Out of Memory Errors

rbuser

In an old post, I wrote.....

Using RB6.03, D5, W2K, 256MB RAM

I am writing a report to generate a fixed length text only output file. I am
processing the report with 2000 records and all works fine. When I run
15,000 records, the report blows an out of memory error. I have turned
CachePages off. All output is to a file, not to screen or printer.

I have since tried your suggestions of:

CachePages := False;
and
TppCacheManager.CacheType := ppCTFile;

I am still having the same problem. If I look at a memory usage monitor,
each additional page takes a little over 3K to process. Eventually it
crashes my system.

Thanks,

Andy

Is it a single pass or double pass report report? If the later, try changing
it to single pass, if you can.

It is a single pass report. And it is set as single pass in the report
itself and again at runtime.

What is on the page (ie. which RB components and how many)? 3K is pretty
large for a single page. Have you run your code through a memory profiler
to see where it is leaking?
