EOutofmemory

edited July 2001 in General
I'm getting intermittent Eoutofmemory problems in a loop which creates
about 300 6 page (average) docs. The machine doing this has plenty of
free RAM etc when this happens and I've tried various windows memory
tweaks.

There are no apparent memory leaks, and no unfreed objects that I can
see. The prog uses IBX components, not BDE but I am using a BDE
pipeline.

Should I switch to the DB pipeline (I'm still using regular datasources)
as I've had BDE problems aplenty before.

Any other hints (I've just turned off cachepages but not tested yet)?
BTW its RB 4.24pro.

TIA

David

    Hi,

    you can use a dbpipeline. Its recomended. Bdepipelines are for backward
    compatibility. Also get the newest drivers (printer, motherboard, graphic
    card, ..) you can get your hands on. Has 4.24 the chachpages property. If so
    set it to false. Also see the tech tip on minimizing the size of the exe.
    These tips also minimize your memory footprint.

    enjoy,
    Ron.

    Seems to have done the trick, thanks (no more 5am phonecalls!)
