Product Support 
The Workbench makes reference to a file DOSCALLS.LIB which is supplied
as part of OS/2 version 1.x to resolve references to OS/2 functions. This
file may not be present in some OS/2 version 2.x, in particular Warp, in
which case one of the files DOSCALLS.LIB or DOSCALL1.LIB
should allow references to be resolved correctly. However, it must be
emphasised that neither of these files is the DOSCALLS.LIB
supplied by IBM; they just allow the linking process to function
correctly.
Because the name DOSCALLS.LIB is built into the Workbench, the
file which serves the purpose must have the same name. Either copy the
file called DOSCALLS.LIB from this disk into your workbench
directory, or copy the file DOSCALL1.LIB renaming it as DOSCALLS.LIB.
Check by compiling, linking and running a small program such as PRIME.
It is possible that either of the supplied files will function correctly.
These files are available as a zip file (DOSCALLS.ZIP,
?? KB
).
Please note: While this should also work for Prospero Pascal 5.2 for
OS/2, as we have yet to receive any reports of Pascal 5.2 users needing
it, it has not been tested.
