Title: far pointer
Post by: ozzy_85 on April 29, 2006, 11:54:49 AM
i want to use far pointers in 'c'...

only problem is, i have a 32 bit compiler and it seems that code containing far pointers has to be compiled with a 16 bit compiler...

does anybody know why it has to be so???

and also can anybody tell me where i can find a bcc (not bcc32) executable??

thankx in advance

You can (legally) download Turbo C 2.01, and other antique Borland software, here:
