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documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

VxDcall V86MMGR_Get_VM_Flat_Sel
 
The V86MMGR_Get_VM_Flat_Sel service returns a selector that points to the
base of the specified virtual machine's V86 address space. This is useful
for 32-bit applications since this selector can be used to point to any
address in the virtual machine's V86 address space. The selector is writable
and has a limit of 11000h bytes so that the high memory area is also
addressable.
 
The selector returned is in the specified virtual machine's LDT. Therefore,
the selector is only valid to use when the virtual machine is running (is
the current virtual machine).
 
Parameter  Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
EBX        Specifies a virtual machine handle (any virtual machine handle is
           valid).
 
Return Value
 
The EAX register contains a selector with the base at the high linear
address of V86 memory (the high word is zero).
