subject: borland C++ for OS/2

Hiya David!

Whilst in deep thought, David Nugent unconsciously muttered
to Grant Beattie something about...

 GB>> I am using Borland C++ for OS/2 version 1.00, is this
 GB>> the latest?

 DN> No. 1.5 is the latest.

Riteo!

 GB>> How do I write PM stuff?

 DN> Programming ofr PM involves understanding how PM works, defining
 DN> window classes and writing window procedures and perhaps setting up,
 DN> loading and using resources. IBM have excellent technical
 DN> documentation on PM programming under OS/2 2.x, and there's a book
 DN> (one of many, but this is the best I've seen) written by Charles
 DN> Petzold called "Programming OS/2 Presentation Manager".
Unfortunately
 DN> unless there's been a new version released recently it only covers the
 DN> 16-bit API but not much has changed, although it is mildly annoying
 DN> that the sample sources won't compile without some minor adjustments
 DN> for use under a 32-bit compiler.

Do you run OS/2?

Have Fun,
Grant
