Hello,

I have got a problem of An unhandled exception of type 'System.StackOverflowException'.

I have read that it is possible that the reason is that I have too many method calls.

I am working with a GUI and I didn't want that the code in Form() was too big so I thougth I could make a function, similar to C, in another .cpp and this way having there the code and making a call from Form().

Form()
void labelling ()
{
    bwlabel(image,8);
}

bwlabel.h

void order(void);
void bubble(void);
void bwlabel (System::Drawing::Bitmap^ image, int number);//inside bwlabel I use order() and bubble().

Could be that the reason of the error? and if it is, what can I do to solve it?

Thank you in advanced!!

Maybe you have a following kind of scenario ...

void fun1();

void fun2()
{
    fun1();
}

void fun1()
{
    fun2();
}

int main()
{
    fun1();
    return 0;
}

it is not exactly that. I have got:

void main()
{
    bwlabel(image,8);
}

bwlabel.h

void order(void);
void bubble(void);
void bwlabel (System::Drawing::Bitmap^ image, int number);

bwlabel.cpp

void order(void)
{
   //instructions
}
void bubble(void)
{
     //instructions
}

void bwlabel (System::Drawing::Bitmap^ image, int number)
{
    order()
    bubble()

}

I think that it is not the same scenario but maybe I am wrong!

}

That should be OK, depends of course on what order() and bubble() actually are doing.

PS. void main() should really be int main() see e.g.

ok, thank you so much!!

I'll see if I find a solution!!
