SUMMARY
The Windows for Workgroups (WFW) SDK contains additional files that can be used with the Windows version 3.1 SDK for WFW development. The WFW SDK includes the following components:


 * WFW SDK API Help file
 * Header (.H) files
 * Library (.LIB) files
 * Sample code
 * WFW debug binaries
 * WFW WDEB386.EXE files (WFW kernel mode debugger)

The WFW SDK is available on the Microsoft Developer's Network (MSDN) Level 2 CD set, beginning with the April 1994 edition.

MORE INFORMATION
The WFW SDK provides headers, libraries, and help for APIs in the following areas (which are new with WFW):


 * Networking:


 * WNet (connecting, browsing, sharing)
 * MNet (multiple-network driver interface)
 * Mailslots
 * Named pipes (asynchronous reads and writes)
 * NetDDE (networked DDE)
 * File Manager extensions
 * Common controls

The following are the WFW SDK samples and what they do:


 * MSLOT demonstrates the Mailslot APIs.
 * NPCLNT16 demonstrates the asynchronous named pipe APIs.
 * WFWAPI (in the NETAPI directory) demonstrates various WNet and MNet APIs.
 * DDESHARE (in the NETDDE directory) demonstrates the NDde APIs. This is the source code to the DDESHARE utility included with the WFW Resource Kit.
