[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Does Microsoft's OS/2 C compiler access all memory?

tr@wind.bellcore.com (tom reingold) (03/01/88)

I hear that Microsoft has a C compiler that runs under OS/2 and is
for compiling code to run under OS/2.  Please tell me if this is
not true.  I would assume that there is no 640K barrier in this
compiler, since this barrier is supposed to have been lifted in
OS/2.  Is this assumption fair, or is it true?

Background:  I don't yet have either OS/2 or a PS/2.  I plan to
get both sometime soon.  I don't relish the thought of either but
the software we develop is desired to run on them.

Thank you for your help, as always.
