Wine on non-Unix platforms

I just asked a similar question on porting Wine to other platforms. I would be interested in hearing any other info you get offline. I'm looking at SDL as a possibility. Roger R. Cruz On Sep 22, 2011, at 4:01 PM, "DOSGuy" <wineforum-user@winehq.org> wrote: Greetings everyone. Let me start ...

Replacing X11 backend driver with SDL

Great. Thanks for the info. I'll start a preliminary investigation of adding an SDL back engine to Wine. Being new to Wine, is there documentation that explains how to port to a new platform? If not, I'll just dive into that code and try to understand all the X dependencies. Thanks Roger R. Cruz On ...

Replacing X11 backend driver with SDL

I have been doing some research on Wine and have the following questions   1) Would it be possible to run Wine on a non-X11 system if I replace its X11 backend driver with an SDL backend?  2) Does such a SDL driver exist or know of anyone who has worked on it but never made it into Wine? 3) Are all ...
