Wine Calling Linux code from DLL

Question

I've got an utility (no source code avaliable) which is uses NTCAN.dll (dll comes with driver for ESD PCI CAN cards) to communicate via CAN. I want to use it in Linux which have a very similar library. I can recompile NTCAN.dll because i know all exported function names and signatures. The question is how to use linux native code from DLL using WINE?

Answer 1

This is a problem, as the DLL likely does some DeviceIoControl calls to its company driver. So you will have to reverse the driver too. Have you tried to ask the manufacturer of the card, they should be interested to sell it to customers with Linux.
