Summary:                    Ncc crushes during the compilation process
Description: 
If you speak Russian let me known ;)

I installed nemerle-0.9.2.msi on my OS ( W2k with SP4 ).
After i try  to compile simple program ( like "Hello World" ) the ncc
crached with message dialog (you can see this dialog in the attached
file).

PS My English is not very well ;)

Can you try to compile a program under console (cmd.exe, or preferably
cygwin) and paste its output?

We need to have some more detailed description of what happened, like
stack trace etc.

NCC crushes without producing any output. There are no more messages, only
PostMortalDialog.

I have intalled MS Visual Studio 2005 PDC, but after i uninstall them, and
install .Net 2.0, MSXML 6 - nothing changed.

You can try submitting this issue for Microsoft, maybe they will be able to
help.  This seems like an assert in the MS runtime...

I have similar error: 
no matter what I am trying to compile, I always get
"System.OutOfMemoryException".

Only ncc gives me that bug.

I use nemerle-0.9.2.msi from nemerle.org

OS: Windows NT 5.0.2195 Server SP4 PL
CPU: Celeron (Tualatin) 1.1 GHz, no overclocking
RAM: 512 MB SDRAM (checked for errors :))
.NET 2.0.50727 Framework + SDK
MS Visual C# & Visual Basic, both 2005 Express
SharpDevelop 2.0 build 1135

code (from Nemerle docs):

class Greeter {
  public static Main () : void
  {
    def name = System.Console.ReadLine ();
    System.Console.WriteLine ("Hello " + name);
  }
}

I have same error (OutOfMemoryException) then compiling anything with ncc.
I have reproduced this on several machines with Win2000 and WinXP.
Compiling with

ncc -stack-size:15 hello.n

works well, but both

ncc hello.n
and
ncc -stack-size:16 hello.n

crashes ncc.
I replaced that line in ncc/main.n:
          stack_kilos = 16 * 1024 (line 62)
by
          stack_kilos = 15 * 1024
and this also made ncc work.
Running ncc under debuger shows that exception goes from Thread
constructor:

def thread = System.Threading.Thread (main_with_catching, stack_kilos *
1024);
(ncc/main.n, line 63)

I tweaked the default stack size. Could you try binaries from
http://nemerle.org/svn/nemerle/trunk/boot/
?
