2030.0. "Problem with Basic" by NLCFLS::ELLISM () Wed Dec 21 1988 05:36
I'm writing a program in Amiga BASIC (don't laugh), and am hitting
some problems. I hope someone may be able to help.
I have to clear extra space for the program, because it is getting
rather large.
When I run the program first, it complains that a certain sub program,
that I call, doesn't exist - but it does. So, I run it again and
it works! However, if I run it again, When it tries to open it's
4th window it complains that it is out of stack space.
Any ideas anyone?

| The best advice I can give is not to program in Amiga Basic.
Consider C.

| The default stack is 25,000 I believe. Just increase it at the
beginning of the program. Amiga BASIC programs compiled with the
Absoft compiler run pretty darn fast. The ORBITS program in
pauly"amiga":: was programmed in Basic and then compiled.

| .1
I'm considering C for the future, but I'm writing this program for
a friend - and he wants it like yesterday and I can't use C (Getting
my manager to send me on a training course!)
.2 and .3
I did say that I had tried CLEAR, maybe I just need to increase
that but surely that doesn't cause the program not to find the sub
program?
Thanks for trying to help anyway
