Oh, wonderful – exactly six weeks since I plunked down $1000 for the Metaware / Pharlap system, and two weeks past my 30-day money-back guarantee. 🙂 Are there more details on the 32-bit DOS extender that's part of the package? Like whose is it, and what is it compatible with?

I was under the impression that this forum is for the MAC Symantec C++. Shouldn't this (and the other similar messages) be in the Zortech C++ areas? Isn't that where the people who would be interested in this look for this? <Happiness is avoiding MicroSoft, which is easy on a MAC!>

John, Symantec C++ 6.0 is compatible with the following DOS 386 extenders: Pharlap's 386 extender The same DosX extender that ships with Zortech Everything needed to compile, link and distribute programs with the DosX extender is included with the package. I don't know what the "official" word on which versions of Pharlap we work with but I did extensive work with the latest version of Pharlap (5.1). -Richard Sadowsky Symantec Corporation
