3465.0. "Uil compiler limit to 1000 objects??" by TAV02::ITAMAR_E () Mon Oct 15 1990 05:40

Hi everybody,
    
    Is there any limitation for the number of objects in a uil file?
    One of our customers has an application that generates a uil file.
    The uil compiler aborts with  %UIL-F-SUBMIT_SPR, Internal error , when
    the number of the objects in the file grows above 1000.

    Is it a known problem? Is there any fix or workaround available??

    Any help is welcome.

    Thanks in advance,

    Itamar.

3465.1Break it into two filesVINO::MCARLETONReality; what a concept!Mon Oct 15 1990 11:108

    You could break up the single UIL file into two files that when
    compiled produce two UID files.  You can then pass both file names
    to DwtOpenHierarchy.

    None that I know of. What should be done here is to submit QAR or SPR
    with the version # and some pointer to the UIL file that is causing the
    error to occur.

3465.3A little example please...TAV02::ITAMAR_EMon Oct 15 1990 12:4515
    RE .1

    Is it possible to get a little example that shows how to pass two file
    names to DwtOpenHierarchy?? I'll be very grateful.

    RE .2

    Of course, I'll send a QAR the moment I'll finish to create the minimum
    environment that reproduces the problem - for your convenience.


    Thanks a lot,


    Itamar.

Example of using more than one UID file:
    
static DRMHierarchy s_drm_hierarchy; /* Key to the UID files */

/* Data to interface with UIL-generated structures */

static char *uid_files[] = {
  "decw$system_defaults:menus.uid",
  "decw$system_defaults:main_window.uid",
  "decw$system_defaults:dialog_boxes.uid"
};
static DRMCount nbr_uid_files =
    (sizeof uid_files / sizeof uid_files[0]);

main()
{
    int status;
    char uidstr[512];
    int i;
    .
    .
    .
    status =
      DwtOpenHierarchy(nbr_uid_files, uid_files, NULL, &s_drm_hierarchy);
    if (status != DRMSuccess){
        uidstr[0] = '\0';
        for(i=0;i<nbr_uid_files;i++){
           if(i) strcat(uidstr,", ");
           strcat(uidstr,uid_files[i]);
        }
        printf("Can't open uid files %s\n",uidstr);
    }
}
