C Programming in the OS 2 2.1 Environment
V. Mitra Gopaul · John Wiley & Sons, Inc. eBooks · 1994
From the Publisher: This important OS/2 programmer's reference combines OS/2 development tools that are scattered through many different IBM manuals into one easy-to-use source. It covers all levels of C and C++ application development in the OS/2 environment using the IBM C Set++ Compiler. Numerous illustrations and examples simplify complex aspects of software development and maintenance. Detailed chapters explain how to work with the latest tools of Presentation Manager (PM), IBM's WorkFrame/2, the debugger, and development tools such as the OS/2 Toolkit. Designed to meet the programmer's daily needs, this guide shows how to define input files and use dynamic-link libraries; increase programming productivity with menus and dialog boxes; use new PM tools such as the resource compiler, dialog editor, font editor, and icon editor; and add information help to programs with IPF. This complete user's guide to C and C++ language covers data types, operators, and statements. A reference to the entire ANSI C standard function library provides the syntax and operation of the full range of functions. It clarifies all aspects of the cycle of compiling, linking, and running programs; the Information Processing Utility and its required files, environment variables, and tags; and object-oriented programming and the System Object Model (SOM). Developing C/C++ Software in the OS/2 Environment is a reference and self-teaching handbook for OS/2 programmers and developers and a text for programming students at all levels.
