Hello..

I am compiling a rather large program on an OOpicII B.2.2+ and I'm
getting the following message -- Error #23, objects have exceeded the
available RAM by XXX bytes

Is this a hardware limitation in the oOpic chip itself or can I remedy
this by installing a bigger eprom? If another eprom is the answer,
could you please specify what to use? Thanks.

Object memory is 86 bytes regardless of how large the EEPROM is. I
believe that is the right number. Anyway, you have too many objects or
you have selected complex objects that use more memory than a similar
but simpler object might use.

If you are using oByte and oWord, you might be able to convert them to
byte and word which uses a different area of memory. You can't do this
if they are linked (I don't believe). Check the manual.

This means that you will need to reduce your object usage. Either
re-use some objects by re-linking at different parts of the program (the
ooPIC has no garbage cleanup) or use lower-resource objects. As Richard
says, you can also try using BYTE or WORD variables instead of oBYTE or
oWORD if they aren't linked to a VC.
