My program has serval huge arrays (i.e., 500x500) and I got trap when compiling this file. By the way, I did not set any of the optimaization flags. Then I broke the file into smaller files each contained one array but I still could not get rid of it. Moreover, sometimes the compilation got exeception 13, 14 or 6.... I executed cc1 using debug32 and I found the trap was caused by: movzx ????,[eax] whereis eax=0xffffffff Well, that's all I tell now.. Best regards, Eric
