I am trying to port a large unix application to OS/2. Unfortunately, the C386 I have (from the 2.0 SDK) runs out of heap space in pass 2. Is there a workaround to convince C386 to allocate a larger heap? I assume the problem is that C386 is still a 286 application. -- James R.

In OS/2 running IBM C/2 (or Microsoft C 5.1+, I believe) one could use the version of the compiler which itself was compiled using the large model (meaning a larger heap space) by renaming C1.EXE to C1S.EXE and C1L.EXE to C1.EXE . I don't know, however, if this can be done in OS/2 2.0 with C386. Cheers, Q
