Re: [DUG]: DLLs

[Robert Martin]

We pass strings but also use ShareMem so I dont think that is the problem.  I definately think it is related to the freeing of items but due to its infrequency I sustpect it is more a timing issue... form still freeing when dll is cloising?  We are using modal forms with Action = caFree could that be the problem?     Robert Martin Software Engineer Wild Software Ltd ----- Original Message ----- From: Phil Middlemiss To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Sent: Wednesday, September 05, 2001 2:42 PM Subject: Re: [DUG]: DLLs This kind of exception is horrible. I've had it a couple of times, in different circumstances, so while I can't comment on your exact situation maybe I can at least point you in the right direction.   When this has happened to me, it usually boils down to something being accessed that has already been freed. For example, a form that was created with Application.CreateForm was freed manually elsewhere and then the app raised an exception when it exited. Perhaps you have code that is trying to reference the form after it is freed? Alternatively, this type of error also manifests sometimes if you are passing strings back and forth with the DLL and you don't have sharemem as the first unit in the uses clause.   Maybe helpful, maybe not.   Phil. ----- Original Message ----- From: Robert Martin To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Sent: Friday, August 31, 2001 2:23 PM Subject: [DUG]: DLLs We have a situation where sometimes (intermittantly) our app crashes after closing a form opened from a DLL.  I have traced the code to the FreeLibrary call which is within a try .. except but the exceptoin is not fireing.  I can step through and see the app call FreeLibrary but once I exit the procedure (containing the freeLibrary) the exception occurs.   Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.     Robert Martin Software Engineer Wild Software Ltd
