- MS-C compiler note 2
- 9/24/85 by Tom Thompson
-
- If you want to use the C runtime (SLIBC.LIB), but do not want to use the
- normal runtime startup routine, then define the public number "_acrtused"
- somewhere. Remember to prefix an extra underscore if done in ASM language.
- Give the constant the value 1. All C obj modules have this as an extern
- to force loading CRT0.OBJ from the library. Of course, this means don't
- use most "higher level" library functions, especially memory allocate.
- The ones you invariably need to use are shift subroutines, etc, that the
- compiler generates calls to on primitive C operations.
