A '''wrapper''' is a reimplementation of a [[wikipedia:Library (computing)|library]], where the goal is to substitute the original API with a better-supported interface. It works as a drop-in replacement for the original library, since a lot of software usually bundled it as-is without any fine-tuning. Wrappers are most common for proprietary interfaces that are either abandoned or otherwise platform-specific.

Note that there are more games using the said APIs which have not yet had the API information added on their pages. The other lists still require validation; it's a WIP. People are encouraged to contribute by directly checking the games with the appropriate tools. The details are on the PCGW editing guide.</ref>

:Wine's internal wrapper. Wraps DirectDraw and Direct3D up to 7 into Vulkan and OpenGL. It works pretty well for running older Direct3D games, though it does not come with a Glide implementation of its own. A custom build is available for Windows [https://fdossena.com/?p=wined3d/index.frag here].

Modern Windows games will likely need one of these wrappers to work on other platforms. Usually these are not separate downloads, and will come packaged into [[compatibility layers]] like [[Proton]], [[Wine]], or [https://www.codeweavers.com/crossover CrossOver].

The term "wrapper" is not entirely accurate for some software listed in this table, such as OpenAL Soft. Unlike a true wrapper, which translates or redirects API calls to another system (e.g., DSOAL mapping OpenAL to DirectSound3D), OpenAL Soft is a complete, open-source software implementation of the OpenAL 3D audio API. It directly provides full functionality, including positional audio, distance attenuation, Doppler effects, and environmental audio processing, through software-based rendering. Operating independently of hardware acceleration, OpenAL Soft supports multiple platforms (e.g., Linux, Windows, macOS) and audio backends (e.g., ALSA, PulseAudio, WASAPI), making it a standalone audio engine rather than a wrapper layer.
