FIX: GPF/UAE When New Project Loaded After Large Previous Proj (94351)

MORE INFORMATION

You may encounter this problem with less then 3900 procedures if lack of memory is a problem. Each procedure can hold a large amount of code and create a problem even though you have less than 3900 procedures.

Steps to Reproduce Problem

1. Start VB.EXE.
2. Choose New Module from the File menu.
3. Add the following procedure to MODULE1.BAS (the default module name) in the (general) section:

      Sub main ()
         Open "test1.bas" For Output As #1
         For i% = 1 To 4000
            Print #1, "sub sub" + Trim$(Str$(i%))
            Print #1, "end sub"
         Next
         Close
      End Sub
   						

4. Choose Project... from the Options menu. In the Project window, select the Start Up Form line and change it from the default Form1 to Sub Main.
5. Press the F5 key or ALT+R+S to run and build the TEST1.BAS file.
6. Choose New Project from the File menu. You don't have to save the project outlined in steps 1 through 5 above.
7. Once a New Project is running, choose Add File... from the File menu.
8. Select the file TEST1.BAS from the Add File window. This is a large (4000 empty procedures) file, so it will take some time to load.
9. Once the TEST1.BAS file is loaded, choose View Code from the Project window with the TEST1.BAS file highlighted. Then you can view the 4000 empty procedures under the (declarations) section.
10. Choose New Project from the File menu. Choose the No button on saving FORM1.FRM, and choose the No button on saving PROJECT1.MAK.

After choosing the second No button, you may receive a UAE or GP fault.
