Edit a new file and type:
int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow) { MessageBox (NULL, "Hello Win32", "First App", MB_OK); return 0; }
Save this file as 'test.c'.
Just compile you programs with
gcc -Zwin32 test.c
and you will get the Win32 program test.exe.
Note: The sample directories contains a RSXIDE project file.
RSXNT contain the following samples in the subdirectories of \rsxnt\sample. All examples can be compiled with the tool make.exe. The makefiles are written for GNU make. For NT09C users there is the newest version (3.75) in the directory \RSXNT\BINNT09C.
Console:
This samples cannot run under Win32s.
ANSI | uses ANSI/VT100 control strings |
ARGVENV | bound program that also uses Win32 functions |
EXCPT | exception demo |
FINDFIRST | prints directory list, uses new findfirst, support of LFN under DOS |
FORK | program that uses fork() |
PIPE | test pipes, executes read and write process |
SOCKET | unix sockets, win32 sockets |
THREAD | multithread program that uses beginthread() |
VIDEO | demo of the new video library |
GUI:
All samples can run under WinNT, Win95 and Win32s.
COMMCTL | Common control example |
CPLUS | C++ code example |
CTL3D | Dialog example |
DIBVWR | DIB Viewer (by Alfons Hoogervorst) |
ENUMW | Callbacks example |
SOL | Game |
SPEED | Speed test |
WINDOWED | Text mode program in a window |
WINEDIT | Rich text format editor |
DLL:
All samples can run under WinNT, Win95 and Win32s.
DLLNRT | DLL that does not use RSXNT.DLL functions (no file I/O) |
DLLCRT | DLL that uses the CRT DLL (enables all C functions) |
DLLSO | DLL (stand-alone), can be used without RSXNT.DLL |
The makefiles are written to use GNU make. If you want to use Borland or MS make you must modify the makefile to include the rsxntmak.msc makefile.
Example:
! include <..\..\rsxntmak.msc>
In most cases you can build the standard executable or you can link the C runtime DLL to the application:
a) make
b) make crt=1 multi=1 debug=1
Possible switches:
crt=1 | uses C runtime DLL |
sys=1 | use System Library |
multi=1 | build multithread application |
dual=1 | build dual-mode application (Win32 and DOS) |
debug=1 | include debugging symbols |
