When compiled with the Far Strings option (BC /FS) and run as a .EXE
program, the program below results in the message "Out of stack space
in line 4." This problem does not occur when the program is run in the
QBX.EXE environment or when it is compiled with the Near Strings
option and run. It also does not occur when lines 1 and 9 are removed,
when line 4 is removed, or when the number of arrays erased is
decreased by one or more.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft BASIC
Professional Development System (PDS) versions 7.00 and 7.10 for
MS-DOS and MS OS/2. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here as it becomes available.
Code Example
------------
1 ON ERROR GOTO 9
2 FOR i% = 1 TO 100
3 REDIM a$(1), b$(1), c$(1)
4 GOSUB 8
5 ERASE a$, b$, c$
6 NEXT i%
7 END
8 RETURN
9 RESUME
