Error: Too much global data defined in file
Morosh 1 October 2008 10:55:56
	Hello: I made a C++ program for accountancy purposes, it's DOS style, I compile using bcc.exe of Borland C++ v5.2. I choose the "large model". Now I have this new error "Error: Too much global data defined in file" saying that I have a lot of global variables. I counted the space required for my global data, it didn't exceed 64k. my command line is: bcc -4 -ff -N -ml e:\my_data\prog\tc\%1.cpp > compc.rpt In the same time, I have a lot of message'strings, but with the large model there is 1MB of data space. Is there any solution for that? Thanks Morosh

	Global and static data go into a combined segment called DGROUP. The machine hardware limits a segment to 64K. If you add the keyword 'far' to a global or static data items, the compiler will flag it to be placed into a different segment and not in DGROUP. Try locating a few of the largest global data items and adding that keyword to them. For example: char far big_array[2048]; The language standards committee dictated that compiler-specific keywords begin with an underscore. It has been a while since I did this with BC++ 5.02 and I don't remember how strictly this is enforced. If it gives trouble with 'far', then use '_far'. Please let us know how this works for you. .

	Hi: I tried to add "far" or "_far" to the biggest arrays, the result is exactly the same, (the error is on the same line), my command is : bcc -4 -ff -N -ml file.cpp I counted the space required for my global data, it's 13934 bytes only!!!

	13394 bytes of global data is not consistent with generating getting that error. I do not understand the need for -N since its main value is in small model programs or the need for -ff because it is on by default. Yes, please zip it up and send me the project. Please include the bcc32.cfg file form the compiler's BIN directory. My email address is ed at mulroy dot org (translate 'at' to '@' and 'dot' to '.' I used them here as defense against spammers who automate scraping email addresses from newsgroup messages) One warning: I will be out until late tonight (13:53 Sunday here now - East Coast US) so won't be able to look at this until tommorrow (Monday) morning. .

Now I have this new error "Error: Too much global data defined in file" saying that I have a lot of global variables.

	You offered to send the source file for analysis and on the 20th I provided an email address. If you sent it then something went wrong with the email and a new email is needed. .

Did you include all of your string literals in that count? charError[64];64 bytes of data strcpy( Error, "Error: Too much global data defined in file"); Another 44 bytes of data. Total: 108 bytes

	Hi: I've send you twice the project files to the address you specified and had no reply. May be they are filtered by a junk filter?

	It still has not arrived. I can only guess that it is as you say, swallowed by a junk mail filter. Send a copy to this address. It does not have that same filter. edwardmulroy@yahoo.com .

	I have received the email. I now know why it was discarded by the filters. You used a subject of "Re:" which duplicates that which is the subject of a lot of spam. Emails with such subjects are set to be rejected by my filter as I have no use for ordering illegal drugs and both my wife and I are content with my current breast size. There are many issues with what you sent. At first glance it appears that the error reporting an excessive amount of global data may be wrong. It appears that the error more relates to the massive amount of stack usage for large arrays and class instances containing large arrays declared as automatic variables within functions. As the default stack size is 4K, the program as written guarantees the stack will overflow. You need to use the help which came with the compiler. In it you will find the way to alter the stack size of a DOS program is with a single extern declaration in one source file of this type: extern unsigned _stklen = 32768U; where the number assigned must be less than 64K-256 (the operating system may use as much as 256 extra bytes of the segment) and the U at the end of the number indicates the number is an unsigned. That program is quite difficult to analyze because of the way it is structured. The bulk of the code is in the header files, both in non-inline class member function code and in a greater amount of code for standalone, global functions. Non-inline code should be placed into source files. Only the function prototypes or associated class definitions should be in header files. Storage for all of the global data is declared in the header files. Declarations allocatiing storage for global data should be placed into one of the source files and extern declarations for that data placed into header files. C++ functions which take no calling parameters use () and not (void) in their calling argument list. C++ functions which return int are prototyped and written with a return type of int and not with no return type. This also applies to class member functions. Unlike C, C++ will not convert pointer types. An unsigned int* cannot be automatically assigned or converted to a char. The only quiet automatic conversion for pointer types is to a void. This call to complete_ptr specifies a calling argument which is an array name for unsigned int. complete_ptr(ptrtitre[kk][i],' ',ptrlarg[kk][i]); Similarly there is an array of errors related to the conversion of a char near* to unsigned int* starting with this: ptrflag[0][i]=&flag_s[i] And a complaint that the type of the parameter 'rslt' is wrong in this call get_field_str("comptcfg.fil",dumy1,caisse_cpt[i],EXIT); I suggest that you start by doing these things: Copy the global data declarations out of the compta.h header file to a new source file. Then alter the header file declarations to all have the keyword 'extern' at the left and remove the initializations. Move all functions and their associated code from the header files to new source files. Keep the class definitions and function prototypes in the header files. Add a copy of the current include list found in the compta.cpp file to the top of each of the new source files. Create a make file which will be used to build the program. This will allow you to receive errors from only one source file, correct it, and then never have to recompile it as you work on what errors are found in the next file and so on. Using made-up names for the newly created files the make file might look like this: ----------------------------------------- .autodepend OBJS=compta.obj storage.obj code1.obj code2.obj code3.obj \ code4.obj code5.obj code6.obj compta.exe : $(OBJS) tlink /Tpe/v/c @&&\| c0l $(OBJS),compta,,emu cl \| .cpp.obj : bcc -v -c -4 -ff -N -ml $< ----------------------------------------- Note the indenting. While the amount of indenting is not sensitive to the number of spaces used, the fact that something begins in column 1 versus if it is indented is vital to proper operation of the make file. Also do not overlook the periods that appear in column 1 for the '.autodepend' and '.cpp.obj :' lines. They are required. I have retained the -ff which you used in the compiler command line but note that it is the default so is not needed. I have added '-c' to tell it to compile but not link and -v to tell it to include debug information as the program clearly will need debugging. The text of the file above duplicates what I used after I reconfigured your code as discussed above. However I did not troubleshoot everything so the linker command has not yet been executed. If the file were saved with the default name MAKEFILE then a command to compile and link to create the program would be: make If the file were saved with the name SOMENAME.MAK then the command would be: make -f somename.mak where the space after the -f and the extension .mak are optional. .
