Re: [Freedos-user] final on dos extenders;

Hi Kurt,

 concerning the page fault error and the tip from the djgpp faq, it
 was right on the money! I was using a function which had unused
 arguments,nevertheless specified; so I had declared three dummy pointers,
 *and forgot to initialize them*;
 Dummy me. Initialized all three to the same dummy int(name), and end of
 'page fault'

Please explain - which function did you use and why did it
access the data pointed to by your uninitialized pointers
even though you say those arguments are unused? If it is a
library function, other apps might run into similar issues
and it would be good to improve things in the library, too.

Eric

Japheth and all,
this is belated, as I just moved, and still don't have internet at the
house; concerning the page fault error and the tip from the djgpp faq, it
was right on the money! I was using a function which had unused
arguments,nevertheless specified; so I had declared three dummy pointers,
*and forgot to initialize them*;
Dummy me. Initialized all three to the same dummy int(name), and end of
'page fault' Thank you. --kurt--wb2...@gmail.com.
