Arg, stack over flow...

I'm working on a equation parser (using recursion).
I'm getting a stack over flow error on the first recursive call by making with parameters consiting of only:
1) 1 TreeNode containing a very short string
2) 1 ArrayList containing only 1 element at that time.
Now I'm confused about how stack overflow works, doesn't it only happen when you try to use too much memory. (ie a recursion that goes too deep)
So can someone tell me why this is causing a stack overflow and clear up for me what really behind stack overflow errors in general? thanks

Now I'm confused about how stack overflow works,

memory. (ie a recursion that goes too deep)Yes.
So can someone tell me why this is causing a stack
overflow Not easy without the code.
What are the termination conditions for the recursive method with the given inputs?

Asking too much and getting a "stack over flow error"

I’m having AS3 create 12 random var (play1, play2, etc) and then I ask it to average the 12 vars (numbers) until I get a specific average number. When I run this in AS2 I get the “script time error, keep running?” question. I tell it to keep running and eventually AS2 finds the right set of 12 numbers to equal a specific average number. In AS3 I get a “stack over flow error”. I know that all my AS3 swf needs is just more time to find it.
Any ideas for a fix?

Jdev3.2,BC4J, ERROR STACK OVER FLOW

HI
I created a BC4J project based on 10 tables. when testing the module an error stack overflow is thrown when trying to open some views. these same views are accessed successfully when the BC4J project is created whith less tables or with only these tables.
can some one help me to avoid such error
every advice is appreciated.

I encountered a stack overflow when trying to access a CLOB data type.
I removed that rowset definition and the problem went away.
JDBC is the work around.

your STATIC getInstance() method has to return a STATIC instance of your singleton.
private static YourSingleton ys = null;
public static YourSingleton getInstance(){
if(ys==null){
    ys = new YourSingleton();
return ys;
}Remember that the singleton constructor has to be private

Purchase Order error - Money Over flow error

Hi,
Our customer wants to create Purchase order for item that has Lenght, Width, Height dimentions (not defined in item master used directly in PO).
Width - 2500mm
Length - 2500mm
Height - 550mm
the quantity in PO is to be in Kilogram (KG) as the rate is Rs per KG. So when we put quantity as 9890 KG there is error
" Money Over flow, cannot display all digits"
Looking in more details , we found that there is volume field at row level in PO which system calculates,
volume = Length * width * height, (for 1 item) but when we add quantty system does
volume = (Length * width * height) * Quantity, the resulting value is more then 20 characters, inluding the commas.
We think this is reason for error,,,any one else faced similar situation and has solution for it.
can we stop system from calulating Volume or the way it calculates volume?
Please advice
Thanks,
- Abhijit.

Thanks Gordon,
Your reply helped me solve the problem, there is a VOlume unit field at row level on PO, changed the UoM there to "cm" instead of "mm" earlier/default. Now we can add the document.
Thanks.

I run into a problem when i develop in VB5, when i use DIG_Change_Message_Config function and use windows API handle, it show me error 6 over flow, anyone how to solve this problem.

hi,
overflow is a VB error. It may be that the handle that is being returned by the method, is causing the overflow..for example, if the handle returns a 32 bit long, and your variable is a short, then you may get this error...

Page Area over flow problem

Hi,
When I am executing The Bapi in Ecc6.0 its goes to Short dump.
Short Dump error is:page area over flow in abap/4 memory.
This is very Urgent please suggest me how to overcome this short dump.

babu

hi
https://forums.sdn.sap.com
abapcode.blogspot.com
ABAP/4 programs can take a very long time to execute, and can make other processes have to wait before executing. Here are some tips to speed up your programs and reduce the load your programs put on the system:
Use the GET RUN TIME command to help evaluate performance. It's hard to know whether that optimization technique REALLY helps unless you test it out. Using this tool can help you know what is effective, under what kinds of conditions. The GET RUN TIME has problems under multiple CPUs, so you should use it to test small pieces of your program, rather than the whole program.
Generally, try to reduce I/O first, then memory, then CPU activity. I/O operations that read/write to hard disk are always the most expensive operations. Memory, if not controlled, may have to be written to swap space on the hard disk, which therefore increases your I/O read/writes to disk. CPU activity can be reduced by careful program design, and by using commands such as SUM (SQL) and COLLECT (ABAP/4).
Avoid 'SELECT *', especially in tables that have a lot of fields. Use SELECT A B C INTO instead, so that fields are only read if they are used. This can make a very big difference.
Field-groups can be useful for multi-level sorting and displaying. However, they write their data to the system's paging space, rather than to memory (internal tables use memory). For this reason, field-groups are only appropriate for processing large lists (e.g. over 50,000 records). If you have large lists, you should work with the systems administrator to decide the maximum amount of RAM your program should use, and from that, calculate how much space your lists will use. Then you can decide whether to write the data to memory or swap space. See the Fieldgroups ABAP example.
Use as many table keys as possible in the WHERE part of your select statements.
Whenever possible, design the program to access a relatively constant number of records (for instance, if you only access the transactions for one month, then there probably will be a reasonable range, like 1200-1800, for the number of transactions inputted within that month). Then use a SELECT A B C INTO TABLE ITAB statement.
Get a good idea of how many records you will be accessing. Log into your productive system, and use SE80 -> Dictionary Objects (press Edit), enter the table name you want to see, and press Display. Go To Utilities -> Table Contents to query the table contents and see the number of records. This is extremely useful in optimizing a program's memory allocation.
Try to make the user interface such that the program gradually unfolds more information to the user, rather than giving a huge list of information all at once to the user.
Declare your internal tables using OCCURS NUM_RECS, where NUM_RECS is the number of records you expect to be accessing. If the number of records exceeds NUM_RECS, the data will be kept in swap space (not memory).
Use SELECT A B C INTO TABLE ITAB whenever possible. This will read all of the records into the itab in one operation, rather than repeated operations that result from a SELECT A B C INTO ITAB... ENDSELECT statement. Make sure that ITAB is declared with OCCURS NUM_RECS, where NUM_RECS is the number of records you expect to access.
If the number of records you are reading is constantly growing, you may be able to break it into chunks of relatively constant size. For instance, if you have to read all records from 1991 to present, you can break it into quarters, and read all records one quarter at a time. This will reduce I/O operations. Test extensively with GET RUN TIME when using this method.
Know how to use the 'collect' command. It can be very efficient.
Use the SELECT SINGLE command whenever possible.
Many tables contain totals fields (such as monthly expense totals). Use these avoid wasting resources by calculating a total that has already been calculated and stored.
verify if it can give an idea to the question.

Measument point - Counter - Backwards - Over flow limit value ?

Hi ,
I 'm trying to use measurement point, the requirement is i need to start from 20000 hours and go on decreasing the life of the part and when i reach 1000 hours i need the system to tell me so. i'm not able to update the upper and lower limits in reverse, neither i'm knowing what to put for over flow counter reading. Please help.
Regards,
Vivek

HI Experts,
I am looking for information relating to setting up backward counters to schedule Maintenance Plans. When I try to create a Maintenance Plan linked to a Backward Counter, I receive the error "Only counters that run forwards can be entered - Error IP124" . What am I doing wrong? How can I use backwards counters with maintenance plans?
We have several clocks that count down the hours til the next major or minor pm is due. The technician manually records the time from these clocks. Worst case is that we can subtract the counter time from a constant if we have to, but I'd like to have the technician enter in the clock time directly with out any manipulation needed.
Thanks in advance,
Please open a thread for your specific issue

Page over flow - please turn over

Is it possible to add text "please turn over" if the page overflows to another page?
I have designed an In design document that get variable data filled from an external source. When this happens the page may or may not overflow to a new page depending on the data that goes in the document.
I want to is to add text "please turn over" only if the page over flows? How do I do this? Can this done in In design? Page Overflow works fine. Not sure how to add a conditional text. Is there a way to check if page overflows in design?

Pages do not overflow in InDesign, textframes do.
Beware of terminology issues. In scripting, textframes have a property "overflows", which indicates there is "overset" text in the frame, that is, there is not room enough in that particular text frame for all of the text and it does not thread to a next frame. That last part is, by the way, the indicator you are looking for here: if a text frame "nextTextFrame" is valid, then there is a possibility text runs from the current into that next frame.
It's only a possibility because it is perfectly valid and possible (and often true) that this next frame is totally empty, so you might want to double-check on that.

for example your milometer will only show 9999 miles ,once this counter has reached overflow occurs ,i.e. the counter starts to count upwards from 0000 again
Annual estimate is used for scheduling purpose for performance based scheduling and for multiple counter plan ,
Multiple counter plan
The system uses the current date as the start date and automatically calculates the planned dates based on the maintenance cycles, the scheduling parameters, the estimated annual performance and the last counter readings
Performance based
The system automatically calculates the planned date and call date based on the maintenance packages, the scheduling parameters, the estimated annual performance and the counter reading at the start of the cycle

Stack over after Calling a module pool N times

Hi Experts,
There is a module pool 'A' which exports to memory a table and executes a CALL TRANSACTION 'B' (another module pool).
After saving program B, I must execute it again 'n times' without returning to caller program 'A', until I choose BACK.
So I wrote, WHEN 'SAVE'...CALL TRANSACTION 'B', in order to save-call itself-save-call itself-etc.
The problem is that after calling itself 5 times, the stack is over and it leaves program.
I tried using LEAVE TO CURRENT TRANSACTION, but it doesn't works because when I save B it goes out from program to SAP menu, instead of recalling itself.
Is there any way of doing this or deleting the stack?
Please help me out in this.
Thanks in Advance,
Lilian.

Hi,
Instead of using the Call screen NNNN, use the Leave to scree NNN, then the stock will not overflow

Data Over flow in Reports 10g for the report U.S Sales Tax Report

Hi,
we are running the "U.S Sales Tax Report" in which we are facing the data overflow as an issue. Do any body have an idea how to fix this type of issue.
Thank you,
BOD

Just to save time for others who have the same requirement , use below, fill the structure with sales order and other details. Leave the posnr blank if you need document flow , else fill the posnr if it is item level.
CALL DIALOG 'RV_DOCUMENT_FLOW'
        EXPORTING
             VBCO6      FROM VBCO6
             MAKT-MAKTX FROM SPACE
             KNA1-KUNNR FROM kunnr2000
             KNA1-NAME1 FROM name
             MAKT-MATNR FROM SPACE
             IVKORG     FROM VKORG
             IVTWEG     FROM VTWEG.
No custom screen required, no tree control required, no coding required except that you need to call this at right place in your module pool/ report etc. SAP internally uses this for display in SAPMV45A.
Hope it helps.
