Running and Runtimes

General

Programs built with DJGPP or Open Watcom required special runtime files to work properly. Turbo C does not.

Please see loader.bat for general idea on how to launch.

DJGPP

DJGPP requires two things setup.

• Settings DJGPP envoriment. ie: set DJGPP=C:\dge\runtimes\djgpp\djgpp.env
• Having process CWSDPMI in path. ie: set PATH=%PATH%;C:\dge\runtimes\djgpp\bin
  (note, some systems you have to use PATH command; ie PATH %PATH%;C:\dge\runtimes\djgpp\bin

NOTE: Both of these are distributed in the 'runtimes' directory.

Open Watcom / DOS32A

Open Watcom / DOS32A requires EITHER

• linking with wlink.exe (I haven't gotten this to work, you need a windows system I think, doesn't work in Linux).
• Running the executable under dos32a.exe. ie C:\dge\runtimes\dos32a\dos32a.exe C:\dge\myprocess.exe.
  The later is easier to get working.

NOTE: dos32a.exe is distributed in the 'runtimes' directory.

Turbo C

Turbo C doesn't require special runtimes, the .exe should run on all platforms as is.
