Message-ID: <155@rlgvax.UUCP> Date: Fri, 28-Sep-84 13:51:19 EDT Article-I.D.: rlgvax.155 Posted: Fri Sep 28 13:51:19 1984 Date-Received: Sun, 30-Sep-84 03:43:23 EDT Distribution: net Organization: CCI Office Systems Group, Reston, VA Lines: 16 To date there are no "C" compilers that support large model coding on the IBM AT (Intel 286 based). IS THIS CORRECT? I spoke with the author if the Lattice "C" compiler and he told me of some design problems with the 286 that makes building large model programs very difficult. I think there was some- thing about a register changing function from the 8086 line. I'd like to see some information on the net concerning large model addressing - its problems, implementation details, etc. Thanks. David P.
