C++ 20 increase stack size
By wraith_11, history, 2 years ago, In English

codeforces uses this command to compile C++ Codes g++ -Wall -Wextra -Wconversion -static -DONLINE_JUDGE -Wl,--stack=268435456 -O2 -std=c++20 <source> . When I am using this command on my Macbook Air M1, it's giving me the error unknown option: --stack=268435456. Can anyone tell me how do I increase the stack size for c++ codes during compilation on a Macbook, I am using gcc-homebrew 11.2.0

My compilation code is g++ -Wconversion -Davik_local -Wl,--stack=268435456 -O2 -std=c++20 Thank You!

This command which you are mentioning is for windows systems, for linux based systems use ulimit -s unlimited. This gives unlimited stack size but if you want limited ones like 256 MB then use the command ulimit -s <size in kb>.

      You dont use it like that!

      In the shell first use
      ulimit -s unlimited
      and then
      g++ -Wconversion -Davik_local -O2 -std=c++20
