Hi netpeople,
Please advice me for my problem.
I try to compile a C source code on HP 9000 series 400
as followed:
cc -c -g TtyText.c
then the compiler gave a error message that
Symbol table overflow. Try the -Wc,-Ns option.
Ok, I try again with option
cc -c -g -Wc,-Ns TtyText.c
the compiler stil gave me a error that
, line 0: warning: Table size specified too small (ignored)
Symbol table overflow. Try the -Wc,-Ns option.
I'm new to unix system, I never see this error message before on
anyother unix system. How can I bigger symbol table?
Thanks in advance...

You must specify a number, like: cc -c -g -Wc,-Ns4000 TtyText.c See cc(1) for more information. Default values are: - a = 10000; Maximum size of the asciz table. - b = 100; Maximum size of the bc table. - d = 1000; Initial size of the dimtab table. - e = 350; Maximum number of nodes per statement. - p = 150; Maximum size of the parameter stack. - s = 2000; Maximum size of the symbol table. - t = 20000; Maximum size of the tasciz table. - w = 250; Maximum size of the switch table stack.

For example: -Wc,-Ns4000 Will allocate symbol table space for 4000 symbols. By default, space is allocated for 2000 symbols. For compiler releases after hp-ux 7.0, the -Wc,-Nx options are no longer necessary; all tables expand automatically. --mev Disclaimer: Not an official HP response.

> Symbol table overflow. Try the -Wc,-Ns option.
If you check out the cc(1) man page in the HP-UX reference, you'll see that
-N is the global option you need, "s" is the sub-option stating which table
is to be re-sized, and a following number is the desired number of entries.
The default number of entries in the symbol table is 2000. You can increase
its size with something like:
-Wc,-Ns4000
Hope this helps,

Try the -Wc,-Ns option. > When it suggests that you use the -Wc,-Ns option it omits to tell you that you have to supply a symbol table size value: e.g. Try this: cc -c -g -Wc,-Ns10000 TtyText.c Where 10000 is the size of the symbol table... Try larger values if this is still not enough! :-) David J.Young _______________________________________________________________________________ /~\ Never Trust An | CNBR10 Corp., VAX/VMS and UNIX Consultants /@@-\____--- Elephant In | "Pay up or we send the boys round to wipe / / / \ Dark Glasses. | your system disk" l/'\ /__\ /\, | \l lll lll | Service with a smile. :-) __~_"""___"""__________________________________________________________________
