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documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

─────Memory-Model Options (/A)──────────────────────────────────────────────
 
     The /A option specifies the program's memory model.
 
     Option     Model
 
     /AL        Large memory model (default)
 
     /AM        Medium memory model
 
     /AH        Huge memory model
 
     /Aw        Windows DLL: assume SS!=DS; do not load DGROUP on entry
 
     The floating-point and memory-model options determine the
     standard library that FL places in the object files. The linker
     searches this library by default.
