[comp.lang.c++] Turbo C++ ver 1.0 - _stklen

kyle@saturn.ucsc.edu (Kyle Smith) (03/10/91)

I have been trying to set _stklen in Turbo C++ 1.0.  I put the line

extern unsigned _stklen = 8196; 

in the global data section of module containing main(), however, it
always causes the program to crash with a stack overflow message
before ever reaching main.  Can anyone help.
