ux-mmap - Unix compatibility functions                               2006-02-25


DESCRIPTION

    libHX provides a Linux-style mmap() function for Win32.


SYNOPSIS

    #include <libHX.h>

    void *mmap(void *START, size_t LENGTH, int PROT, int FLAGS, int FD,
        off_t OFFSET);


mmap()

    See the Linux manual page mmap(2) for details. Many flags described in
    mmap(2) do not work. What does work: PROT_NONE, PROT_READ, PROT_WRITE,
    PROT_EXEC (only WinPX SP2 or WinServer2003 SP1 or up), MAP_SHARED and
    MAP_PRIVATE. MAP_SHARED is the default if no MAP_PRIVATE is given.
