- I am in the process of getting a large chunk of C++ code from a
- UNIX workstation (SGI) to compile on the Mac. Although I have
- not gotten everything to compile, I am getting relatively close.
- My problem is that I want to avoid messing with code/data
- segmentation issues as much as possible.
-
- What is the best way to do this? -model far? -br? -bigseg? How
- much do any of these affect code-size/performance (not too
- important)? Any bugs/incompatibilities to watch for?
-
- If it matters any, the final link will be based on a half dozen
- libraries. Some of these have been placed in named segments, but
- most haven't and I'd rather not bother if I don't have to.
-
- Thanks a lot (this newsgroup is a BIG help, thanks to all of you).
