Thanks Rajeev for your reply. I don’t have the exact number as of now. It’s definitely more than 1000. Is there a hard coded limit?

The core dump is as follows: #0 0x0000000000408ec3 in parse_args () #1 0x0000000000409f26 in HYD_uii_mpx_get_parameters () #2 0x000000000040397a in main () If I reduce the number of arguments then I don’t see the crash. Is it a known issue? Regards Tarun
