Subject: gdb size limit?
To: djgpp AT sun DOT soe DOT clarkson DOT edu


I have used gdb ( go32 -d gdb myprog ) on a few programs compiled with
djgpp12m2  (using -g switch) without problems. With one program, however,
gdb fails to list the source-code with the list command. I get the message:

go32 version 1.12.maint2 Copyright (C) 1994 DJ Delorie

(gdb) l main

(gdb) l main

Is it the size of the program (251924) that is too large (the largest program
I have tested gdb on that works is about 160000) or have I missed something
else?

Thank You
