is there a standard way to allocate dynamically an array bigger than 32k on a machine with 16bit ints? i think malloc calls brk, which takes an int, so it cant bump a chunk bigger than 32k. what i am really interested in is being able to allocate arrays arbitrarily big. (a solution for allocating 42k arrays would be interesting to me, but i would really like a significantly less limited way to get memory) gwoho liu.
