| Subject: | Can max_array_length be enlarged? |
Hi, In ocaml, the max length of array is determined by the predefined constant max_array_length. Is it possible to build an array with length longer than this? I noticed that this constant is defined in source code sys.ml by: let max_array_length = (1 lsl (word_size - 10)) - 1;; Is it safe to modify this code to set a bigger value for max_array_length? Thank you in advance for any help on this point. -- Dennis Gang CHEN Senior Software Engineer Motorola Australia Software Centre, Electronic Design Automation 2 Second Avenue, Mawson Lakes, SA 5095, Australia phone: +61 8 8203 3560, mailto: Dennis.G.Chen@motorola.com
