Because these sample programs were originally written in IBM® C/2 for OS/2, you must modify all of the OS/2-specific invocations so that they run on the particular platform you are supporting. If you are compiling on OS/2, the sample programs will probably compile with little or no modifications.

In addition, you will need to make sure that the necessary APPC data structures that the program accesses are available on your system. See the APPC programming documentation for the platform you are writing this application on for further details.

When linking the program, you will probably need to link the appropriate APPC run-time libraries with the sample programs. See the APPC programming documentation for the platform you are writing this application on for further details.
