Hello again!
I think this topic does allready exists from the past. did not know.
What I would like to see is:
That Dim gives back a result if there is not enough memory for it. In my applications I need huge dimensions and its possible not enough memory there so PB only crashes. not realy nice.
So, how could I check this or is it possible to implement this in the Dim Command?

Else try calc the memory size of the Dim and do a ruff check with the win32 API GlobalMemoryStatus.

Code: Select all
MS.MEMORYSTATUS
MS\dwLength = SizeOf(MEMORYSTATUS)
GlobalMemoryStatus_(@MS)
Debug "Avail mem: "+Str(MS\dwAvailPhys)
end
