Everyone,
Well, I finally got the Workframe/2, Toolkit/2, and C Set/2 products installed
on my machine from my developer's CD-ROM. Now, the next question probably
sounds kind of stupid, but bear with me, as I am a beginner at PM (and OS/2)
programming!
I've just got a few questions:
1. What do I do to get started? I mean, for never having programmed
for OS/2 before (just DOS), should I print out all the .INF files
and read them, or do I go out and find a OS/2 programming book, both,
neither, etc..?
2. Just curious about the .INF files. They look like they have alot
of information in them. Is the information in the .INF files all the
function/API calls supported by OS/2, or are the .INF files a 'incomplete'
reference?
I want to write both character mode and PM apps for OS/2. What would be
the easiest to learn first? Any experience/suggestion would be greatly
appreciated!
Thanks alot for all the help!
