Hello all, I have a very strange problem in my application that I was hoping
someone else had encountered before (and has a fix for).
During the startup phase my application an array is built to hold all the
data definitions.
Each element of the array is a record which represents a (dbase) table. The
record holds a couple of string variables and an array of records holding
index definitions and an array of records holding field definitions.
The problem that we are having is that after adding some new tables we get
an EOutOfMemory exception during the building of the array. At first I
thought that this would have something to do with increasing the size of the
dynamic array but it is than that.
For each field definition you call a method of the database definition
object which adds it to the database definition array. This is the line in
question:
DefineField('RecruitmentCentreAdvertisementID', 'AutoInc', 0, 0,
'Recruitment Centre Advertisement ID', False, '', '', '', False, True);
When I step into this function all the string parameters turn into random
bits of memory and at the point that I try and assign the first string to
it's appropriate record I get the EOutOFMemory exception.
It's almost like I have run out of strings??? I have tried increasing the
stack size and unticking the "Huge Strings" so that all strings are declared
as short strings to no effect.
Any suggestions?
TIA,
Guy Brown
