What is TINY mode?

[cilu]

You built a DEBUG and RELEASE configuration, not mode. You need to explain better what you want to do.

do you mean how to reduce the size of ur final app?
i dont hink theres a "tiny mode" on the compiler
u can always use a runtime PE packer

The only "Tiny" mode that I've ever heard of is for the old MSDOS Turbo C compiler, and that was almost 20 years ago. No such mode exists now for a modern OS and modern compiler.

Hmmm, Google didn't find out something useful searching for SCons "tiny mode"
Perhaps, you should ask your "Prof." to explain more clear what he wants from you.

And, BTW, could you omit the leading ">" symbols in your posts? They do not help to read understand your posts...

Any way... i appreciate u guys for replying me... and also i'll be waiting for other replies... i hope i get solution for this...

Solution for what??

VictorN gave your next step: Perhaps, you should ask your "Prof." to explain more clear what he wants from you.

Well, I suppose you could compile with optimization set to prefer small code rather than fast, and using the runtime DLLs rather than static runtime linking.

As mentioned earlier, you can simply pack your executable/dlls with a executable packer like UPX. I do it with almost everything a write.

As Victor said, TINY is a build option for a 16-bit application (sweet memories ) , i.e. TINy is really nothing that's applicable these days.

I guess people might still use 16-bit compilers.
Anyway, here is a nice write-up about the subject (Tiny "memory model", NOT "mode"): WiKi

I still use Visual C++ 1.52 [seriously!]
