Francis,
Are you checking the return value of Exec or Intuition calls? Are
you making any assumptions about the machine configuration? What is the
GURU meditation message?
Don
Don,
As I've said to David, _I'M_ not getting gurus.
I thought I was checking or using all the values returned by system
functions, but I might have missed a few. All I can say on that point is
that the area of the code that seems to be crashing the machine does not
make any call to system functions.
I don't make assumptions (as far as I can tell–I'm following the rules in
the RKM) about the state of the machine. I initialize those things I use, I
check the retun values of OpenLibrary()s and memory allocation, etc.
But the problem still remains, it runs on my machine OK, but erratically on
older machine with less than 1M of chip ram. And I'm not hogging chip ram,
at the most I'm using 210K.
Now if only I could reproduce the problem on my machine.
