                      DLL Runtime Library Patch #1
              (C) Copyright Microsoft Corporation, 1993


This patch corrects problems with the Microsoft (R) Visual C++ (TM) 
runtime libraries for small and medium model DLLs. 

INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLYING THE PATCH:
======================================

  - Change to your MSVC 1.00 library directory.  For instance:

      C:
      CD \MSVC\LIB

  - Copy the patch files to the MSVC library directory.  The patch files are:

    Standard Edition:
      PATCH.EXE
      STDLIB.RTP

    Professional Edition:
      PATCH.EXE
      PROLIB.RTP

  - Make backup copies of the files that will be updated by the patch:

      SDLLCEW.LIB
      MDLLCEW.LIB
      SDLLCAW.LIB  (Professional edition only)
      MDLLCAW.LIB  (Professional edition only)

  - Run the patch program, by typing:

    Standard edition:
      PATCH STDLIB

    Professional edition:
      PATCH PROLIB

The patch program indicates its actions as it runs.  See the section
in this file entitled "If you have trouble:" if warnings appear
during this step.  When the patch has been successfully completed, you 
may delete the patch files.

BUGS FIXED BY THIS PATCH:
===========================

The following C run-time functions give unpredictable results in small- 
and medium-model Windows DLL libraries as distributed with Visual C++ 1.0:

	_chsize
	clock
	ctime
	fclose
	_fcloseall
	freopen
	_fstat
	_ftime
	_fullpath
	_getcwd
	_getdcwd
	_getw
	localtime
	mktime
	_rmtmp
	_searchenv
	_stat
	time
	tmpfile
	_utime
	wcstombs


If you have trouble:
======================

If you have problems running this patch: 

  - Make sure you copied the appropriate patch files.

  - Make sure you have the correct version of the files to be updated.  
    This patch will only patch files from MSVC v1.00.

  - If you receive the warning message "Warning wpt0015: Old File does not 
    exist" from the patch utility, note the following:

    1) Ensure that the current directory contains the files to be updated.

    2) The default installation for the Professional Edition does not include
       alternate math runtime libraries (SDLLCAW.LIB / MDLLCAW.LIB).  If you
       did not install these libraries, ignore this message.

  - If you receive the warning message "Warning wpt0036: Invalid copy of 
    file found. No update can be done" from the patch utility, check to make
    sure you're using the correct patch files for your edition of Visual C++:

    Professional Edition: PROLIB.RTP
    Standard Edition:     STDLIB.RTP
