    Using Shared Heaps

    I am trying to use CreteFileMapping and MapViewOfFile in AIX These function use 2 pre-defined fields FILE_MAP_WRITE and PAGE_READWRITE. The problem I am having is that the compiler can not find the definiation. What include file are they suppose to be in and what is it supposed to be defined as. I have grep thru /usr/include and /usr/vac/ directorys for their defininations
    It is not in umalloc.h

    Try umalloc.h.

    Define your own sizes. See this example. Oh, and you spelled 'CreateFileMapping' wrong. Be sure not to do that in your actual code.

    Hm, I misread their #define. Anyway, there's an example of them using it.

    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

    I need the values for FILE_MAP_WRITE and PAGE_READWRITE
    ie x'FFFFFFF1'
    Since They are not defined in umalloc.h I have no idea what the function is looking for

    Well, google's third hit seems to indicate that FILE_MAP_WRITE is defined as 2, in winbase.h.
