I am very new to c++. I hanve an application running in OS2. If I have the original source code, can I compile this code using a windows compiler and have the program run on the windows platform?

TIA,
Craig

Depends on which version of C++ the original code was written. There may exist OS2 specific code.

What happened when you tried the winders compiler? You did try the winders compiler?

No, I have not tried the compiler yet. I wanted to get some info first. Someone told me that I couldn't do this because it has dfferent API. What does this mean?

API = Application Program Interface

It is a way for a programmer to use the built in operating system services to perform a function.
