| far or near
i was under the notion that far pointers has faded into oblivion with
the introduction of FLAT memory from windows 9x onwards.but while going through some header files winsock.h and winsock2.h i found it litter with far pointers. gethostbyname() for example returns a far pointer to a structure. I also read in msdn that far and near pointers are obselete. can any body comment on it |
