Re: CEE0808 error on %alloc

[Alexei Pytel <pytel@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I've found this statement in ILE Concepts Chapter 8 
(http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r2/ic2924/books/c415606611.htm).
"The maximum size of any single allocation from a heap is limited to 16 
megabytes minus 64K bytes. "

The largest single allocation is 16MB - 1 page, which is 16773120.

I see the same issue at V5R2.  Perhaps this is a PTF?  It works if you 
grab
16770018 bytes though.  I thought it was related to the amount of storage
already allocated to the program, but adding dome character variables 
didn't
change the limit any.  Nor did allocating several 16770018 byte buffers.
