Is there a known limitation to how many lines or characters that eval can handle in Mac OS X?
I have created a system where a Perl script, running on a client machine, executes task scripts written in Perl sent to it by a server. The client script reads in the entire task script, then uses eval to execute it. Normally, this works fine. However, Mac OS X runs into a segmentation fault when it tries to eval one of my large scripts. The segmentation fault happens when the script is larger than 1100 lines. The script works fine on Windows, Linux, and Solaris. thanks in advance, Tom Sackett tsackett @adobe.com
