there lies another issue, which, would definately be something for
ben combee (metrowerks) to look into, and, handle more correctly
on their side. the resource output is a whopping 84096 bytes.

yes, thats > 65505 (max limit set allowed for a resource). most
likely, rez is barfing within codewarrior because it cannot handle
the large resource.

Ah... you hit a bug in the V9 linker where it would crash if an input PRC file (or PilRC RO file) had a resource that was too larget. This is fixed in 9.2 -- the linker doesn't crash, but instead warns you that your resource is larger than supported by HotSync. The CW debugger supports downloading these "larger than 64K" resources, but you can't get them on to a device by normal means (HotSync, beaming, VFS).


BTW, 65505 isn't the limit anymore... the OS 5 devices actually have a slightly lower limit due to the larger size of the internal data structures. I don't know the exact number, so I'm warning for 64000 bytes or more in a single resource to be safe.
