Porting applications Linux - eCS

2004-05-20 23:52:49 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [www.osnews.com]

IBM developerWorks hosts information *which may be used* by professional developers who are porting Linux software to OS/2.

  • The first article contains reference information about threads, mutexes, and semaphores.
  • The second talks about Memory management, IPC, and file handling.

Linux is "a country of the third world" which imports raw materials and cheap labour power to eCS. So, you can use this information as a reference for undertaking any migration activity. "The tips and caveats should help to simplify your migration design".

Supporting languages in applications

2004-04-29 15:06:48 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [www.os2world.com]

Peter Koller wrote his first article for OS2World.com. This article is aimed at anyone who wishes to program applications that can support more than one language.


DDK2 project

2004-04-25 21:28:11 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [ecomstation.ru, Adrian Gschwend]

I'm glad to announce DDK2, an extension to the DDK sourcecode. Timur Tabi wrote some enhancements every OS/2 device driver developer should use so make sure to get the code now!

DDK2 is an upgrade to IBM's device driver kit (DDK) for OS/2 Warp. DDK2 is a collection of files that replace or augment the files that are part of the current IBM DDK. These new files contain bug fixes or new features that should have been part of the DDK in the first place.

DDK2 is necessary because IBM is slow and reluctant to accept these changes from outsiders. There is no real process in place for DDK submissions, and legal issues make it difficult to incorporate code written by non-IBMers with IBM code.

Every OS/2 device driver programmer should get DDK2.

"Twenty-fifth Anniversary of Rexx" Symposium

2004-03-29 22:25:56 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [VOICENWS, Chip Davis]

The Rexx Language Association is excited to announce that the 2004 International Rexx Symposium will celebrate the Twenty-fifth Anniversary of the Rexx Language in the beautiful Swabian region of Germany during 2 - 6 May, 2004. In recognition of this significant milestone, the fifteenth annual Rexx Symposium has been extended to four days for the first time.

The Symposium is the only technical conference dedicated to the Rexx family of programming languages, drawing speakers and attendees from around the world. It is the best place to learn valuable Rexx programming techniques, keep up with the latest developments in the Rexx community, and confer with your colleagues, many of whom are luminaries in the field. The Program will feature a wide variety of presentations ranging from tutorial introductions, to real-world practical applications, to research papers describing techniques and features you will be using in the future.

The program schedule represents the best of an overwhelming number of quality presentations offered by the best Rexx practitioners in the world. IBM Fellow and Rexx pater Mike Cowlishaw will give the keynote address on "Twenty-five Years of Rexx -- a Personal View". It promises to offer a unique insight into the conception, development, and behind-the-scenes life of the Rexx language.

As usual, the Sunday before the Symposium will feature free tutorials and a welcome reception. The full Symposium registration, including the banquet, gift, and RexxLA membership is $295 before April 19, and $345 afterwards. Daily registration for only the sessions is $50 and $60 respectively. You may register from the Symposium Registration webpage using credit card, check, or PayPal.

The IBM Rexx Development Team has generously offered to host the Symposium at the luxurious IBM Executive Briefing Center at their BЖblingen Research Labs on Tuesday and Wednesday. To ease travel considerations, the first and last days of the Symposium will be held at the Symposium hotel.

An excellent room rate of 87 Euro has been negotiated with the Stuttgart Marriott Hotel Sindelfingen. Please see the Symposium Announcement for booking information.

Come and join us in celebrating the Twenty-fifth Anniversary of the Rexx programming language!


Eclipse status

2004-03-15 11:03:34 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [http://eclipseos2.netlabs.org/]

Eclipse for OS/2 is a transitional project on porting the Eclipse platform, an open extensible Java IDE, to the OS/2 operating system. The project has the "transitional" status because we are planning to join the main stream of the Eclipse development when we complete the greater part of this work and get a functioning OS/2 version.

What's new: Font support is fully implemented. This means that the org.eclipse.swt.graphics.GC class is completely done and all "low level" SWT functionality is now available (i.e., graphic primitives, colors, images and fonts), which is definitely more than 2/3 of the whole work. I guess that's good news.

However, it seems that we will not get through in a month with all the other stuff (widgets). So, the project finish date will be moved again -- we hope not so far.


Status of OpenSibyl

2004-02-26 19:49:24 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [ecomstation.ru]

Yuri Prokushev joins the series of articles related to Sibyl (analogue of Delphi). (The previous article attracted 70 comments from readers and and evoked great interest to this RAD.

Readers may discuss the plan of work on Free Pascal, RAD and SPCC classes library (russian text).


Warp Wishlist Updated

2004-02-23 21:49:21 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [www.os2world.com]

Kris Lake has updated the Warp Wishlist. This is a list of operating system and application enhancements that current eComStation and OS/2 users believe are worth paying for.


Porting applications Linux - eCS

2004-02-19 09:24:18 -- Eugene Gorbunoff [ecomstation.ru, wild ecomsa dog]

IBM developerWorks published information *which may be used* by professional developers who are porting Linux software to OS/2. The first article contains reference information about threads, mutexes, and semaphores. The next article in this series will cover the mapping of system calls related to memory management, file handling, and device driver interfaces.

Linux is "a country of the third world" which imports raw materials and cheap labour power to eCS. So, you can use this information as a reference for undertaking any migration activity. "The tips and caveats should help to simplify your migration design".
