1. does info.e exist somewhere? 2. I have been working with euphoria 4.0 for sometime now. I have been bothered by a nagging suspicion. It seems that when a program passes about 350 lines I start to have issues (?). As an example, a switch sequence where, for some reason, a case statement that has always worked now gives an error (case statement must be inside a switch block). Another example, reading a key value from a database. Key is a string sequence. Sometimes it works; sometimes I get an error message telling me that there are sequences inside the key or there are too few or many items to print. dump() shows key is correct - a sequence of ascii characters. If I use an sprintf("%s",db_record_key(rcd)) to, I suppose, recreate the string all is OK. 3. Is there a limit to the size of a sequence (other than the obvious one). When sequences get very long (1 million integers - single atoms) I seem to run into machine level errors. regards, jd
1. info.e is at include\euphoria\info.e 2. No Comment. I have little experience with the euphoria database. 3. Euphoria sequences have no limit other than memory. By memory I mean the 2GB virtual address space, not physical memory. I have used sequences with lengths of many millions without problem.
What revision of Euphoria 4.0 are you using? The earlier builds had issues.
