- The Developer Connection for OS/2
- Welcome Letter Volume 7, April 1995
-
-
- What's New with The Developer Connection for OS/2?
- --------------------------------------------------
- IBM Personal Software Products is pleased to provide you with the
- latest release of The Developer Connection for OS/2 Volume 7. This
- volume includes The Developer Connection for OS/2 CDs and The
- Developer Connection News, along with Volume 3 of The Developer
- Connection for LAN Systems CD.
-
- If you are interested in device driver development, you can now
- upgrade your subscription to receive the IBM Developer Connection
- Device Driver Kit for OS/2 (Developer Connection DDK). The Developer
- Connection DDK provides developers with the tools to develop device
- drivers for personal computer hardware using the 32-bit OS/2 operating
- platform. Subscribers receive complete device driver source code and
- samples, test aids, and updated documentation. For more information,
- call the appropriate order number for your geographic location.
-
- Volume 7 of The Developer Connection for OS/2 CDs
- --------------------------------------------------
- Volume 7 provides you with a complimentary license to Software
- Installer for OS/2 Version 1.2.4. Using Software Installer, you can
- create a graphical interface that provides your users with an easy and
- consistent way to install, update, restore, and delete the workstation
- software that you develop for the OS/2 environment. Other new
- products include: Hyperwise Version 2.0, OpenDoc Framework for C
- Set++, OS/2 C-Kermit, OS/2 Warp Version 3, OnCmd xBase for OS/2,
- Personal Communications AS/400 and 3270 V4.0 for OS/2, Toronto Virtual
- File System, and Validator for OS/2. In addition to the products in
- the catalog, a wide variety of documentation is provided in several
- formats. For a list of the document titles available, refer to the
- file BOOKLIST.ASC in the root directory of the CD. Or, view the list
- using the icon provided in The Developer Connection for OS/2 folder.
-
- Thank you for all your survey feedback. We have tried to implement
- some of your ideas; for example, many of you have asked for more
- information regarding object-oriented programming development. Volume
- 7 contains a book excerpt, "Design Patterns," in HTML format (located
- in the \HTML directory of Disc 2). The book describes the symptoms of
- problems C++ programmers may encounter and provides templates for
- solutions. We have placed a summary of the survey responses and our
- actions in a file called SURV1Q95.RSP so you can get an idea what
- others are suggesting and how we are responding. We'd like to make
- this feedback a more regular feature and hope you will continue to
- participate. Tell us what you think. Complete the survey using the
- icon in The Developer Connection for OS/2 folder or edit SURV2Q95.TXT
- in the \DEVCON directory. Instructions for returning the survey are
- in the file. With your help, we can continue to meet your OS/2
- development needs.
-
- Volume 3 of The Developer Connection for LAN Systems CD
- -------------------------------------------------------
- The LAN Systems family of products provides APIs for a wide range of
- operating system environments that span the entire range of functions
- required for robust, client/server programming support. Hundreds of
- APIs are available for application development, but a given
- application may need only a few. To make it easier to determine the
- APIs that benefit you and your application, the CD provides
- documentation and sample code for each API. The LAN Systems API
- Roadmap outlines IBM's vision for a client/server application
- development environment based on an integrated distributed computing
- platform. As this document evolves with each release of The Developer
- Connection, further details of the application interface strategy for
- each functional category will be provided to assist you with reusing
- code. This includes information on the industry standard APIs
- provided for application portability across hardware platforms, as
- well as object frameworks.
-
- The Developer Connection News
- -----------------------------
- An equally valuable component of The Developer Connection for OS/2
- program is the technical newsletter that accompanies the CDs.
- Articles from past issues can be found on each disc using the
- Developer Connection Browser. Comments and suggestions regarding The
- Developer Connection for OS/2 can be sent to the Editor of the
- newsletter. For details, see page 24 of the newsletter.
-
- The Developer Connection for OS/2 Program Information
- -----------------------------------------------------
- The intended audience for The Developer Connection for OS/2 is the
- professional developer. We assume that you have a CD-ROM drive
- attached to your system with the necessary device drivers that work
- under OS/2 2.0 or higher to support it and, optionally, AIX 4.1 or
- higher. You can use the LAN Systems CD for development under OS/2 and
- AIX. If you do not have OS/2 support for your CD-ROM drive, please
- see the DOS information in The Developer Connection for OS/2 User's
- Guide contained in this package.
-
- Much of the content of The Developer Connection for OS/2 and LAN
- Systems CDs is considered pre-release. The pre-release code on
- these CDs may be modified substantially before general availability.
- IBM does not guarantee that any of the pre-release programs contained
- on any of The Developer Connection for OS/2 and LAN Systems CDs will
- ever be made generally available.
-
- Please read the enclosed License Agreements carefully and fully before
- using any of the programs on the CDs, as the licenses vary for
- individual products. Most of the software is licensed for 120 days or
- until you receive the next volume, whichever comes first. However, the
- licenses for the following toolkits do not expire as long as you adhere
- to the terms and conditions of the license agreement: Multimedia
- Presentation Manager Toolkit/2, Pen for OS/2 Developer's Toolkit 1.0,
- Software Installer for OS/2 Version 1.2.4, the Developer's Toolkit for
- OS/2 2.1, the Developer's Toolkit for OS/2 Warp Version 3, the
- LAN Systems Toolkit, the AIX DCE Toolkit, and the Encina Toolkit.
-
- The licenses for the following products have not been renewed for this
- volume, so remove these products prior to installing Volume 7:
- Anti-Virus for OS/2, DataFlex, Desktop Observatory, GpfRexx, Gpf
- Professional Developer's Toolkit, OS/2 Warp Version 3 with WIN-OS/2
- and BonusPak, Personal Address Book/2 Light, PL/I for OS/2 Toolkit,
- PL/I for OS/2 Professional Edition, PM Debug, SizeIt, SlickEdit,
- SpaceMap Lite for OS/2, Time and Place/2 Clients, Time and Place/2
- Server, The Object Factory, Workplace Companion, and Workstation
- Interactive Test Tool for Presentation Manager. APPC Games and APPC
- Utilities have been updated and can now be found in the APPC Showcase.
-
- READ the README on the CDs for IMPORTANT Developer Connection
- information and last-minute updates (especially for the OS/2 Warp
- Version 3 with WIN-OS/2 uninstall information). For specific product
- information, read the description files and individual product
- READMEs. The Developer Connection for OS/2 CDs contain a collection
- of pre-release programs. While we have tried to make sure they will
- all install properly, we acknowledge that some problems might be
- inherent in individual programs.
-
- Electronic Support
- ------------------
- Electronic support is provided through CompuServe, OS/2 BBS, and
- the Internet. You can get technical support or use the forum to
- exchange messages, ideas, comments, or concerns. The dedicated
