Brett GlassI am attempting to write a communications package that installs itself (sets up interrupt vectors, buffers, etc.), invokes the application program that uses it, and cleans up when the application terminates. I have been through the Microsoft documentation, but cannot fathom the arcane references to "releasing" memory for use by the called task. I also need to find a reliable way of passing the (actual) addresses of the communications routines to the application, so they can be called from there. (I was considering using interrupts, but became concerned that the code might not be portable). Does anyone on the net have experience with this sort of problem? If so, please reply by mail and I will organize and post the results. --Brett Glass -------
