Pouech Eric DMI AEI CAEN <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes:_lcreat16 (and al.) is in fact a 16 bit function, implemented in krnl386. so, normally it wouldn't be accessible from 32 bit DLLs (we can do it in some cases, but the least we do, the better it is).
please stop using krnl386.exe export when possible (especially for dos emulation which is going out of kernel32/krnl386.exe combo). So, if CreateFile can do, please use it (ditto for any other krnl386 file related functions) this is needed for proper DLL separation
So, if the same behavior (as _lcreat16) can be obtained with other 32 bit APIs (like _lcreat or CreateFile), that'd be better. Beware, that _lcreat16 is different from _lcreat (search path order for example is not the same).
