From: Paul McNabb <pam@Purdue.ARPA> After several hours of frustration I have found an interesting "feature" of the Lattice C compiler. I am running an IBM-PC with 640K with an AST board and associated software. It seems that if I have <128K of memory for user programs, the first pass of the compiler reports that it cannot find any of my header files; a very unnerving error to get. When I increase the memory slightly I can get it to "find" only include files that aren't nested. It seems that the more 64K segments I have available the greater the amount of #include nesting I can use. Can I assume that these guys are reserving full segments for each level of header files? Anyone else seen this behavior? Paul McNabb Purdue University (pam@purdue)
