Maximum Parameter Length

Post by Salegueule »

Hi,

I have done some research but did not found the answer.

What is the maximum char length that can be use in a string parameter?

Ideally no limit. Still there could be a constrain on buffer/ Physical memory, to handle extremely large volume.
Impossible doesn't mean 'it is not possible' actually means... 'NOBODY HAS DONE IT SO FAR'

There is no limit imposed by the software. There will be a limit imposed by the amount of memory available to the process.
