Readme.txt file for ENFIN Distributed Presentation Option Module
version 4.00.0  
March 21, 1994

This file contains information relevant to the ENFIN DPO Module.
Please refer to the information listed in this file, as well as the
documentation, before calling your local Customer Support Hotline.


====================================================================
NEW FEATURE
====================================================================

*  Generic EHLLAPI
   ENFIN includes a new, generic EHLLAPI DLL that eliminates the need
   for specific emulator support.  For more information on this new
   support, see the EHLLAPI Support manual.   


====================================================================
WINDOWS SPECIFIC INFORMATION
====================================================================

*  Windows EHLLAPI Rumba Support
   In ENFIN version 4.00.0 for Windows, two loadable applications for 
   EHLLAPI support are supplied:  EHLLAPI Generic (mentioned above) 
   and EHLLAPI Rumba.  The EHLLAPI Rumba support provides all the 
   functionality of the Generic EHLLAPI support, with the addition 
   of one method, runProfileName:mode:.  See the ENFIN online method 
   reference for more information about this method.  We strongly 
   recommend that the Generic EHLLAPI loadable application be used 
   with	the Rumba (tm) emulator if use of the runProfileName:mode:
   method is not required.


====================================================================
UPGRADE SPECIFIC INFORMATION
====================================================================

*  New Code required for Generic EHLLAPI Support
   Converting code from ENFIN 2.9 EHLLAPI support to the new Generic 
   EHLLAPI support requires the addition of only one line of code.
   You must first determine the name of your emulator vendor's 
   supplied HLLAPI DLL, then pass that name to the EHLLAPI class 
   method initializeFor:.  For example, for an emulator that supplies 
   a HLLAPI DLL with the name HLLAPI.DLL, the following line of code 
   would need to be added to your application:

		EHLLAPI intializeFor: 'hllapi'.

   Note that the parameter passed to the initializeFor: method needs
   to be an object of class String and that the '.dll' extension should 
   not be included.  See the EHLLAPI Support manual for more information.
