Flash Graphics was the graphics package for DOSX. Unfortunately, the authors of it have chosen to no longer make it available. There's nothing I can do about it.

Can you use VESA Bios support?
If so, then a lot problem can be solved.

I don't know if i can use the vase bios support ... my last experiences with DOS was nearly 10 years ago .... Is there everywhere in the Net a simple 2D Graphics Lib which works fine wth digital mars ?

the only functionalities are :
- draw ellipse,
- set pixel,
- draw rectangle and so on.

The whole project was once written in WatCom 10 and Watcom 11 C++ ... that
means there a very lot function calls from the watcom graphcs lib ....
i want to warp the new call so that the project source have not to be
change.

Is it possible that the shipped OpenGL Lib runs under DOS ?


Thanks Bjoern

The VESA specifications http://www.vesa.org/standards_free.html has examples to show you how to make calls to get the bank switching routine and hence allow you to just write to the 0xa000 segment.  That will be the primitives for set pixel.  The rest of the routines line DDA lines and ellipse etc can be written using sources like: http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0201848406/ref=sib_dp_pt/102-1185376-1210524 #reader-link

Hope that helps
