Edit a new file and type:
#include <windows.h>
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.
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 |
