Wine has a lot of tests that are run across platforms to check conformance -- https://test.winehq.org/data/. These are a large part of why it has good compatibility.

With this exact point in mind: I've recently written a pretty straight forward win32 c implementation of a utility with some context dependent window interactions and a tray icon to help monitor and facility reload of config file.
Is there any way I can use the Wine project to facilitate this compiling and running straight under x11/linux environment as a integrated project that doesn't require the end user to fiddle with Wine? I don't mind bundling shared code as needed. Help appreciated, I tried hard and failed at this endeavour priorly.

I believe that's what Winelib is for: https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/wikis/Winelib-User's-G...
Yep. that's the route I tried before, no good, maybe it's just that the documentation is past it's sell by date, maybe it's lack of community use.. I'm just not seeing it. Even the article itself describes how to make an exe file... that will then work in Linux? Or is it simply a program that's easier to run on Wine? Loads of text with unclear details throughout it.
