Crash - possible path problems?

Post by theWolf » Thu Jun 23, 2005 4:34 pm

Hello Upcase,

Looks like you are making great progress. :D

I created a new project thus:
Project Options
Project output - Output creates a wxDialog
Code options - Generate XRC code (both radios checked)

Projectname: R1
Output path : c:\Projects\wx\rapid\r1
Author: theWolf

Selected "File|generate code"

CRASH :o

(Rapid created another folder under the one I had wanted
"c:\Projects\wx\rapid\r1\r1" - the errors reported before the program exited were; a general protection fault, and could not find the path to the header file r1.h)

I tried another attempt where I saved the project before selecting "File|generate code" - result was a single error: can't find path but no general protection fault. The program exited here too.


I hope this feedback helps. :)

Best regards.

Hi!
Thanks for your reply, I'll check that!

It's a bit strange though... Try the following:
1. Enter an output path
2. enter a projectname

wxRapid should then create a dir like PATH\PROJECTNAME and be able to work on it.

Hi upCASE,

very good project.
But the new version 0.9.1 doesnt show if started on Win98SE.
The process runs (pview) but no windows displayed (only short).

Hi!
Checking right now (glad I got my Virtual PC :D). Hang on..

EDIT: You're right :shock: :shock: :shock:
Seems like a problem with the docking windows... I'm trying to get rid of it and put out a new version soon.

Ok!
So, this was a really really weird bug...
It was in no way related to the docking windows like I thought at first, but to the code view windows. I used to create the window on startup and hide them for fast display later on if needed. Creating these windows in fact lead to not showing the main frame. To be honest I don't know why...

Anyway: I fixed that bug and tested it on Windows 98SE (Virtual PC). Cross fingers that it works now :D

Hi!
Oh, oh, oh.... stupid upCASE made a stupid mistake...

No, really, the setup is f** up. The whole thing won't generate a line of code, juts because I messed it up... Give me some time, I'll repack and update the setup. I'll post when I'm done.

Ok...
Now, I hope for the last time :D, an updated setup was uploaded. I just tested it, downloaded it to my Windows 98SE machine, installed it and it seems to work.

Have fun and a nice weekend!

Phew... :D
Glad to hear that!

Same procedure as every friday: Off for the weekend. Feel free to post your comments, I may observe them, but it's more likely that I won't answer till monday and bugfixes won't be released over the weekend.
As I'm on a trip to London next week, a new version is more likely to come out next month.

Hi!
At the moment I'm pretty busy with other things and don't have the time for developing it any further. When there's time, there will be an update. There still is much on my todo list :D
