"The design purpose of WinSail is for industrial use. In the application of the power system, this kernel has completed 95% of its work. In the application of CNC machine tools, this kernel has completed 75% of its work. In the application of smart instruments, this kernel has completed 80% of its work." Then, Brother Guo, which specific contents are included in the above-mentioned application kernels? Can you introduce them in detail!!! Thank you!!!!!

1: For the interface, it supports VGA forms with resolutions of 320*200*256, 640*480*16, 800*600*256 colors, and LCD screen forms with a resolution of 320*240*2 colors for the SED1335 controller, and supports various Windows interface factors. The dialog box can be drawn well in VC++, and can be converted into WinSail's source code or script files through the conversion program provided by this system. It is not difficult to develop the interface.
2: The "oscilloscope" control provided is powerful, especially supporting "multiple vertical coordinates", which can meet the display needs of most dynamic "waveforms".
3: The power system is weak current controlling strong current, and there are many output components, such as relays, solenoid valves, indicator lights, motors, etc. The "object-oriented I/O control" interface function of WinSail is powerful. The hardware can adopt "I/O cards, PLCs, network cards, COM communication ports", but the software interface is the same, and the difference is in the different configuration files. For example:
ExecuteRelay("K1, K2, ~K3, 300, SSR1, 20", pRegister, TRUE, TRUE);
means:
Close mechanical relays K1 and K2, open mechanical relay K3, wait for 300ms, then close solid-state relay SSR1, wait for 20ms.

4: The mathematical simulation package provided by the system can simulate "sine waves, square waves, shock waves, triangular waves", etc. The superposition of these waveforms can realize the actual situation of most external signals, which is a rare tool for simulating the real world.
5: The discrete signal FIR filtering function provided by WinSail - "low-pass filter, high-pass filter, band-pass filter, band-stop filter" coefficient generation and filtering program is a means for all industries such as "electrical, electronic, automation, instrumentation" to eliminate external interference. If your product does not have this function yet, then your product is just a student experiment product.
6: The TCP/IP protocol supported by WinSail has a programming interface basically the same as "Win9x". If your product supports network card communication, you can imagine how much added value it can bring to you!!!
7: WinSail is just a secondary development platform, and other things will not be described more here.

So fierce! I'm really happy that DOS still has such strong vitality now, and there are still so many friends to improve it together.

Will the source code be made public? It's a very rare software package. Can it be used freely? Is there any copyright issue?

Admire the interface development under DOS. It costs money. How to promote it?

WinSail is really great! Thanks a lot,楼主 big shot! May I ask what's the difference between this WinSail and DJGPP? Is this used to develop 16-bit DOS programs or 32-bit DOS programs? Thanks

DJGPP: Just an IDE development tool, and the relationship with BC31/BC45 is like that between VC++ and Dephi.
WinSail: A programming library and application development tool, and the relationship with BC31 and BC45 is similar to the relationship between DLL, OCX and VC++.

Currently, WinSail has developed to version V2.0. It includes the following major categories of functions:

(1) Windows - like GUI.

(2) Display modes include VESA mode, TFT mode, LCD mode.

(3) Multitasking.

(4) TCP/IP protocol stack, based on Packet Driver driver, all network data packets are in extended memory, not occupying conventional memory.

(5) Extended memory supports "physical extended memory", "disk - emulated extended memory", "expanded memory card".

(6) Support for "text registry access" function.

(7) Extended mathematical function library.

(8) Support for other common functions.

Prompt: error with graphics.h, there is a problem with gdi, may I ask boss, what should I do?

Visual C++ does not support graphics.h, that is, Visual C++ only supports programs running under Windows.

WinSail V2.0 is for developing pure DOS programs. You should install Borland C++ 3.1 as the development tool, or install Borland C++ 4.5 as the development tool.

I have developed a software called "WINSail" by myself. It is a completely free set of software. The complete "library files", "header files", "instructions", and "source code" can be found at "www.FirstSail ...

What kind of free is it? GNU? Public Domain?

I can't find the download place...

Often need to perform dynamic waveform display on the data collected from the AD conversion card, using the following algorithm:

(1) Assume that the waveform display color is WHITE, the background color is BLACK, and the pane is DARKGRAY color.
(2) Define a boolean variable BOOL bDisplay = FALSE
(3) If bDisplay = TRUE, XOR the saved sampling data with WHITE color for drawing, and set bDisplay = FALSE
(4) Sample data from the data sampling card
(5) XOR the sampling data with WHITE color for drawing, and set bDisplay = TRUE
(6) Save the sampling data
(7) Repeat steps (3) ~ (6)

The following are the disadvantages of using the above algorithm.
(1) When the number of waveform data points is larger than the drawing width, compression display is required.
(2) After compression, multiple points are XOR-drawn at the same position, resulting in the waveform not being clear enough
(3) After compression, multiple points are XOR-drawn at the same position, resulting in the loss of high-frequency components of the waveform.

Currently, the above algorithm is solved as follows:
(1) Assume that the waveform display color is WHITE, the background color is BLACK, and the pane is DARKGRAY color.
(2) Define a boolean variable BOOL bDisplay = FALSE
(3) If bDisplay = TRUE, directly draw the saved sampling data with BLACK color, and redraw the pane with DARKGRAY color, and set bDisplay = FALSE
(4) Sample data
(5) Directly draw the sampling data with WHITE color, and set bDisplay = TRUE
(6) Save the sampling data
(7) Repeat steps (3) ~ (6)

Fellow DOS enthusiasts, is there a better solution???

Thank you! I downloaded it, it's really amazing.

But, are there any restrictions on application, for example, is the free version only limited to personal use, and do you need to pay for a license for commercial use...

Because the program can be developed on Windows and run on WinSail, it's really time-saving and effort-saving...

Remarks

(1) Other simulated resolutions * 256Color. You need to modify the values of the global variables nAfxScreenWidth and nAfxScreenHeight, which can only be reduced, not increased.
(2) The value of Device is configured in the "Device" key value of the [Display] section in the Config.Sys file, which is of integer type!
(3) The value of Mode is configured in the "Mode" key value of the [Display] section in the Config.Sys file, which is of integer type!
(4) The monochrome simulation is configured in the "Mono" key value of the [Display] section in the Config.Sys file, which is of boolean type!
(5) For users using the PCM-3386 embedded motherboard, the "Pcm3386" key value in the [Display] section must be set to "TRUE"!
(6) For users using the PCM-3486 embedded motherboard, the "Pcm3486" key value in the [Display] section must be set to "TRUE"!

The configuration file is "Config.Sys", as follows:
［Display］
Device = 9; device number
Mode = 2 ; mode number
Mono = True ; monochrome/color display control
Pcm3386 = False ; PCM-3386 embedded motherboard user
Pcm3486 = False ; PCM-3486 embedded motherboard user

Can't download, and it says "negotiable price". I don't plan to buy, so I think the楼主 is a scammer! Just here to advertise!
