20496 - SAS® Information Map Libname Engine might generate "ERROR: Write Access Violation in Task"

Problem Note 20496: SAS® Information Map Libname Engine might generate "ERROR: Write Access Violation in Task"

SAS Information Maps that contain many filters might generate the error message:

ERROR: Write Access Violation in Task [ Contents (2) )

This is a memory allocation issue. Each filter uses a small amount of memory. When there is a high number of filters, the Information Maps engine is not allocating enough memory. Currently the only workaround is to reduce the number of filters.
