 |
|
Does anyone have an old (it couldn't be new could it) copy of the DBOS run-time? We have been contacted by a few users of a FTN77/x86 compiled application and they need a copy of DBOS.
DBOS had been retired when Silverfrost took over FTN95 and so we never had buildable sources. |

I have located an old zipfile dating back to 1998 containing among others
dbos.exe and dbos.lib. Is that what you are asking for? |

| It is certainly a good start. Can you email them to ftn95@silverfrost.com ? |

I found an old CD-ROM (original from Salford), labelled "Salford FTN95 Win32, Version 2.50". It contains also a folder "PRODUCTS\DOS" with a setup.exe, but I cannot run this under my 64-bit Windows OS and so I don't know whether DBOS is included there. If you like, I can send the CD to you.

I have Ver 1.06 FTN95 disks (1997), both Win32 (3 disks) and Windows (4 disks), plus the Salford DBOS run-time master disk. ( 8 x 3.5" disks in all).
I thought I also had Ver 1.01, but can't find the disks. I have a draw full of later versions also, if you might require a revised DBOS from a later date.
Are any of these disks of use in this form ?
John
Ps: I haven't tried to read them as yet ! |

| I think the DBOS run-time master disk is the one we need. Could you try and read that one and send it please? |

Robert,
I have emailed the zip file.
02/09/2011 09:55 AM 892,327 Salford_DBOS_Ver3.55.zip
Hopefully it will not be filtered.
If it is, then I can send it via sendthisfile.com
John

PS: I received an email "Delivery Failure" message. It appears that the email was redirected from ftn95@silverfrost.com and could not be delivered to the @gmail account. You can send me an email or pm to clarify what is happening. It may be better to send via sendthisfile.com if you did not receive the email. |

Hi John
We did get your zip thank you. The failure is because our ISP copies everything to another (gmail) account |
