Summary : Willows Twin Libraries - cross-platform implementation of the Windows API\'s
|
Description :
Willows Twin Libraries are a cross platform implementation of the Windows API\'s. It is available to support both win 3.x 16bit interface as well as the win32 32bit interface.
As far as this software is concerned, we are a cross between source level products such as Mainsoft and Bristol, and the binary software efforts such as Wabi, Insignia Solutions and wine.
Twin has three notable features: 1) Runs on all major Unix platforms, not just intel. 2) Twin is not just a Unix solution, Twin supports several operating systems, and several different graphics systems. 3) Supports intel code execution even on risc platforms, through cpu emulation, allowing print drivers, and third party dll\'s to run.
The Willows Twin Libraries come in two parts, the first the platform independent Windows compatible libraries, and the second the platform dependent interface layer. The libraries are available in either the traditional archive library format as well as a dynamically loadable shared libraries.
