Re: Max Size of the program in RSE vs Green Screen

One other note...if you have a program that large...it's time to
evaluate if some of the code can be broken down into smaller programs,
modules or service programs. That kind of monolith code sounds like a
holdover from days gone by...

Thanks,

Hi Chandra,

SEU allows a maximum of 32 764 lines in a member
LPEX doesn't have a line limit, however, once you exceed 999 999 lines
(provided you are using increment of 1), sequence numbers start back at
0,
so sequence number operations (like position to sequence number).
I would also note that editing source of this size will have performance
relative to you PC speed, memory available, network speed etc.
In my experience with CODE and LPEX, I have seen several customers with
source in the 65 000 line range, so exceeding the SEU limit is not
unheard
of.
I don't know if compilers have any limits on line number, but that may
also
be something to consider.

Hope that helps!

Hi,

Recently we faced a situation that green screen says the size of the
program reaches the Max. When we tried it in RSE it worked OK. Do you

guys

know what are the Max sizes on both? Any suggestions on how to deal

with

it except cleaning up of unwanted code.

Thanks
Chandra
