The msdos386 platform
|
||
|
=====================
|
||
|
|
||
|
msdos386 is an i386-based BSP that produces DPMI DOS executables. It should
|
||
|
have the same functionality as msdos86 (as the libc is all the same code), but
|
||
|
has been much less well tested.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The code runs in flat 32-bit mode, so normal 32-bit pointers work with no
|
||
|
worries about segmentation. It requires a DPMI host to run; it was tested with
|
||
|
CWSDPMI. It will _not_ automatically load the host --- you need to manually
|
||
|
install the DPMI hsot first.
|
||
|
|
||
|
IEEE floating point is available, but requires an FPU.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Example command line
|
||
|
====================
|
||
|
|
||
|
ack -mmsdos386 -O -o msdos386.exe examples/paranoia.c
