Compiler input
Pragma equivalent
None.
Purpose
Specifies the number of nested include files to be allowed in your source program.
When the NESTINC compiler option is in effect, you can specify the maximum limit of nested include files.
When the NONESTINC compiler option is in effect, you are specifying NESTINC(255).
Defaults
NESTINC(255)
Parameters
- num
- You can specify a limit of any integer from 0 to SHRT_MAX, which indicates the maximum limit, as defined in the header file LIMITS.H. To specify the maximum limit, use an asterisk (*). If you specify an invalid value, the compiler issues a warning message, and uses the default limit, which is 255.
Usage
If you use heavily nested include files, your program requires more storage to compile.
Predefined macros
None.
