recursing subdirectories - redirector (Developers)

posted by ecm Homepage E-mail, Düsseldorf, Germany, 20.10.2025, 20:33

Addendum: The redirector interface is useful because many common housekeeping tasks on pathnames and handles are relegated to the DOS, and the redirector provides a special interface on int 2Fh function 11h that's used by the DOS. This is partially undone by redirectors like mfs that want to support LFNs because the int 21h function 71h subfunctions do not correspond to any traditional redirector interfaces. (dosemu2 adds a few redirector extensions, but not that many.)
