Subject: Clipper 5.3 program under dosemu
Date: Mon, 03 Nov 2003 09:31:50 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3FA61276.1080106@kite.hu> (raw)
Hi!
I have to set up a dosemu environment for a clipper 5.3 program, using the
DOS/16M dos extender. The problem is that the program can't use the memory
above 1 MB. According to the docs, the program SHOULD use DPMI, and the logs
show that it is actually doing some DPMI calls (GetFreeMem, Alloc, etc), but
it is not using as much memory as DPMI offers.
Here are my memory settings:
$_xms = (16384) # in Kbyte
$_ems = (off) # in Kbyte (couldn't make the program use it)
$_ems_frame = (0xE000)
$_dpmi = (16384) # in Kbyte
$_dosmem = (640) # in Kbyte, <= 640
I have a simple Clipper program that displays the memory available to the
program (251k gzippped), I can email to anyone willing to debug a little.
Other programs using DPMI (like Turbo Pascal 7.0's tpx.exe) are seeing and
using correctly all DPMI memory available.
My system configuration:
Celeron 366, 128 MB RAM, ~100 MB swap
Debian 3.0r1
dosemu 1.1.5, compiled from sources
compiletime-settings:
config {
experimental off
sbemu off

cpuemu off

fdtarball none
}
Clipper version 5.3b Intl. (338)
DOS/16M version 6.01
Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Zsolt
