“Code too large” compilation error in Java

Question

Is there any maximum size for code in Java? I wrote a function with more than 10,000 lines. Actually, each line assigns a value to an array variable.

Answer 1

As there is a size limit for methods and you don't want to redesign your code as this moment, may be you can split the array into 4-5 parts and then put them into different methods. At the time of reading the array, call all the methods in a series. You may maintain a counter as well to know how many indexes you have parsed.
