Array size limits

Question

I have an array problem that i want to overcome, if i change the value of const int \"are\" to 2048 the program runs fine but at 8192 or even at 4096 ( just 130,000 elements

Answer 1

Allocate the array dynamically, since there are often limits on how much data you can have on the stack (which is where automatic local variables typically end up):

unsigned char* cmain = new unsigned char[are];
