Greetings:

I was wondering if there are any general suggestions on how to cope with
GNAT giving an "insufficient memory" error.

The scenario:

-- Ada spec and body, with about 60+ separates, each of which has
significant amounts of code.

-- GNAT compiler version (gasp!) 3.05 for DOS:
� -- Running under Win95.
� -- Configured MS-DOS session to 640K conventional memory, 4096K
environment.
� -- Machine has 32M memory, allowing Win95 to allocate virtual memory.

-- GNAT compiler version 3.09 for Win95:
� -- Running Win95.
� -- Machine has 16M memory, allowing Win95 to allocate virtual memory.

Both machines have the same problem -- both bail due to "insufficient
memory".

Running with the "-v" verbose option, I can see that gnat1.exe is the
executable which is running out of memory.

(BTW, the code _does_ compile -- I'm trying to port it to a PC.� It
compiles fine under Apex on a Sun Solaris.)

Any help is greatly appreciated. =)
