= Standard MAC driver project for OS/2 & eCS =

This is the development home for the standard MAC driver project for eCS and OS/2. Each driver shares common code to interface with eCS and OS/2, and has a separate hardware modules that interfaces with the common code.  The idea is to minimize the coding required to develop a new driver.  A developer only has to build the hardware specific portion of the driver. An added benefit is that any fixes, changes, or enhancements to the common portion of the drivers is automatically compiled into all of the drivers.

This project produces the following drivers:

 * nveth
 * e1000e

= Getting the sources =

In addition to [/browser browsing] the sources here, you can check out the
[https://svn.ecomstation.nl/repos/multimac sources]
with your favorite subversion client.

Keep in mind that, unlike  cvs, tags and branches are ordinary directories in subversion. With the typical subversion respository layout, it is rather easy to checkout more than you probably intend to. To pull just the trunk version, use something like

{{{
mkdir multimac
cd multimac
svn checkout https://svn.ecomstation.nl/repos/multimac/trunk .
}}}

To update your workspace with the current repository content, use

{{{
cd multimac
svn update
}}}

If you would like commit access to the repository, please request it via the mailing lists.

 * Open Watcom
 * The DDK

To build the driver:
 * edit the Makefile in the root directory and change the DDK and WATCOM variables so they point to the locations of the DDK and the Watcom compiler on your system.
 * type wmake
