On the subject of double indirection:

I'm studying here at SynOptics the possible use of Borland
C++ to write Microsoft Windows applications in a medium
memory model. We would like to store the data for our class
instances mainly in the global heap as moveable segments.

I'm just beginning to study this issue and find it somewhat
confusing. Is there an analog to MPW C++'s HandleObject in
Borland C++? Any advice on this subject would be much
appreciated...
