How to Share Code between Platforms
To develop in parallel on UNIX and NT
- Use UNIX style view (the default) on UNIX
- Use msdos style view on NT (Advanced option)
The VOB must then be msdos enabled. To do that, run the msdostext_mode command.
BOTH of the above need to be done. Doing one without the other does nothing.
Running in Interop (msdos) mode tells the VOB database to create TWO cleartext containers: one for the UNIX view and different on for the NT view. The source containers are NOT affected.
