I remember earlier microdatas having a NUMBER limit of 1,500. I hit that wall a couple of times with all the files' records being MATREAD instead of READ. And, earlier programmers often DIM'd even the smallest file array as DIM TERMS(100) even though the TERMS file had 3 fields.
Perhaps that influenced me to use READ instead of MATREAD almost exclusively unless I really needed to have a traditional array. my 1 cent. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ross Ferris" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, June 24, 2004 12:51 AM Subject: RE: [U2] [UD] udtconfig memory settings > Isn't there a 32K limit on the NUMBER of variables .... that DIM statement will use 60K variables (even though it IS sorta/kinda just one .... arrays are funny like that) > > Ross Ferris > Stamina Software > Visage an Evolution in Software Development > > >-----Original Message----- > >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:owner-u2- > >[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ken Wallis > >Sent: Thursday, 24 June 2004 11:00 AM > >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > >Subject: RE: [U2] [UD] udtconfig memory settings > > > >Simon Lewington wrote: > > > >> Could anyone tell me what udtconfig setting[s] I should > >> change to allow me > >> to have a larger named common on UD 5.2.0 (old, I know) on Win NT... > >> > >> BP TEST > >> 0001 PROGRAM TEST > >> 0002 COMMON /TEST/ TEST(60000) > >> > >> : RUN BP TEST > >> insufficient memory, requested size = -177152 > >> and my session crashes. > >> > >> DIM TEST(60000); MAT TEST='' > >> works fine. > >> > >> COMMON /TEST/ TEST(30000) > >> COMMON /TEST2/ TEST2(30000) > >> is also fine. > > > >Simon, I'm not familiar with UniData on NT, but I'd look at changing > >SHM_MAX_SIZE and/or SHM_GPAGESZ.
