[comp.windows.x] resource limitations...

breit@ks25.UUCP (06/08/90)

Hello Xperts,

I need a little information.

Is there a limitation on the size of on individual resource (seems to be around
4K characters)?  I',m trying to define a translation table in a resouce file 
with little success and a lot of strange errors from the resource manager
(I,m running Ultrix 3.1c/DecWindows 2.2 on a DecStation 2100).

Thanks in advance for your help!

Looking at the R4 code, the value part of a resource specification is allocated
"on-the-fly" and does not seem to have an upper limit to its size.
