In the directories below this one you will find the following
|
||
|
|
Windows examples:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ALARM -a clock program
|
||
|
|
DATACTL -a demonstration of various types of dialog controls
|
||
|
|
EDIT -a simple editor that demonstrates the use of
|
||
|
|
an edit control
|
||
|
|
GENERIC -a generic windows application
|
||
|
|
HELPEX -a demonstration of the use of context sensitive help
|
||
|
|
ICONVIEW -a program that lets you view .ico files
|
||
|
|
LIFE -an entertaining game that demonstrates the use of bitmaps
|
||
|
|
and common dialogs
|
||
|
|
SHOOTGAL -a simple game
|
||
|
|
WATZEE -another simple game
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Below the directory that contains each example are the directories
|
||
|
|
where the examples are built. There are 3 build directories for
|
||
|
|
each example:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
WIN32 -build a Win32 version of the example here for Windows NT or Win32s
|
||
|
|
WIN386 -build a 32-bit version of the example here that can be run under
|
||
|
|
16-bit Windows using the Open Watcom Windows Supervisor.
|
||
|
|
WIN16 -build a 16-bit version of the example here to run under Windows 3.x.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In this directory is a file called win1632.h that contains several
|
||
|
|
useful macros that allow you to write code that can be compiled
|
||
|
|
for both the Win16 (Windows 3.x) and Win32 (Windows NT) API sets.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In addition to using these macros some code in the examples is
|
||
|
|
conditionally included using statements like:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#ifdef __NT__ /* for Win32 specific code */
|
||
|
|
#ifdef __WINDOWS_386__ /* for 32-bit Windows specific code */
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are some functions that are for the 32-bit windows environment
|
||
|
|
that are macroed away in other environments:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
AllocAlias16 - gets a 16-bit far pointer to some 32-bit memory
|
||
|
|
(just returns the pointer in 16-bit code)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FreeAlias16 - releases the 16-bit far pointer obtained by AllocAlias16
|
||
|
|
(does nothing in 16-bit code)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
GetProc16 - gets a special 16-bit thunk that points at 32-bit callbacks
|
||
|
|
(just returns the callback address in 16-bit code)
|
