Dunno. I think it used to be 4 kb for 16-bit targets, but they may?? have increased it to 16 kb in the meantime. http://www.openwatcom.com/index.php/C_Compilers_Release_Changes That says 1.7 increased 32-bit stack from 4 kb to 64 kb by default. (But 16-bit stack is probably smaller for obvious reasons.) (Note that I vaguely remember the warning that any map file created won't reflect changes in stack and only reports default size.) > If you use "stack=4096", it means the default stack size might be much > smaller than the 16384 I am using. Don't put big arrays on the stack. As mentioned, dynamically allocate them from the heap via malloc or similar. Or statically declare them global, but .... ;-) BTW, "stack=" is a WLINK option. I think you can also change it at compile time with "-k" switch. (Not sure if there is any functional difference here, doubt it, just mentioning for completeness.) -k<stack_size> set stack size ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
