{ Turbo Overlays } { Copyright (c) 1985, 1989 by Borland International, Inc. } {$F+,O+} program OvrDemo; (* This is a simple example of how to use the new overlay system. For more complete documentation, refer to the overlay chapter in the Turbo Pascal manual. Here's a quick checklist: 1. Turn "far calls" on {$F+} (to be safe, in all overlaid units and the main program). 2. Turn "Overlays allowed" on {$O+} 3. Use Overlay unit in main program. 4. Issue separate {$O} directives for each overlaid unit. 5. Make sure to call OvrInit and pass the name of the .OVR file. 6. Test OvrResult after OvrInit calls (optional). 7. Compile to disk (cannot run in memory). Here the overlay error returns for quick reference: const ovrOk = 0; { Success } ovrError = -1; { Overlay manager error } ovrNotFound = -2; { Overlay file not found } ovrNoMemory = -3; { Not enough memory for overlay buffer } ovrIOError = -4; { Overlay file I/O error } ovrNoEMSDriver = -5; { EMS driver not installed } ovrNoEMSMemory = -6; { Not enough EMS memory } *) uses Overlay, Crt, OvrDemo1, OvrDemo2; {$O OvrDemo1} { overlay 'em } {$O OvrDemo2} begin TextAttr := White; ClrScr; OvrInit('OVRDEMO.OVR'); { init overlay system, reserve heap space } if OvrResult <> 0 then begin Writeln('Overlay error: ', OvrResult); Halt(1); end; repeat Write1; Write2; until KeyPressed; end.
