AMT_PE 17 - AMT Application Exits on Startup (1-Aug-95)


Q We have an Apple Media Tool application that we're having trouble converting to run on the PC. The program runs, but exits without doing anything. What is causing this type of behavior?

A When a program exits on startup, it is usually because a heap is too small to hold all the objects in your project. Increase the size of the heap so that it is slightly larger than the size of the KW3 file by editing the Resource.RES file in your directory. After you do this, you have to rebuild RESOURCE.MAK on the PC and re-link it with your application.
