Compiler out or Memory Error

Compiler out or Memory Error

[Citizen Kane]

I'm using Meridian ADa compiler and contiually get a " Compiler out of
memory " error, eventhough I have 32 mb of ram and don't have any other
programs running. This error appears to be running amok all of my
classmates are getting the same problem.
1. Windows 95
2. 32mb ram
3. Meridian ADA
4. No TSR's operating.

Can someone offer any suggestions ??????????

Is that Meridian compiler running as a DOS program?  If so, do you
have lots of room in "real" memory?  Do you have a single large
package that perhaps could be split into separate compilations?

The DOS version of the Meridian compiler is a hog.  Run screaming from
the Sun version.  I got the DOS Meridian to work by compiling it through
an editor (VEDIT) that could swap itself, and nearly everything else,
out of memory before running the compiler.  My honest opinion is that
you get a good compiler (GNAT) and put it on a real OS (Linux).

why not simply Use GNAT ?

If I remember how that antique works ...
you are probable using the real mode compiler 640K won't compile much.
configuer it by executing adaext this will allow the extended mode
version to run. It's not likely you are running the 32 bit version if
you were you could use that by executing ada32. 


Hope this helps

Didn't(doesn't) Meridian under DOS support tasking?

If you're shelling to DOS to run the compiler, did you try typing
ADA2 FILENAME.ADA
rather than
ADA FILENAME.ADA  ?
