help , is there a way to fix "'far' is an obsolite keyword"...
Author
Hi,
I need help with MS Visual c++ 6. I was wondering if there is way to fix the error " 'far' is an obsolite keyword. ". I have downloaded loads of vga and svga libraries and they all have the keyword 'far' in them and I want to use them. If you can tell me how to fix this, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thx.

Looks like you have picked up some 16 bit code. Any address is FAR by default in Win32. You will need a 16 bit compiler.

Ok great. But the problem is ive been looking for compilers and havent found any. If you could please make sugestions that would be great.
thx.
thx.
If you really want to write 16 bit code (and I would strongly recommend against it), one options is Borland Turbo C 2.01.
#ifndef FAR
#define FAR
#endif
All depends on whether the code has hacky pointer manipulation...
