Dear all
I have a heavily recursive pixel grouping algorithm which I have *successfully*
implemented using DJGPP. THe code runs fine under plain old DOS, but when
I run it on any images > ~50*50 in a DOS box under WFW3.11, the code falls
over complaining of a stack fault. A symify on the accompanying stack dump
reveals that the stack is fairly(!) large.
The code is neccessarily recursive and could have a stack as deep as the
number of pixels for some planes. I reported this problem earlier this year,
and DJ suggested increasing the minimum stack size using stubedit, I cranked
this up to 4Mb to no avail (I have 16Mb).
Any thoughts?, I am running a 486DX2-66 with WFW 3.11 and MS-DOS 6.22.
Yours

PS I quite like windows as a development environment, so replies along the
lines of 'don't use windoze(ha!!!), it's crap' would not be entirely helpful.
