- Ive just been told by my boss that the program Ive written to run under
- DOS to control some hardware ( nothing complicated, just controlling a
- few transducers and monitering a few sensors) will have to be implemented
- under windows 3.11. I'm a relative newcomer and only started to learn C++
- for this project in the summer.
- So the question is, can I simply create a type of interface that will
- display and allow interaction with my existing program but through winodows
- front end or does it mean the total restructuring of the program.
- Also I've written the original prog under Boralnd C++ v3 and will now only
- be able to use ( I have no choice in the matter apparently) a different
- compilier (topspeed C/C++), will this mean a new set of commands and LIBS?
-
- Can you see this being done in a period of 1-1.5 months.
- Do you know of any good books or TXT files etc that can help me familiarise
- with the technique of windows programming both for BORLAND and this other
- compiler?
-
- Comments to any of these questions are gratefully recived.
- Thanks.
- Eric..
- P.S. Replies possible by email prefered thanks.
