A screen capture is a bit excessive, is it not?
I'm not sure which shell you're using. Probably it's /bin/sh, which under Cygwin is "ash." Under BASH the diagnostic is a bit more enlightening:
% ulimit -s 2046
% ulimit -s 4096 bash: ulimit: stack size: cannot modify limit: Invalid argument
This is the real answer. The system call to which the ulimit shell built-in delegates its work is not implemented in Cygwin.
I believe link-time is the only way to override the default stack allotment is during compilation (or linking, as the case may be): E.g. (from a message by Gerrit P. Haase, subject "Re: increase stacksize" sent Wed, 17 Jul 2002 15:54:42 +0200):
gcc -Wl,--stack,8388608 -o your.exe your.source.c

Hi all,
I have just started to use cygwin and I got the problem about stack size because it was "stack overflow" when I run ODE (simulation) . I already tried to increase the stack size but it didn't work. Anyway, you can see my problem from following picture.
Please tell me , how to increase the stack size or to make it unlimited.
Thank you P.Manoonpong
