Mistake at addition of the user commands in the menu

Mistake at addition of the user commands in the menu:

Code: Select all

Unknown identifier in line 2005 of the menu file: em_2001

Is number of users commands by 2000 items? If yes, why? Can it be increased? Add please still !!!

[ghisler(Author)]

Yes, it's limited to 2000 commands, sorry. Currently there are no plans to increase that.

it's limited to 2000 commands

Is that for both usercmd.ini and and wcmd_xxx.ini in total or can the number be increased by using both files?

[ghisler(Author)]

That's for all user-defined (em_xyz) commands together. It cannot be increased by splitting to two files.

Sorry but I don't understand any reason for such limits. Or TC uses static internal array for keeping usercommands in memory?

[petermad]

It seems to me that TC reads the user commands from file and does not keep it in memory, because if you change a user command manually in the usercmd.ini or the wcmd_xxx.ini file with a text editor, TC recognizes the change without having to be restarted. Unlike when wincmd.ini is changed the same way.

So a 2000 command limit doesn't seem to be necessary.

They are loaded into a fixed array of pointers to the strings in some functions, which is usually much faster than a dynamic list. The limit is 4 times the number of internal commands, so I thought that no one would ever reach it...

There is no speed difference if you create an array with dynamic size. You do not need to create a list...

Agreed. Dynamic arrays usually have possibility to set reserved size - so it can be used as first-time limit (it user exceeds this limit, he will need to wait while array is reallocated).

I would like to know what is the purpose of so much user defined commands ?

Here my files for the menu

rghost.ru/download/1837542/89416bb262c49c11ab2fb95b6a8b34b2bbb0c6bf/Total.zip

For someone it will seem much, but I dream of increase with 2000 up to 4000
