printf problem

hi,
I am getting this unique prb. When I put more printfs my code is
working fine if I remove some it crashes. Any suggestions y it is so ?
I am working on PSOS.

Not so unique. It sounds like you're running out of RAM and have a wild pointer
that you're writing through, clobbering your code. With more printfs in place,
you happen to be writing somewhere that clobbers something else.

Also watch out for the problem of printing something too large (e.g., 64 bytes)
using printf, as it can lock up the system, or at least the I/O.

Hi,

This is probably a stack problem. printfs can mask them. Check
for parameter mismatches in function calls.
