Gavin, is it safe to increase the stack size? Could that cause other apps on the Palm to crash? Would I have to write any memory checking routines or anything like that? I am a fairly novice programmer, I would not dare to mess with memory management... On the Palm Knowledge Base I found the suggestion to use the pragma "stack_cleanup on" to avoid stack overflow (I am using CW 8 for Palm on MacOS9). I tried it and it seemed to work somehow. I dont get the stack overflow right away, but when I repeatedly call the offensive function the error occurs nevertheless. I am not sure how this pragma thing works. Do I have to put the pragma command in front of the code snippet that poses problems? At the beginning of the function that causes the problem? At the beginning of the function that calls the function that causes the problem? at the beginning of the whole program? Do I have to it off again? If yes, where in the code? There is also the option stack_cleanup reset, what does that mean? I hope you can help me! Thank you all! Yours Andreas. -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
