Defining a Single Application VDM (SAVDM)

For a SAVDM, the Windows application name is entered into the Path and Filename field on the Program page of the Settings notebook. The Workplace Shell then determines the application type. Upon detecting that the application is a Windows application, the Program Type in the Session page of the notebook will be set to Windows Full Screen. When a user interactively creates a program object for a Windows application and the Workplace Shell determines it is a real mode application, Windows Full Screen will be marked as the default and the application will be started as a SAVDM.

Each SAVDM has its own icon on the Workplace Shell desktop, for the application within the SAVDM. This icon is the normal Windows icon for this application. The icon title text will be the text specified in the Title field in the General page of the Settings notebook.
