You can generally use other Clipper add-on products with
Clip-4-Win, providing these do not conflict with Windows. Since
Windows controls the hardware (and runs in "protected mode"), you
cannot use DOS-dependent libraries that attempt to access the
hardware directly. For example, most of FUNCky is compatible.
Popular add-ons like SuperClass, Class(y), FlexFile, RDD's from
SuccessWare, COMIX, dbClass and ObjectDB can be used.
Windows add-ons like CA-RET, Crystal Reports, BTrieve, Q+E
Database Lib, Graphics Server (Bits Per Second / Pinnacle), SOS
Help for Windows, and Strike! for Windows are all being used.
Clip-4-Win is shipped with a 420-page manual, a Windows Help file
and a 1.1MB Norton Guide file.
Because RTLink can not (yet) make Windows .EXE programs, you need
another linker. We recommend Blinker 3, SLR Systems OptLink or
Microsoft LINK 5.30 (for example, from C7) or later, although
LINK 5.10 appears OK (from C6). The companion product,
Clip-4-Win Toolkit, provides MS LINK 5.60 as well as Borland's
Resource Workshop.
It is impossible to say how much memory you need, as it depends
on your program and how you have Windows set up. We recommend at
least 4MB for development, as Windows is terribly slow if it does
not have enough. Applications will usually run fine in 2MB, but
4MB is likely to give better performance.
