Important Notice
The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Format: /D[buffersize]
 
     The /D option tells CodeView to read portions of itself from
     disk overlays to reserve more room for the program being
     debugged. You can optionally specify the size of the overlay
     buffer when using the /D option. If you do not specify a buffer
     size, CodeView uses a 64K buffer. You may want to specify a
     buffer size of up to 128K (/D128) to optimize performance if you
     are not debugging a large program.
 
     NOTE: If you want to debug a large application, but cannot use
           expanded or extended memory, specify a buffer size of 16K
           to maximize CodeView's capacity.
