Hello again,
My problem with DOS (console) applications opening more than 45 files
has disappeared installing DJGPP v.2.0 (I previously had v. 1.13 maint 3).
Many thanks to those who answered, because now I can continue my work.
On the other hand, Eli Zaretskii pointed out that in TC (like in many other
DOS compilers), the file table is a constant array whose size is set
when the library is compiled. To know if this is also true with the most
recent Borland compilers, I have compiled my source with Borland C++ 4.52
to produce a MS-Windows application. I have been amazed by a similar
limitation when opening about 36 files. Does anybody know if there is
some way to bypass this limit in Windows applications compiled with
BC 4.52? If the problem has the same cause that in TC 2.0, why BC
users do not demand it? Is it a so strange problem opening more
than 40 files?
Thanks,
XP
