Environment
EXTRA! X-treme Options Pack
Situation
Resolution
The following EXTRA! 16-bit APIs are affected:
- Attachmate HLLAPI (16-bit), also known as ATMHLLAPI (16-bit)
- EAL (16-bit)
- EHLLAPI (16-bit)
- WinHLLAPI (16-bit)
- DOS HLLAPI Pass-through (using redir95.vxd or hllinit.sys redirector)
You may continue to use the 16-bit APIs at your own risk. Attachmate will no longer provide any patches or updates for 16-bit APIs. Attachmate no longer tests 16-bit APIs on newer Windows operating systems or with new Windows service packs and updates. Furthermore, 16-bit API options are not available in next-generation host connectivity terminal emulation products, such as Reflection for IBM 2007 or Reflection 2008.
Available Alternatives
You are encouraged to migrate your applications to use 32-bit APIs instead of 16-bit APIs. For information on 32-bit APIs in EXTRA! X-treme, see KB 7021278.
