Judge) Organization: AT&T Bell Laboratories, Columbus Lines: 39 Summary: where did it go ?? I have been using LightSpeed C, with the shareware RamStart and after a couple of months now, it decided to staop working!! What I have been doing: - Boot up a boot floppy that starts up RamStart to make a RamDisk of 400K. This has MacsBug and the System file has only 4 DAs (Chooser, ControlPanel, IconMaker, BasetoBase). Cache is set on to 256K. - Once up, I put in my LSC disk (has LSC, Mac includes, Mac libraries, a project folder: ~166K space left on it). - Start up one of my projects, that I compiled into an application just 4 days ago and now LSC blows up at the first or second line with "Out of Memory". Nothing changed in the source, The control panel looks the same as 4 days ago. - I added DiskInfo DA to the System File and checked how much memory was free (in LSC project, with 400K RamDisk, cache on to 256K, etc) and it answered 48K. Now I don't know how much was free 4 days ago, but what ever amount it was, it was enough to compile this small application! I ran a memory check (simple walking pattern through high and low memory and it all tested fine (it said it tested 1 Meg's worth. What to do now???????? Think, what do you say? Hey, by the way, I didn't see a mention of OutOfMemory in your manual(compiler error message section) Is it there somewhere? --------------------------------------------------------------------- PS I hope you'all have some good answer (like parameter Ram reset or something - I'll check that tonight) because I'm REALLY tight on ca$h - buying a house - come over sometime when I get it!) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Joseph Judge cbdkc1!joe AT&T Bell Labs For those of you not from around here: Universe!MilkyWay!SolarSystem!Earth!USA!Ohio!Columbus!AT&TBellLabs!cbdkc1!joe ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ || || || || || Red Hair || || || || || || || Ask Directions. || 3rd Planet (all green and blue) way out on the edge, you can't miss it.
