Hi, I am trying to run a point of sale app with the following structure: i) 16 bit ii) written in Borland C 5 iii)uses DDE iv) The app is broken into some 4 or 5 EXE and DLL files that communicate with the windows POST MESSAGE function. Two apps communicate through DDE.
Does anyone have experience with applications written with Borland C in wine?
It seems that 16 bit Apps written in Borland C are not working as in win98.
The thing is I have tried about 30 apps. Everything written in Visual C (16 and 32 bits) works. Almost all apps written in Borland 32 bits, including OWL and BWCC apps work. This is a quite impressive showing for wine.
16 bit Apps written in Borland C seem to perform poorly.
Running the apps with --debugmsg warn+all
shows consistent problems with
GDI: use of invalid pointers HEAP: adressing attempts of invalid addresses
Furthermore, it seems that the apps are not correctly sharing the processor. For the program to run it is necessary to click in all the windows and therefore allocate processor time by giving focus.
Does anyone have experience with Borland C 16 bit apps.
Is your experience consistent with this report?
I certainly would appreciate any pointers.
Thanks, Miguel Feitosa
p.S : Eric -> I have changed the Apps to not use DDE. I am going to do a couple more days of testing. Then I will roll back the app to the original state and generate some traces for DDE.
