Thread: Stack ERROR

I wont post the code as it is too large...

Basicly, I compiled a large application I have been working on
and it compiled and linked ok. But then after the program had executed I got an error box up saying:

"An Exception has occured in your program"
" Stack overflow."
"Break " Continue "Ignore"

I pressed break and then when I went to re-build my program I had to delete a file from the debug folder called

"vc80 pdb" Which I did.. then it worked ok then I got the original error back again!

What is going on!! Am I using up too much memory?

I tried it in DevC++ and it worked perfecly fine. The error only occured when I used MSVC++ 2003.net. Is there somthing I can do to prevent this error?

My application has about 7 files to it.. Should I reduce these to correct the error?

It's not the number of files. It is the code. There is probably a bug in your code that is causing the program to use too much stack space. If it worked in Dev-C++, then there might be something fishy with your build, but normally a stack overflow means you called a recursive function too many times or ended up in an infinite loop that uses more and more memory.

int big[10000];
as a local variable, plus lots of recursion would usually blow the stack away.

Check the sizes of some of the arrays you have, and whether there's any uncontrolled recursion.
