 A '''legacy application''' is one for which an executable is available, but not the source code. Therefore it cannot use the BOINC API and runtime system. However, such applications can be run using BOINC. Here's an example:
- * Compile the program 'worker' from the [http://boinc.berkeley.edu/example.php boinc_samples] tree, producing (say) 'worker_5.10_windows_intelx86.exe'. This is the legacy app. If reads from stdin and writes to stdout; it also opens and reads a file 'in', and opens and writes a file 'out'. It takes one command-line argument: the number of CPU seconds to use.
- * Compile the program 'wrapper' from the [http://boinc.berkeley.edu/example.php boinc_samples] tree, producing (say) 'wrapper_5.10_windows_intelx86.exe'. This program executes your legacy application, and acts as a proxy for it (to report CPU time etc.).
- * [http://boinc.berkeley.edu/app.php Create an application] named 'worker', and a corresponding directory 'project/apps/worker'. In this directory, create a directory 'wrapper_5.10_windows_intelx86.exe'. Put the files 'wrapper_5.10_windows_intelx86.exe', and 'worker_5.10_windows_intelx86.exe' there.
