DISCUSSION
The XLIB.DLL file which resides on a UNIX host is the X-layer which sits on top of the underlying operating system which is UNIX in this case. A UNIX x-client uses the XLIB.DLL to talk to the UNIX operating system kernel. The XLIB.DLL file which we provide with Exceed XDK allows you to make calls to the Windows NT operating system kernel. Basically, our XLIB.DLL file allows you to build a X-client which is a Windows NT ´binary´ as opposed to a UN IX ´binary´. The other main difference is in the Windows API interface which sits between the O/S kernel and the XLIB.DLL file.
Basically, our XLIB.DLL file interfaces with the Windows API as opposed to directly interfacing with the Windows NT kernel. The way the X libraries work is that you have a X-client using XLIB.DLL which makes a request to a X-display server which then makes a call to the O/S kernel. The O/S then replies back to the X-display server which in turn replies to the X-client.
