im trying (in djgpp) to have a pointer to the timer that is 18.2 hz, my source code looks fine, but the address where the timer is supposed to be always stays the same. can you find my problem? #include <stdio.h> #include <dos.h> #include <sys/nearptr.h> #include <conio.h> unsigned short *my_clock = (unsigned short *)0x046C; unsigned short cur_time = 0; int main(void) { if (__djgpp_nearptr_enable() == 0) { printf("Could not get access to first 640K of memory.\n"); return -1; } my_clock += __djgpp_conventional_base; for(long i=0; i<1000; i++) { cur_time = *my_clock; printf("%d : %d\n", i, cur_time); } __djgpp_nearptr_disable(); printf("done.\n"); } Edited by - jeremiah on 7/5/00 10:34:04 PM
