When I do a dpmi_get_free_memory_info and if I malloc maximum_locked_page_allocation_in_pages is there any dos_memory free or not ? What's the better way : to make a malloc or to use dpmi_allocate Fred -- _________________________________________________________ | | | Frederic CAZENAVE | | _/\_ /^= McGill Radar | | \_/ \// Box 198, MacDonald College | | | /-\ | Ste Anne de Bellevue | | || || Quebec, Canada H9X 3V9 | | Tel (514) 398 7733 fax (514) 398 7755 | | mailto:Frederic DOT Cazenave AT hmg DOT inpg DOT fr | | http://www.mpl.orstom.fr/hydrologie/catch/ | |__________________________________________________________|
