I am using the medium memory model for my windows applications, but am finding
that I am running out of data space - is there any problem with using the
large memory model with windows? (I am using Borland C++).
Try Compact. Oh, you have too much application code?
Too bad :-)
I called Microsoft about this, and they said basically
"We do not support it, it won't work under Win32, you'll
burn in hell, it'll be slow as a dog (isn't it already? :-)"
It works, though. Just re-compile your code the next
time around. Sure is nice having all pointers as far
pointers.
