Answer Posted / chandra
On Windows platform (32 bit) the max array size is FFFFFFFF.
so if you give int arr[0x3FFFFFFF]; it works in VC++.
and if you try arr[0x40000000]; it gives following error:
error C2148: total size of array must not exceed ffffffff
bytes
We came to this value(3FFF FFFF) by dividing FFFFFFFF (2
power 32) by 4 because each int is 4 byte. so for char
array this value will be full FFFF FFFF.
