As far as I understand there's no need to "code" anything. It just tells your 32bit application (64 bit doesn't need modifications) that it is able to allocate beyond the 4GB limit. If you fail to set the flag, and you go beyond the limit, you'll just get an OutOfMemoryException.

Solution 2

You can do this as a PostBuild Task.
In the "Build Events" tab, use this line:

editbin /largeaddressaware $(YourTargetPath)

Good luck,
Edo

Hi

You should write following code in the post build event of the project for which you want to allow to exe use more the 2GB memory.

call "$(VS100COMNTOOLS)..\tools\vsvars32.bat"
editbin /largeaddressaware $(TargetPath)

By following command you can check any exe file is enabled largeaddressaware or not.

C:\> DumpBin /Headers yourexename.exe

Thanks,
