2GB address space and FSUIPC.dll

[bojote]

Hi Pete,

not a problem, JUST a question:

most of the FSX SP2 .exe and .dlls were compiled with the large address aware flag. However, FSX modules (like FSUIPC) don't have this flag set. I said its not a problem, because I don't have any, I was just wondering if there is any reason for this.

Thanks,

That's a PROCESS property, not a DLL one. DLLs run inside a process. The EXE owns it.

Very clear explanation Pete, thanks. I guess my confusion comes from the fact that you CAN set the flag when building a DLL and the FSX DLL's have all the large address aware flag.

Thanks for clarifying.

Hmm. Don't know why. I don't even know how to set it, but I will if I can find it! ;-)
