I have a syntactically correct Scala source file holding a huge data structure. The code looks like this:
object ChiSquareAlpha
{
val ChiSquareToAlphaIndexTable = Map(
1 -> Array(0.00016,0.00063,0.00393,0.01579,0.06418,0.14847,0.45494,1.07419,1.64237,2.70554,3.84146,5.41189,6.63490,10.82757),
.. 9998 other entries ..
10000 -> Array(9673.95,9711.71,9768.53,9819.19,9880.79,9925.36,9999.33,10073.68,10118.82,10181.66,10233.75,10292.58,10331.93,10442.73)
)
}
So you can see, the object holds a huge lookup table, a Map[Int, Array[Double]] with 10000 entries. Compilation takes about a minute, but finishes without warnings or errors. But at runtime it fails with:
java.lang.ClassFormatError: Invalid this class index 4280 in constant pool in class file bm/statistic/ChiSquareAlpha$

I tested this with scala 2.9.2 and scala 2.10. Same result. When the object is much smaller - let's say 500 map entries - the program works. So I guess scala is unable to deal with such big files. Any solution proposals?
