Hi, If FDPP can assist in getting 16-bit DOS programs to run under PDOS/386, that would be of interest. I updated the readme: https://github.com/dosemu2/fdpp/blob/master/README.md to state more explicitly that it runs DOS programs, and also added the description of pdos/386. Hope I described it properly.

From the short discussion there, I've found out that pdos/386 can run gcc (djgpp? or what kind of gcc?) and It requires a custom-built version of GCC and binutils designed to produce a.out format executables. OK, I understand. That sounds good. However fdpp requires clang+nasm+objdump. Any possibility of a clang port? In short, fdpp is "the thing" that adds a full DOS compatibility...

I am still hoping one day the gcc port will be possible, but for now gcc devs are not interested in fdpp. But I thought you do use v86 internally for a bios calls? So at least you have a way to call to v86? If so - this is all that is needed. I don’t use v86, I use actual real mode. ie I drop from protected mode to real mode in order to execute the BIOS...

Hi pdos developers. Just found out about your new release on bttr forum. From the short discussion there, I've found out that pdos/386 can run gcc (djgpp? or what kind of gcc?) and can't run any classic DOS program without recompiling them. Let me introduce the fdpp project to you: https://github.com/dosemu2/fdpp In short, fdpp is "the thing" that adds a full DOS compatibility to any 32 or 64bit kernel, in an exchange of the v86 services. I.e. the host kernel needs to provide the call-backs to fdpp...

Thanks for the pointer, but currently it is of no help for the following reasons: The lib is built w/o -fPIC, therefore the one can't use it in a build of a shared or pic object. Please use -fPIC during compile, and optionally consider providing a shared lib instead of static. Can live with static, but -fPIC is a mandatory. instruments do not seem to be packaged. I understand there may be the licensing problems, but I suppose maybe some work-arounds are possible. Like creating the download script,...
