Hi,

I am working on porting a complex OS/2 application to Windows 3.1 (Yah, you heard it right: OS2 to Windows, not the other way). The application consists of multiple processes and multiple DLL running on top of OS/2 2.0.  

What I am looking for is a nice development environment for Windows 3.1 that will provide the following:

1. 32-bit protected mode environment
2. Multi-threading support
3. Pre-emptive scheduling of processes/threads
4. DLLs that have both instance and shared data
5. Inter-process semaphores

I know its a little bit too much to ask for. After all, when you are done providing it, you pretty much have your OS/2 or NT.

But, perhaps, there is something that is close to that and runs on Windows 3.1 ! If you have had experience with this type of product, I'd appreciate hearing from you.
