- I'm trying to port a medium-sized project from Borland C++ to MS C++ 7.0a
- (I just got an upgrade from MS today). It fails to build in the link
- stage, complaining of data segments over 64K.
-
- Well, I know I've got initialized data segments over 64K, and it's all
- string constants (okay, this is a text adventure game). But that's why
- I'm not using fast compile, and why I'm choosing the huge model.
-
- This works in Borland. Anybody know if it can be made to work in MS?
- I don't really want to change the design philosophy, because I'm trying
- to keep this thing working on multiple platforms (It already works on
- UNIX and Mac).
-
- I'm running under PWB, if it matters. I'm also running under QEMM, with
- QDPMI, and DesqView, rather than Windoze, but I would be astonished if
- any of that made a difference.
