I receive the following message when compiling:

Only thing I can figure out is that there possibly a problem with memory "region ram is full"

Any suggestions? Thank you.

Craig: Could RAM memory actually be full?

For the Rel22_rc2 build, the console dumps the following info out. Were you getting close in previous builds?

A snap shot from a really simple project's compile window:
S records output with a base address of ffc08000
S records output with a final address of ffc1cc1f
About to write S7...

Do you have very large buffers or arrays in your project? There is enough SDRAM on the NetBurner that you would have to allocate multiple megabytes of objects to run out of space here.
One place it would be easy to run out of space is SRAM. Are you using allocating space in SRAM with the FAST_USER_VAR attribute? It would only take about 30K of added variables in SRAM to get an overflow error message.

Yea one of my static arrays was apparently too large. I just decreased the size of my array, built the project, and everything was fine.


It should be stated that the application compiled without error using an older runtime (1.82-RC2) but compiling it with my current runtime (2.1-RC3a )resulted in this memory error.

A few last releases of NNDK use SRAM for stack of various system tasks.
Thus, the free SRAM space is shrinked.
