- Has anyone used BCCx32 from NSD (Network-Systems Design, Oshkosh WI)?
-
- This is a program which modifies the output of Borland C++ to make huge
- pointers very fast. It forces a 386 or greater CPU into real mode and
- turns huge pointers into true linear addresses - a 'flat model' pointer.
- This allows your program to access as much memory as available in the
- machine, with none of the contortions normally needed (swapping chunks
- of memory, etc.).
-
- I am considering purchasing this product, so any experiences or opinions
- would be appreciated.
-
- Thanks,
