Well, here's another fine mess, I've gotten myself into. I posted a couple of weeks ago regarding a problem with running out of memory whilst compiling some of the windows example code. The resounding answer to the problem was to use BCX, which would use my extended memory and not run out of memory during the compile. Thanks for all the answers, but this has led to a further problem. First, I'll describe my system and its setup: Zenith 248 AT clone 80 Meg Hard drive 20 Meg Hard drive 640K conventional memory 1 Meg extended memory The autoexec.bat has been stripped down to contain only a path to BC++ and DOS, and the config.sys has only Files and Buffers = 20, and Device=himem.sys. When I run BCX, I open the project file, and then try to make the .exe file (this is the todolist example, by the way), the compiler bombs out, and gives the message: >>> 0GP at 1C67 0AFA EC 0000 >>> Unexpected interrupt/exception 0D at 1C67:0AFA. >>> Error: Cannot remove TKERNEL.EXE >>> C> I called Borland, and they said to try getting rid of the himem.sys device driver, since BC++ does its own memory management. I tried this, and the machine simply hangs instead of bombing out. Any ideas? Please? Pretty please? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | Brad Skrbec | "For it is the doom of men that they forget." | | Motorola Cellular | -- Merlin | | Arlington Heights, IL | UUCP: uunet!motcid!skrbec | | | Internet: motcid!skrbec@uunet.uu.net | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If I restart bcx without a project file, and compile the two files separately, one at a time, they work fine. I then load the project file and build the program. I get a message about incompatible functions between files (both named functions are inline). The program seems to execute properly. I suspect that it is hopeless to develop a windows program without bcx. Too bad it won't run under windows! I have not (yet) begun a windows program. Tom Roberts att!ihlpl!tjrob TJROB@IHLPL.ATT.COM
