ahhh... that's more than i've seen before... i opened the stack window after my app started and it was just sitting there... then i clicked on the [connect] button which does the database connection, data retrieval and connection.close... here's what i got... #0 KERNEL32!GetComputerNameW at :0 #1 KERNEL32!GetPrivateProfileStructA at :0 #2 ?? at :0 #3 ?? at :0 isn't that nice... no filenames listed :? i get the same if i build it as a win32 GUI app (-WG)... i'm not sure what debugging options i should turn on on the compiler options -> linking tab... the default was only display line numbers in RT error backtraces... since our previous discussion, i've also turned on generate debug into for gdb (-g) but nothing else... > Anyway, unless you are willing to spent time on debugging the issue your > self, and go into the depth of the Connector code, this will probably be > of little help. yeah, it does seem that way but someone's gotta do it... i mean, damn... the code is used in the wiki as workable demo apps and it doesn't work as posted... that's not saying that the demo code posted is broken but that the components used in the demo code have some sort of problem somewhere... so, its gotta be fixed... > If you get the stack backtrace you can mail it and hope some one knows > about... hummm... dunno anything about how to do that... this is all so very very different than the TP6/BP6 and TP7/BP7 IDE style... not only am i stuck trying to learn the new environment but also the new coding techniques and now the new debugging stuffs... i ain't as young as i used to be... i definitely can't sit and beat my head on this stuff for 48+ hours at a stretch like i used to do back in my 20's and earlier :? -- NOTE: NEW EMAIL ADDRESS!! _\/ (@@) Waldo Kitty, Waldo's Place USA __ooO_( )_Ooo_____________________ telnet://bbs.wpusa.dynip.com _|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____ http://www.wpusa.dynip.com ____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|____ ftp://ftp.wpusa.dynip.com _|_Eat_SPAM_to_email_me!_YUM!__|_____ wkitty42 -at- windstream.net --- avast!
