Subj : Re: Too many open files To : borland.public.cpp.borlandcpp From : "Ed Mulroy [TeamB]" Date : Fri Jul 04 2003 10:06 am FYI: That macro sets the limit on the number of FILE* style files that can be used at once. It is the number of allocated FILE structures provided by the runtime library code to handle file I/O. If you change the value of the macro, that number of structures does not change. ..
