This article was previously published under Q103713 SYMPTOMS
When building a project in the Visual Workbench, syntax errors on
BSCMAKE, "missing source file" errors from the compiler, or a compiler
stack overflow error C1063 occurs sporadically under extremely low
disk space situations.
CAUSE
When the available disk space is enough for the executable file but not
for other files that are being generated, either BSCMAKE or the linker
may fail. Also, the compiler may generate the compiler stack overflow
error instead of an error indicating that it cannot write a file due
to low disk space.
RESOLUTION
To work around this problem, try to free up more disk space. Choosing
to not generate browser information or create precompiled headers may
also help.
MORE INFORMATION
Normally, an error indicating that there is either low disk space or
that a file cannot be created or written to disk is generated instead.
