I too have experienced this loader limitation problem.

The bug appears related to the amount of geometry, not the number of files. My
crashes occured after loading ~38 files.

A temporary workaround: LoadFltMode( PFFLT_COMBINELODS, FALSE ) seems postpone
the crash; I can now get ~80 files loaded.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hi everybody,

I am looking for the limitation of the Loadflt function.
When loading more than 17 files .flt the program core dump without any message
 the stack is :
MyFunction, LoadFlt, convTree, convTree, convTree, convTree, convTree,
convTree, makeGeometry, makeGeode, pfNewGeode, pfBuffer

When all the data base is in one file everything is OK.

I can have a test program,

Any help is welcome.
