: Running Borland C++ in windows 3.1
: ==================================
:
: Some useful tips to get it to work if you've got the windows sdk
: (or a "friend" has...)
:
: TDW
: copy windev\cvwin.dll to borland\bin\windebug.dll
:
: Winsight & Dr Frank
: copy windev\toolhelp.dll to borland\bin\toolhelp.dll
:
:
: When compiling code under win31 the old header file works ok 'cept you
: dont get all the new stuff for which you'll need a new set of header files.
:
: Some changes to MS's header file are needed for BC++ compatibility
: and backwards compatibility too.
:
: These changes can be found by diff'ing the old & new files
:
:
: Most significant: win31 has
:
: typedef WORD unsigned short
: and not
: typedef WORD unsigned int //win 3.0
:
:
:
: while currently the word sizes are the same, the compiler
: complains when you've been mixing pointers to these or mix
: WORD and unsigned in code. Redefining this to its old version works ok.
:
: Trying to rebuild owl doesn't work with my modified header file,
: that's something which I'll leave to Borland
:
: NB: my dos IDE seems to crash if you hit any key while saving now -
: this may be related to the upgrade of smartdrive/emm386/himem?
:
Borland released an interim debug dll on their BBS or on CI$.
