hello together,
i have the following questions: i've been working with borland pascal under DOS for quite a long time, and now i changed to gpc under Solaris 8 on a SUN Blade 1000. i've to admit that i don't know much of UNIX itself. when i use the functions Max/MemAvail, the program seems to halt (it doesn't crash, just waits until i destroy via ctrl-c). i suppose that MaxAvail/MemAvail does only make sense under DOS - i don't know if there is anything like a heap in UNIX. are there any similiar functions (which work) in gpc/UNIX ? how can i determine the space which is free for a single pointer variable ? what is the heap-system (if there is one) in UNIX ? with GetMem, can i address the whole memory (which is 1 GByte) ?
a lot of questions, i know, but i hope somebody can help me.
thank you, and best wishes, michael !
