- Display
- They can Display System Information.
-
- Exit
- They can Exit the Sysinfo Program.
-
- Sysinfo is a Presentation Manager Utility that will display the current system
- operating parameters using the Notebook Control Style. Sysinfo will display the
- following:
-
- System
- The user can see parameters that are concerned with the overall opertion
- of the system.
-
- Memory
- The user can see how the system memory is allocated.
-
- Timers
- The user can see the current status of the system's Timers are.

- Dynamic priority variation flag (0 means absolute priority, 1 means
- dynamic priority).
-
- 7.QSV_MAX_WAIT
- Maximum wait in seconds.
-
- 8.QSV_MIN_SLICE
- Minimum time slice in milliseconds.
-
- 9.QSV_MAX_SLICE
- Maximum time slice in milliseconds.
-
- 10.QSV_PAGE_SIZE
- Memory page size in bytes. This value is 4096 for the 80386 processor.
-
- 11.QSV_VERSION_MAJOR
- Major version number.
-
- 12.QSV_VERSION_MINOR
- Minor version number.
-
- 13.QSV_VERSION_REVISION
- Revision letter.
-

- when the system is started.
-
- 15.QSV_TIME_LOW
- Low-order 32 bits of the time in seconds since January 1, 1970 at 0-00-00.
-
- 16.QSV_TIME_HIGH
- High-order 32 bits of the time in seconds since January 1, 1970 at
- 0-00-00.
-
- 17.QSV_TOTPHYSMEM
- Total number of pages of physical memory in the system. One page is 4KB.
-
- 18.QSV_TOTRESMEM
- Total number of pages of resident memory in the system.
-
- 19.QSV_TOTAVAILMEM
- Maximum number of pages of memory that can be allocated by all processes
- in the system. This number is advisory and is not guaranteed, since
- system conditions change constantly.
-
- 20.QSV_MAXPRMEM
- Maximum number of bytes of memory that this process can allocate in its
- private arena. This number is advisory and is not guaranteed, since
- system conditions change constantly.
-
- 21.QSV_MAXSHMEM
- Maximum number of bytes of memory that a process can allocate in the
- shared arena. This number is advisory and is not guaranteed, since system
- conditions change constantly.
-
- 22.QSV_TIMER_INTERVAL
- Timer interval in tenths of a millisecond.
-
- 23.QSV_MAX_COMP_LENGTH
- Maximum length, in bytes, of one component in a path name.
-
- An application can specify file objects managed by an installable file system
- that supports long file names. Because some installable file systems support
- longer names than others, the application should issue DosQuerySysInfo upon
- initialization.
-
- DosQuerySysInfo returns the maximum path length (QSV_MAX_PATH_LENGTH)
- supported by the installed file system. The path length includes the drive
- specifier (d), the leading backslash ( \ ), and the trailing null character.
- The value returned by DosQuerySysInfo can be used to allocate buffers for
- path names returned by other functions, for example, DosFindFirst and
- DosFindNext.
