Exactly WHEN is the error occuring?  As soon as the array is initialized, or
sometime after that (maybe when settingup initial data?).  You shouldn't
have any problems, since defualt DJGPP DPMI module CWSDPMI allows virtual
memory.

Make sure you're not trying to write to an array entry that is outside of
the array bounds (especially check for loops, I've crashed whole systems by
putting the wrong count in one of those).  Also, try initializing a single
pointer to your map class, and see if you get the error.  If so, there could
be something wrong in your map class constructor.

> I have been recieving an error that I am assuming is a memory error.  My
program starts up, but never actually runs anything.  It quits with a 255
code, with a message about SIGSEGV.  I found out what in my program was
causing the error.  I declared an array of size 50 of a type that was about
230444 bytes large. (it is a map class if you are wondering)  I figured out
that this won't work on my computer since that needs about 11 megs of
memory, but I can shrink that with no problem.  I was wondering if there was
a way to fix this though.  I did try my array at a size of 10 and got the
same thing.  Do I need to do something with my memory to get this to work?
I'm going to get a new computer in the next couple months, so I am not
woried about memory at this point.  Any help would be appreciated.
