[patch] load wininet dynamically in cygcheck

Brian Dessent brian@dessent.net
Fri Jan 13 18:49:00 GMT 2006


This uses LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress instead of -lwininet so that systems
lacking IE3 can still run cygcheck.  Tested on XP and NT4, and verified that
with WININET.DLL renamed cygcheck can still function.

2006-01-13  Brian Dessent  <brian@dessent.net>

	* Makefile.in (cygcheck.exe): Do not link against libwininet.a.
	* cygcheck.cc (pInternetCloseHandle): Define global function pointer.
	(display_internet_error): Use it.
	(package_grep): Attempt to load wininet.dll at runtime.  Call WinInet
	API through function pointers throughout.
