Greetings,
my program exits with the code 3. No error messages, no exceptions, and the exit is not initiated by my code.
The problem occurs when I am trying to read extremely long integer values from a text file (the text file is present and correctly opened, with successful prior reading).
I am using very large amounts of memory (in fact, I think that this might be the cause, as I am nearly sure I go over the 2GB per process memory limit). I am also using the GMP (or, rather, MPIR) library to multiply bignums. I am fairly sure that this is not a file I/O problem as I got the same error code
on a previous program version that was fully in-memory.
System:
MS Visual Studio 2008
MS Windows Vista Home Premium x86
MPIR 2.1.0 rc2
4GB RAM
Where might this error code originate from?
EDIT: this is the procedure that exits with the code
void condenseBinSplitFile(const char *sourceFilename, int partCount){
//condense results file into final P and Q
std::string tempFilename;
std::string inputFilename(sourceFilename);
std::string outputFilename(BIN_SPLIT_FILENAME_DATA2);
