- The main thing is that you need a line in your .DEF file that says:
-
- IMPORTS _DebugOutput=KERNEL._DebugOutput
-
- Also, this is a Windows v3.1 routine, so it won't work if you have
- Windows 3.0. I'm not sure why this import is needed. It is a documented
- function of the Windows 3.1 API, so you really shouldn't need to do this,
- but you do. Also, the docs don't seem to reference to DBF_APPLICATION.
- Perhaps they simply expect everyone to use TRACE().
