Huhu,
NO, DON`T TRY TO UNDERSTAND OR EVEN GET IN CONTACT WITH SEGMENT CONFLICTS.
Ever heard about a 32-bit flat memory model ?
There You have no problem with memory models, near, far or even
huge pointer. You can malloc as much memory as you want.
Try to get OS/2, gcc (the GNU C Compiler) for OS/2 and
IBM Toolkit and you would be VERY happy.
Lately I converted a program that runs in compact model
to flat model and I could delete very much stuff about
pointers and segmentation verification.
And it runs MUCH faster...
SO GO BUY OS/2 !
Greetings, :)ochen
