Segmentation fault in C++

Dec 5th, 2006

Hi,
I've got a "Segmentation Fault" error in C++ when trying to allocate a vector with a dimension of 2 million. I'm using the library "memory.h"
Any help is welcome

2 million what? Chances are good you're exceeding the limits of a single allocation request. But it's hard to say without seeing some code.

I'm here to prove you wrong.

Mmm... not enough memory? If that's not it, try posting some code (or at least the part where the error occurs). Thanks.
