Ave readers,

I have the following probelms working with djgpp and cwsdpmi:

If i compile and run the following program

   #include<iostream.h>
   #include<dpmi.h>

   int main()
   {
      unsigned long           size;
      char                    *pointer;

      size = _go32_dpmi_remaining_physical_memory();
      cout << "\n" << (unsigned long) size;

      pointer = (char *) malloc(1000000);
      if(pointer == NULL) cout << "ERROR";

      size = _go32_dpmi_remaining_physical_memory();
      cout << "\n" << (unsigned long) size;
   }

i get the following output:

   i:\prg\mwkdb\t2

   63602688
   63594496

1.) As you see it only consumes 8192 bytes of memmory but i requested
1000000.
 WHY WHY WHY ????
Furthermore as i tried out djgpp a few month ago i had to load cwsdpmi
in
oder to compile or run programs. But now programs run and compile
without
loading cwsdpmi !!

Thank you in advance.

cu,
 Marcus
