I understand that malloc can get GT 65535 when in 32bit compile. My question first addressed the availability of GlobalAlloc, and what recomended function to use if GlobalAlloc is not usable. The PharLap manuals tend to indicate that the Win32 API is available for GlobalAlloc and GlobalFree. I wanted to know whether the PharLap support for these calls is "operable" in the Autodesk 3DS IPAS implementation arena. So "Can I use GlobalAlloc and GlobalFree", or must I use standard DOS functions malloc/free? If both are available for IPAS, which is recommended or is it DON'T CARE?
