Yeah, that's what I was about to ask.. why not use the routine that I
coded in YAJLR4 (yajl_stdin_load_tree) -- but, I see you found that.
If you do want to do it yourself instead of using my routine... if the
problem is simply that you're running out of automatic storage, well...
then don't use automatic storage, use heap storage. To do that, define
your variable so that it is based on a pointer, and then use the %ALLOC
BIF to allocate memory to it. Once you've done that, you can use
QtmhRdStin (or QtmhWrStout as needed) to work with the variable. Just
make sure you use DEALLOC to free up the memory when you're done.
Allocated memory comes from the heap rather than from automatic storage,
so shouldn't be a problem.
If you need to exceed the 16mb (approx) limit of single-level storage,
instead of using %ALLOC/DEALLOC, you can also use the system APIs to
allocate/free memory in teraspace. This does NOT require changing your
program's storage model to teraspace, but still allows the larger memory
size.
But if you're happy with using my routine in YAJLR4, use that... then
you don't have to worry about dynamic memory.
Writing it to an IFS file would work too... but would be slower, and is
overkill in this case.
