Hi,
I spent some time thinking about memory organization in Windows CE.
MS claims that each process have 32 MB slot in virtual memory.
However when process is running it moved (remapped?) to slot 0.

Question is why process have to be remmaped to slot 0?
Or if you prefer, why process have to have allocated slot N. (N!=0)

How loaded fix DIR32 links? to slot 0 or slot N?

Regards.

It is done this way because DLL are only mapped once for all processes and
they are mapped based on Slot 0.
