[Boost-users] multi_array with large dimensions crashes

Hi all, I have just started to use boost libs. I am trying to create a large float array (mandatory for my purpose). it works fine till certain limit, but crashes above that. I think it about allocating memory in the stack. My code is like this typedef boost::multi_array<float,3> array_type; typedef array_type::index index; array_type Array(boost::extents[xDim][yDim][zDim]);//500,300,400 for instance Can some one help me to resolve this? Thanks Jothy
