Hello,
I have a big problem with Scintilla hanging when lots of windows are
open. This is tested on 3 different machines (all with Win XP) with
the 1.6.6 dll:
If i open 25 large (full-screen) Scintilla windows, then go to the
first few windows already opened then they no longer respond (they do
not accept text or refresh). Don't take 25 as a fixed number, i just
tried it with Scite and it took 45 instances before it started hanging
(although they weren't all full-screen, which makes me think it is
related to the physical display area). No text needs to be entered
into any of the windows (although obviously i entered a few characters
to test if it was still working). It's not just with Scite, i've tried
it in several other Scintilla apps and also with my own code and they
always hang when enough windows have been opened.
It is odd that CreateWindowEx_ continues to return a valid handle to
the new Scintilla windows but it is the old windows that lock up. If
there is some sort of resource problem it would be better if new
instances would fail to open and return a zero handle so that i could
relay a "max windows opened" message instead of the current situation.
Does anyone know what is going on or how to fix this? If this has been
covered before (i couldn't see anything) please point me in the
correct direction :-D
Thank you very much,
Mat
