8.04 and oWnd:end( )

There was no resolution to this problem actually posted.

An SDI window ( main ), after closing the application, gets an error ( Windows Vista ) that says the application has stopped working and its checking for a solution.

Of course, it is a true message, but it was an intentional close and thus it should not appear.

This is a new behavior in 8.04. It worked fine in 8.03.

I did try the oWnd:PostMsg(WM_CLOSE) suggestion but that also generates the same error message from Vista

Antonio, I use xharbour 1.0.0 (official - not from CVS) and I still get the same error.

Can you produce version of FVH 8.04 for xHarbour 1.0.0?

I can't use xHarbour from CVS, becouse my SQLLIB (called Mediator) doesn't work with newest xharbour.

Best regards
R.

Robert, Tim,

Yes, we are going to produce a FWH 8.04 build with the previous xHarbour that we used for FWH 8.03. Not the cvs current one.

Antonio,

I'm using the last "stable" build ... xHarbour Nov 2007. I do have access to the more recent builds but there have been suggestions of problems, and there is always the warning that they are betas with bugs to be expected. I know that the Nov. build has bugs ... what doesn't, but it was the last stable release and it has served me fairly well.

Thanks. I did put in that nil function you wanted but that doesn't help.

Antonio - with FWH 8.03 you used xHarbour 1.1.0 (beta).
My opinion is to produce FW software with official stable version (1.0.0-november 07).
Why:
Becouse third-party libraries are produced this way.
I want to buy next FTDN, but I know that differences beetwen FWH and my libraries will grow.
I asked producers of Mediator about using CVS. They answer was easy - we support ONLY stable official versions. If next stable version will be publish, they'll do new version of library.

Regards
R.

To All

Reading from the xHarb NG .. it appears that a recent CVS build had the GPF on exit ..

It has been fixed.

Robert,

Both Harbour/xHarbour current SVN/CVS source code are highly stable, with just some few little exceptions when a bug is introduced (and uses to be fixed real soon).

We can't wait five or more months to deliver a new Harbour/xHarbour build as along that time there are lots of fixes, enhancements, and new features.

This time we had the bad luck to get a bug, but as Rick has commented, it has already been solved.

Did you upload new version (oWND:End() bug free) FWH 8.04 on FTDN server?

Is this xHarbour the latest CVS ? Is the FWH 8.04 built with the latest CVS of xHarbour ?

The problem extends

OK ...
I downloaded the latest build of 8.04
I have xHarbour.com November build ( last stable release )

Now, the application GPF's on startup.
I did a complete rebuild !

Tim,

Please try to use the new FiveHMX.lib that you have rebuilt and FiveHCM.lib from 8.03, thanks

I'm waiting for answer from Tim too. I got the same error.
I came back to FTDN 8.03 (for me the best stable version of FWH with xHarbour 1.0.0).
