Talk:ILINK64.EXE, the 64-bit Incremental Linker

The reference to "IMPORT32.LIB" should be "import64.a" for ilink64.


Hello,

Could add a section or a linked page that explains how to handle "Fatal: Out of memory" messages from the linker. Bottom line: the IDE simply relays the Fatal message but the linker emits more information about each heap and how much memory was used. For example: 

Turbo Incremental Link64 6.40 Copyright (c) 1997-2012 Embarcadero Technologies,
Inc.
Overrun on linker heap: info
Linker Heaps

dwarf_ranges           0x00275000  0x02000000
Fatal: Out of memory


The -GV<heapname>=size can then be used to allocate bigger heap or heaps. For example, to link the release version of the DLL OWLNext library, I am currently using -GHinfo=0x12000000

Cheers,

Bruneau

Thanks, Bruneau, for your information. I have added it to the ILINK64 page.
