Java compiler ´semantic error´
Feb 25th, 2006, 1:09am  
Hi people, I don´t know if this is the right place to ask, but since this is not imo a bug and I didn´t find any more suitable place, I put it here...

I got a java compiler semantic error when trying to run a sketch containing quite large array of integers, concretely

C:/DOCUME~1/mc/LOCALS~1/Temp/build58023.tmp/Temporary_3825_5813.java:1:260:1:278
: Semantic Error: Method "void this();" in type "Temporary_3825_5813" produced a code attribute that exceeds the code limit of 65535 elements.

C:/DOCUME~1/mc/LOCALS~1/Temp/build58023.tmp/Temporary_3825_5813.java:1:296:9944:
98: Semantic Error: The type "Temporary_3825_5813" produced a constant pool that exceeded the limit of 65535 elements.

I´ve already stripped the array because at first java complained of shortage of heap space and I don´t need so much elements anyway, well, for the time being....

Google didn´t find anything useable, in fact a couple of links were directed on processing forums, but since they were quite old, I suppose, they didnt work

I use 0103 BETA.

Thanx for help

that means you're making too many local variables for the class, whether array elements or whatever.

there's never really a good reason to run up against this boundary, you should read the data from a file instead, use loadBytes() or loadStrings() or something like that, depending on the type of data you need.

yeah, you're right, i've already figured out,
it is a java source file constraint
and a source file is not a data storage so it is maybe more 'correct' to read the data on heap anyway, hm
