This file contains a Windows application and a PM application. It
demonstrates the use of DDE between the two. In addition, it shows how
to use a private format, to pass chunks of binary data, unfiltered,
between PM and Win-OS/2. To install the programs, unzip this file
with the "-d" option. You should have two subdirectories: PM and
Windows.
To run the sample, start both applications. From the menu, choose the
DDE options. Initiate the conversation from the Windows side. You'll
then be able to pass data back and forth between the two, and get
a feel for response time, and other environmental considerations.
I left several unused static text controls on the Windows dialog. You
can use them, if you choose, to display additional info. The makefile
and all the necessary pieces to rebuild the application are included.
I used MSC 7.0, and the 3.10 toolkit for Windows.
On the PM side, I used the IBM C Set/2 compiler, and the Developer's
Toolkit version 2.1.
Please feel free to send me a mesage if you run accross a problem while
you're installing or using the programs. They ARE NOT meant to be
bullet-proof, or anything more than a development tool. Please keep
that in mind.
I hope you're able to get some use out of them.
Sincerely,
Larry Morley
