java source code file size

[Hemantha]

Hi,

I am trying to define a large array of float type. Unfortunately, the
java source file size comes to around 20MB. Due to this, the compiler
promts an error "java.lang.outofMemory" and does not allow to compile
it. Does anyone know any solution to this problem? There is no problem
in alloacating memory for the array, but it is simply because of the
file size.

Thanks,
Hema

Put the data in a file and fill each array element line by line?

And if it would compile, you will run into the next problem. Java has a
64k class size limit. Read the data from some file.

What on earth have you done to create a Java program of 20 MB? Surely
99.9% of it must be initialisation of some sort. Instead generate a
data file instead and read the data with a tiny java method.

Not true. The 64KB limit is *per method*.

My book says
64K method bytecode limit
64K number of constants in a class
64K number of local variables in a method
64K operand stack limit
64K limit on number of fields
64K limit on number of methods
255 limit on number of diminsions
4GB limit on virtual machine addressing on 32-bit machines
255 limit on number of method arguments (127 if double types)
