- I tried a couple of years ago to do the same thing with Borland C++ when
- it first came out (I think it was "v3.00"). As I recall, I was not the only
- person trying it. Some people had limited success and I had none.
-
- I realized that there was no reason why I *had* to run the application
- under DOS or Windows (but I *had* to use a PC) so I tried it under Linux and
- it could not have worked less flawlessly. It was just as well, since, in
- the end, my application consumed 24 megabytes of swapspace (it was a very
- simple program: I used the MAXIMUM_BIPARTITE_MATCH module to process
- a very large amount of data)... I wonder how well DOS/Windows would haved
- handled it . . .
-
- I don't recall having any trouble compiling/running any of the demo programs
- ...even the graphical stuff worked very nicely under the X windows that
- came with the Linux installation.

-
- I'm a little surprised that there are no responses posted in reply now that
- a couple of weeks have elapsed. I guess that means that it's not possible.
- I've never tried it under os2, but I think I will with emx-gcc (which is why
- I'm poking around this news group).
-
- Good Luck.
