Message-ID: Date: 13 Feb 91 05:09:57 GMT Sender: spierk@cs.rpi.edu Distribution: na Organization: Rensselaer Computer Science, Troy NY Lines: 17 Nntp-Posting-Host: cs.rpi.edu I would like to develop some applications under OS/2 so I would like to know what tools are needed and which are the easiest to work with. Some questions are: 1) How is the Zortech C++ for OS/2 development system? Does it support threads, HPFS, etc? 2) What are the OS/2 PM Toolkit and OS/2 PM Softset? 3) To develop applications do you need both of the above? 4) Is the OS/2 PM Toolkit == Windows 3.0 SDK??? Any general info/guidlines for developing OS/2 apps would be greatly appreciated. Personal experiences in developing apps (whether they were successful or not) will be useful to me. Thanks, Kevin L.
