src\shared has code which is shared by the various XWorkplace classes. The code in this directory has been separated from the actual class code because it might be interesting for other developers too. This has the XWorkplace "Kernel" (kernel.c) which handles Desktop startup and thread synchronization, common.c which deals with global settings, NLS, and such, notebook.c which has useful code for managing notebook settings pages, and more. All this code goes into XFLDR.DLL. Also, this holds the DEF files to link XFLDR.DLL together as well as the resources which go into XFLDR.DLL (and are thus independent of NLS).
