Building a QuickWin Program

Building a DOS program as a QuickWin program is a quick way to create a Windows-style program without knowing about the basics of Windows programming.

·To build and run a project as a QuickWin program:

1.Use the Open command in the Project menu to open or create a project.

2.From the Options menu choose Project.

3.Select the QuickWin EXE Program Type button. The default compiler and linker options change to reflect the program type.

4.Choose OK.

5.Choose Build from the Project menu. The project is automatically saved.

If no errors are reported, you can run the program. To do so, choose Go from the Run menu.

Every QuickWin program needs a module-definition file. This file defines the name, segments, memory requirements, and exported functions of the application. If you do no create a module-definition file for your program, a default version will be created when you build it.
