Could you please tell me how can I work with large arrays in
C/Objective-C. My
compiler (gcc) can not handle, for example, the following array
a[15][150][9][197], which is not too big. If I reduce the size to
a[15][150][9][19], for example, it works ok. I had prepared a small
example to
show the problem and it's in the attachment. Finally, I have the
problem with
both Linux and cygwin.
You are just overflowing the stack. Either use the heap or a
global/static
variable.
