Hi,

Is there a way to increase stack size ?
Because i have a stack overflow. And if i use :
    Char *buf = (Char *)MemPtrNew(256);
instead of
    Char buf[256];
in my function, my program extremely slow down.

Yes.

If you're using CodeWarrior for Palm OS with Constructor, there is a stack size setting in the application resources ar the bottom of the Constructor resource list window.

If you're using CW for Palm OS V9 with the Palm OS 68K linker, you should be able to specify this using the 68K Palm OS Target pref panel... however, there is a bug here, and the wrong resource ID is created, so instead you need an entry in a RCP file that says:

HEX "pref" ID 0 0x00 0x1e 0x00 0x00 0x10 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x10 0x00

where hex numbers 2-5 represent the new stack size.

If you're using prc-tools, I'm fairly sure stack size is an option you can pass to build-prc.
