Metakit sample code - Demo</h2><br clear=left>
<p>This example is more a "proof of concept" than anything else... </p>
<p><b>What it does</b>: Demo creates a simple view on disk, makes a few
changes to the data as well as the structure, and then saves these too.
</p>
<p><b>What it illustrates</b>: This sample program shows how to set up
a simple program which uses Metakit. The source code of this
application can be compiled for 32-bit Windows (as console application)
as well as for 16-bit small-model DOS targets. When run more than once, i.e. with an existing
datafile, this program will cause some changes to the data which illustrate
the effects of "on-the-fly data restrcuturing".
Demo has little practical use, other than to show you
how to get started with Metakit. </p>
<p><b>How to use it</b>: When you launch the 16-bit DOS version called DEMO16.EXE,
it creates a datafile called "myfile.dat", saves some
data to it, and then reopens it and displays the line:
<pre> The country of Paco Pena is: Spain </pre>
By following the code, you can see where this came from. You can use the Metakit
dump utility (see below) to examine the contents of the data file.
<p><b>Known problems</b>: None.</p>
<p><b>Files in EXAMPLES\DEMO</b>: </p>
<p>DEMO.CPP - Demo main program
<br>DEMO.MAK, DEMO.MDP - MSVC 4.2 project makefiles for Win32
<br>DEMO16.MAK - MSVC 1.52 project makefile
