Cross Platform Support
The emulator programming interfaces are provided across a variety of workstation platforms. On some platforms 16- and 32-bit interfaces may be provided. Note that support for emulator APIs on a particular platform requires a licensed copy of IBM Personal Communications for that platform.
The following table shows the emulator API support on various platforms:
| Supported PCOM Emulator APIs | PCOM DOS | PCOM OS/2® | PCOM Windows® |
|---|---|---|---|
| IBM® Standard EHLLAPI (16-bit) | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| IBM® Standard EHLLAPI (32-bit) | Yes | ||
| IBM® Standard EHLLAPI (DOS-mode)* | Yes | Yes | |
| IBM® Enhanced EHLLAPI (DOS-mode)* | Yes | Yes | |
| EHLLAPI (WinOS/2-mode)** | Yes | ||
| WinHLLAPI (16-bit) | Yes | ||
| WinHLLAPI (32-bit) | Yes | ||
| PCSAPI (16-bit) | Yes | ||
| PCSAPI (32-bit) | Yes | Yes | |
| DDE (16-bit) | Yes | Yes | |
| DDE (32-bit) | Yes | Yes | |
| DDE (WinOS/2-mode)** | Yes | ||
| Host Access Class Library | Yes | ||
| REXX | Yes | Yes |
Note:
- * DOS-mode is support for DOS applications in a DOS-compatibility mode of the operating system; for example the DOS emulation window of OS/2®.
- ** WinOS2-mode is support for 16-bit Windows® applications in a Win-OS2 session on OS/2® using the Personal Communications for OS/2® product.
- PCOM in this table refers to Personal Communications; PCOM Windows® refers to Personal Communications, Version 15.0.
