image size too large for EM64T target

blischke · ‎11-01-2005

I'm trying to compile a code that needs more than 2 GBytes of memory. I'm on regular Windows XP, but I'm compiling for an EM64T target computer with over 4 GBytes RAM. I've manged to figure out how to compile, but I get an error at link time that my executable is too large:

LINK : fatal error LNK1248: image size (F4E4F000) exceeds maximum allowable size (80000000)

Is there some switch I need to use? The only compiler switch I'm using is -O2. I'm using a makefile and running nmake, but I believe the command for linking is essentially

ifort -O2 main.obj lastfile.obj -o main.exe

In case it helps, some of the version lines spit out are:

Also, how do I get my email to not show up as the poster, so I don't collect more spam?

Windows x64 does not support static code and data size larger than 2GB. This is a Windows limit, not a compiler limit. You should use ALLOCATABLE arrays if you want more than 2GB.

As for the username - as Tim says, select My Profile in the left column and you should be able to change the name. The next time you log in, the forum should recognize the change and your old posts will have the new name.
