Maximum size of array and variable??

[skyy]

Hi.. what is the maximum size of an array and variable?

With the following declaration:

my $size;
my @rx_array;

what is the maximum number that $size can hold?
what is the maximum number of elements @rx_array can hold?

Thanks!

The maximum size is only limited by the available amount of memory the computer has. Perl itself places no limitations on the size of arrays or scalars.

Thanks for the info!

But does apache server limit the amount of "Post" data?
when i try to upload data more than 100MB it gives me error or hang there.

I believe Apache can be set to limit post data. The CGI module also can be set to limit data.
