DM6435, boot image generation, GenAIS.pl out of memory

Massimo

I have a problem with the GenAIS.pl script used to create the .bin file for the flash from our .out file.
Currently, we have a 38MB .out file from the compilation/linking of our project. Until yesterday the GenAIS worked well, and it created a 14.5MB .bin file.

Today perl.exe crashes during the execution of the script, and the cause seems to be an “out of memory” problem.
In fact the perl.exe process has always used 2GB of ram, but I found that 2GB of memory is its limit; after that the process crashes.

We used Windows 7 and XP, with 8 and 4 GB of ram.
I have perl 5.8.3 and I have tried perl 5.10.x, as suggested here http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/GenAIS -> Prerequisites, but without success.
I have tried to use newer perl versions, even the (5.16.x) x64 one, but they are not successful in understanding the script (a lot of errors).

What can we do? It's a blocking problem.

Thanks

Massimo
