NAME

ixstack - set or list the stacksize of executables or show the stack usage

SYNOPSIS

ixstack [ -l | -s | stacksize ] [file...]

DESCRIPTION

Each executable that is compiled with the ixemul 45.0 or later SDK checks on startup whether the stack is smaller than the minimum stacksize, and if so it will automatically allocate a new stack that fits the requirements. The ixstack utility can be used to set or list that minimum stacksize. Ixstack gives an error if you specify a stacksize of less than 4000 bytes.

With ixemul 46.0 and up it is possible to show the stack usage of each program using ixstack .

OPTIONS

-l: List the minimum stacksize instead of setting it. -s Show the stack usage and the total stack size of each program that uses ixemul.library. This only works if you checked the 'Check stack usage' checkbox in the ixprefs program.
