I have a script that reads in a 1.1 MB file in OS 9.2.2. This script
is run by another script (an applet) with the "run script" command. I
get an out of memory error (-108) even if I allot 8 MB to my script
runner. When I watch the runner's memory usage in 'About this
Computer', it is clear that less than half the assigned 8 MB ever
gets used, but I still get the -108 message. If I run the same set up
in Classic in OS X, everything works fine.
Is there some limit to the number of bytes I can read in at the same
time in OS 9.2.2? (The script reads the data in, processes it, then
writes it out to a second file. The way the script is now written,
both files are open at the same time.)
Thanks,
Don
