Requirements - 386/486/P5 computer with 2 Mb RAM, VGA display & card - DOS 5.0/6.xx + Microsoft Windows 3.x or Windows'95 - Transputer board (wide range supported) - "C" development system for writing Windows Applications using Windows Libraries. Supported: - Logical Systems PC Transputer Workbench 94.1/94.2 (WBBIN-PC) - INMOS ANSI C Toolset (IMSD7214) - i860 Toolset 2.0 (TSS860C-PC) 2. Compatibility Windows Server Package is fully compatible with mentioned development systems loadable files, protocols and host commands (ANSI.SYS-driver command suport, access to real mode physical addresses via DPMI etc.). 3. Facilities 3.1. Windows Server - easy-to-use menu-driven interface; - smart tool bar & status bar; - background execution (accurate message dispatching) with three priority levels; - controls up to 3 boards; - tuning polling timeouts (useful for fast computers); - "Protocol" mode with output to screen and/or file - all messages from/to host are visible to user; - peeking transputer memory; - execution control (always can terminate & suspend transputer task); - link interface via DLL library (open architecture). 3.2. Windows Libraries - event-driven architecture like with Microsoft SDK; - fast I/O file operations using Windows API calls w/cashing; - about 200 Windows functions: full API interface; - modal and modeless dialogs; - access to resources (Menus, Dialogs, Bitmaps, Icons and Cursors) created with SDK Paint & Dialog editor or Borland WorkShop); - easy working with bitmaps (load/save, palette management etc.); - printing capabilities; - clipboard manager functions; - safe memory access via DPMI; - memory management functions like GlobalAlloc, GlobalLock etc. to access HOST virtual memory from transputers; - user protocol extensions via DLL libraries; - DDE protocol support (both client and server functions, examples available, full documentation included); - high-speed graphics (buffering some GDI functions). 4. Prices Retail price Univercity price ------------ ---------------- WSP for WBBIN-PC US$ 149.95 US$ 99.95 WSP for IMSD7214 US$ 149.95 US$ 99.95 WSP for TSS860C-PC US$ 199.95 US$ 149.95 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- What is Windows Server Package (working demo) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Working demo of Windows Server Package have some limitations in comparison with the full (commercial) version: - Windows Library available only for INMOS ANSI C Toolset; - 3L afserver protocol not supported; - fast I/O library not included; - clipboard management not supported; - DDE not supported; - access to HOST virtual memory not supported; - only a few transputer motherboards supported; - graphics not buffered; - protocol extensions not available; - modeless dialogs not available; - not tested under Windows'95. However, Windows Library still contains about 100 API functions enough for not very complex programs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Great thanks again.
