Remarks:
-------
- This has been compiled by Borland C++ 3.0 and MSC 7.0, not by Borland
C++ 3.1 (It may very well work, but I do not have that version). Borland
C++ 2.0 lacks a library function "_fullpath" used by MSWFILE.C.
- If you want to compile this code but do not have a Windows 3.1 SDK (or
Borland C++ 3.1, or Windows NT), you need to set the #define WIN30SDK to
1 in MSWIN.H. This will remove a few features (notably drag'n drop) but
makes the sources compatible with the 3.0 WINDOWS.H.
- This code has to be compiled in large model. Since, even in that
model, Borland C++ and MSC 7.0 can generate a single Data Segment, it is
still possible to run multiple instances of MEWIN. The other compilers
may generate multiple data segments in large model, thus creating
single-instance-only programs. Depending on the users' taste, this may
be a non-issue due to MDI availability..
- For Windows 3.x, the Borland C++ 3.0 and MSC 7.0 libraries provide a
segment suballocator for the malloc, realloc and free functions. Other
compilers often supply a simple segment allocator for those functions in
large model. Since the maximum number of segments allocated at any time
under Windows cannot exceed 8K (the number of entries in the selector
table), use of a suballocation mechanism is a must. The MSWMEM.C module
contains just that. A previous BETA of this program was compiled with BC
2.0 and therefore used this module, so it has been tested. However, I
have encountered very rare occurences of UAEs that I believe are caused
by MSWMEM.C. The MSWIN.H module contains flags SUBALLOC and MEMTRACE
which should be set to 1 if you want to use malloc/realloc/free from
MSWMEM.C. MEMTRACE is not absolutely necessary but adds a trace of the
last 256 MSWMEM events. I had installed that to catch the UAE in the act
with the help of DrFrank (a UAE dump taker/analyzer)... The thing has
never reared its ugly head since then!
