Hello All,
First off - I'm not sure if this is the correct group to post this
question on, but this group seems to be about the most technical, so I'm
trying it here <g>.
BACKGROUND:
I have an application where the reports are stored in DLLs. The only
thing that is getting passed to the DLLs is:
const ReportHistoryID: Integer;
Configure: Boolean;
UserActivated: Boolean;
var ReportParameter: string;
UserName: string;
Password: string;
LogFileName: string;
AOwner: TComponent;
ApplicationHandle: THandle;
var sError: string
Note: here is the top of the uses section:
uses
ShareMem,
So - sharemem is getting used and it is the first unit.
Second note: Application.Handle is getting set back to zero when the
library unloads.
PROBLEM:
*occasionally* the application will just disappear - POOF! GONE! Out
like a fat kid playing dodge ball <g>. It doesn't raise an error. Nor
does it get to the finally block in the dpr. The log file looks the
same as it does if I go to task manager and kill it. It just stops
processing and goes away.
Note: this seems to only happen when the application is NOT being run
inside of the Delphi IDE (ie. Debug mode)
QUESTION:
What might make an application do this? I can't even think of or find a
scenario where this would happen.
ENVIRONMENT INFO:
OS: XP
Delphi 7
Database: Advantage 7.1
Processor: Intel (has happened on both Pentium and Celeron chips)
Thanks in advance...
David
