X-Hacker.org- dBsee 4.6 - The Library - Norton Guide http://www.X-Hacker.org [<<Previous Entry] [^^Up^^] [Next Entry>>] [Menu] [About The Guide]

   Linkers managing overlays will have two distinct areas in which the
   program modules and libraries modules will be put. This will depend on
   their use in the final application. The areas are:

     . Root. The object modules referenced in this area are
       permanently kept in memory and loaded when the application is started.

     . Area. The procedures listed in this area are loaded in
       memory only when they are actually needed and swapped out when not
       used. In this way, memory space is optimised, but the execution speed
       can be influenced.

   dBsee, for its own operations, has the following libraries:

     . dBsee4R

     . dBsee4O

     . dBsee4RE (ExoSpace and CauseWay)

     . dBsee4RB (BLinker 3.0)

   The first library is loaded in the ROOT area since it contains
   procedures and functions that are called frequently or that, due to the
   nature of the functions, cannot be overlayed; the second is loaded in the
   OVERLAY AREA and contains functions that are called less frequently.
   The last two libraries are specific for protected mode operation, and are
   used in the place of the first library.

   The Move button allows to modify the position of a program from one
   area to another assigning it a different area.

   The movement of the entities from one area to another is valid only for
   the overlay linker.

   Proceed as follows:

     . Access the Projects environment and press the
       Subprojects and Link buttons.

     . Position the cursor in correspondence to the entity that
       needs to be moved.

     . Press the Move button.

     . Using the arrow keys, position the cursor in the new
       position that the entity is to assume.

     . Press the Confirm movement button.

     . Press the Esc key to return to the main level of the
       Sub-projects environment.
