c++ - Linker crash

↑ ↓ ← → Ed <matador home.nl> writes:
Hi,

I am using the latest version but also previous versions produce
the following error message:

  Unexpected OPTLINK termination at EIP=4000F982

The status line shows the module LIB/USER32.LIB

The library is from 2 january 2006 and 70,144 Kb

Any idea?

Found the trouble maker, it happens when you define a table > 1
million entries, for instance:

#define EOC_MAX	 1000000
static unsigned int hkw [EOC_MAX];

Now raise EOC_MAX to 2 million and the linker crashes.

Hoping for a solution....

Ed

The easiest solution is to new() the array, rather than statically 
allocate it.

How to "new()" is new to me, can you explain Walter?

new() is C++. If you're using C, you can use malloc() instead.

Ok, will find my way around. But, are you going to fix the linker
problem? I mean, compiling with DOSX no such problems do occur.

Thx again for excellent support & compiler.

It won't be fixed in the near future.
