GOAL:
What causes SYSTEM ERROR: Out of run-time segment descriptors. (2880)?
GOAL:
What are run-time segment descriptors?
GOAL:
What does error 2880 mean?
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 7.x
HP-UX
FIX:
The error "Out of run-time segment descriptors. (2880)" means all of the possible "slots" (i.e. r-code segments) have been used.
A r-code file consists of segments, and these segments are managed individually at run time. Each segment is assigned a segment descriptor entry from the segment descriptor table. This error occurs if PROGRESS has run out of room in the segment descriptor table for the next segment of a r-code file.
In Version 7, there are approximately 2,700 "slots". The following take up a slot:
- Each active (running or persistent) procedure.
- Each defined internal procedure within each (running or persistent) procedure.
This limit has been removed in Progress version 8 and above.
