UVTI installation
Which files you will need to install will depend on whether you are going to use
both Glink and the Affinity emulator on your system, and also whether you are
going to be programming your own applications directly to the UVTI specifi-
cations (as opposed to using pre-packaged products such as Affinity Visual).
We will here assume that you will only be using Glink; details of how to install a
dual-function setup are supplied both in the online help and in the descriptions
of the files themselves supplied above.
1. Copy UVTI32.DLL and GLUVTI.INI to your Windows directory.
Modify the \WINDOWS\GLUVTI.INI file according to the instructions pro-
vided in the file itself. The general parameters there should be straightforward
enough, but you will also need to provide a list of [Connections] that can be
addressed from UVTI applications. Each connection name will correspond with
a Glink configuration file that's set up with the appropriate setup for the host in
question.
The GLUVTI.INI configuration file
GLUVTI.INI is used by the Glink UVTI32.DLL to determine runtime
parameters and to obtain the exact configuration to be used by Glink for each
'Connection Name' used by the UVTI application. Each host is listed with its
configuration file in the [Connections] section and any additional
parameters that may be required are then specified in separate host-specific
sections. The file must reside in your \WINDOWS directory. An example of a
GLUVTI.INI file follows here:
[Configuration]
GlinkDir=c:\glwin
GlinkParameters=/R72
DebugFile='GLUVTI.DB'
Debugging=OFF
DebugAppend=OFF
DebugSysTime=OFF
PureDDE=FALSE
DisableHide=FALSE
