl32 library differs from its generic counterpart (genknl32) in that it
actually tries to emulate the functions, and not simply return a bogus
value. Obviously, only a very small subset of the Win API is covered. So far
I've got CreateFile, CloseHandle, WriteConsole, LocalAlloc and some others
working (more or less). At least they work well enough to enable my windows
bitmap library to run (test program included in zip file). If you want to
see a function added to dosknl32, and is or want to be familiar with MASM,
then feel free to dig in...
2. Update: GenDLL
link: http://www.cyd.liu.se/~micol972/site/gendll03.zip
This update concerns mainly those who are using linux. I've started working
on a kernel32 replacement for linux
(called linknl32). I never did figure out how to do memory allocation
through the kernel, but i have some
file handling functions working (..probably. the only function that i've
actually tested is WriteConsole, but it worked..)
The test programs won't run straight out of the box in linux(at least not
for me). I have
to specify the absolute filenames for the programs to find the dlls. Maybe
that has something
to do with my setup...
I've also added the ability to call _fastcall functions, and i fixed a bug
in define_c_func/proc
while i was at it.
