Stop using closed software. Anything open will be around forever and can be compiled using old or new compilers. Mostly natively but if not possible, inside emulators. Also; Visual Age for Java ; I thought I was the only person in the world who thought it was much better that Eclipse. Seems there is 1 other person.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
You mean a 64bit architecture literally cannot handle an 8bit instruction as its smallest register is 16bit without swapping modes? Where did you get that piece of misinformation from? 64-bit x86 can handle 64, 32, 16, and 8-bit data just fine, and its instructions are still byte-aligned. Also, the decision to remove 16-bit support from 64-bit Windows was entirely political. NTVDMx64 adds it back.
After further reading, yes I am wrong! Thanks
