- Is it possible to run PORTTOOL.EXE under WIN32s ?
-
- No. PORRTTOOL uses threads to perform backgound ports. As threads are not
- supported in Win32s, PORTTOOL won't run. You must use NT.
-
- Where could I find a list of WIN32s APIS ?
-
- According to docs I have seen, all Windows NT API are present in the Win32s
- DLLs. When you call a function that cannot be implemented in DOS (i.e NT
- specific), it will generate a runtime error stating that a function cannot
- be found. I have not verified this.
