Re: [Freedos-devel] 32RTM Bug Found, no good fix
Alain wrote: Hi Michael, Thanks very much for the debugging... IMHO this is a case of needed bug for bug compatibility :( I say needed because there are _A_LOT_ of Borland programs around. It would not be needed if it happened only in an obscure rarely used program. I can even argue that FreeDOS is Beta, that is because things may change, this is as good an example as anyone can get.

Re: [Freedos-devel] best free C++ compiler
Koder wrote: Hi, After a few years of being idle in the DOS-scene, I am looking to writing some new apps. I am using Borland's TC 2.01 because that has been released for free. Here are some questions for you dev's: 1) If I were to write a FreeDOS-targetted application on FreeDOS, which C++ compiler would be the most interesting? I have a copy of TC++ 3.0 lying around somewhere. Is that one freely available yet? No, but 1.01 is, which is somewhere between the two. 2) Is anyone using lex/yacc in any project? Did you use it for the processing of .bat files? If not, then why not? Will lex/yacc work with TC 2.01? Perhaps, though you might want to look through the remains of GNUish on the FreeDOS mirrors for a 16-bit yacc or bison... -uso. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by BEA Weblogic Workshop FREE Java Enterprise J2EE developer tools!

[Freedos-devel] Latest results of limited Win3.10 testing under FreeDOS (kernel 2034)
My limited testing of Windows 3.10 under FreeDOS ODIN 0.7 has had rather impressive results. Last time I tested Windows 3 on FreeDOS, version 3.1 wouldn't load completely at all, and 3.0 was highly crashprone even with programs like WINFILE. Now, Windows 3.10 Setup completed flawlessly, and with WIN /2, it was possible to start Windows from FreeDOS. I don't currently have any 286-mode compatible apps to test, so I jsut played around with the Windows apps. All ran well. A shell to the command prompt from Windows, however, crashed with an Invalid Opcode while trying to run command.com... Exiting from Windows was fine though. I was pleasantly surprised that it worked as well as it did. (And w00t to QEMU) Note I was not using the latest kernel, and I was using IBM's himem, not FreeDOS's. -uso. --- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings Training.
