-
- Q1: I am using the mouse module in my programs, but after my
- program exits, my machine crashes mysteriously if I move the
- mouse or press a mouse button.
-
- A1: If you have used the mouse module to install your own
- mouse event handling routine (with MS_swapIntSub), you must
- ensure that MS_exit() is called upon program termination to
- de-install this event handling mechanism. The event module
- ensures that MS_exit() is called upon program termination
- when it is installed with EVT_init().
-

-
- Q2: When I try to write programs using the event handling library
- using the Borland C++ Integrated Development Environment (IDE),
- my system crashes when single stepping my program.
-
- A2: There is a bug in the Borland C++ IDE that stops it from working
- properly with programs that take of the keyboard interrupt. Thus
- you cannot debug programs that use the event library under the
- IDE, but you can use the standalone debugger.
-
- In order to support debugging under the IDE, a special debugging
- event library is included in the distribution (see the read.me
- file) that will work under the IDE.
