A Cause of Incomplete Error Messages PSS ID Number: Q40345 Article last modified on 01-20-1989 PSS database name: S_QuickC

MS-DOS

Question:

How come only half of the error message appears while compiling in QuickC? For example, I can see the first line: Error number : (1 of 1), but the second line that explains the error message is not included.

Response:

FILES=20 should be set in the file CONFIG.SYS. Not enough file handles can cause this problem.
