- Sub: Problem with 2.0b9 Calc sample
-
- I have just installed MacApp 2.0b9 and am having trouble with the Calc sample.
-
- (1) After installing the distribution, I built each of the sample applications
- using the simple 'mabuild' commands given in the release notes. All of them
- built without errors, and all of them appeared to work fine except for Calc.
- Every time I ran it, Calc would fail during startup. It entered the MacApp
- debugger just after the splash screen appeared, with the complaint "Object not
- from our Zone" from 'FailNonObject' during 'TEvtHandler.DoCreateViews'. This
- is the same symptom described by Curtis Faith in his message of 2-Aug-89.
-
- (2) On a hunch I deleted all Calc's object files etc and rebuilt it, and I got
- a version that appears to work. I didn't make any changes, I just rebuilt from
- the same source.
-
- (3) Later, I decided to build a -NoDebug version of Calc. I did this with the
- command 'MABuild -NoDebug {MAExamples}Calc:Calc'. The build produced a "File
- was not needed for link" message about "ToolLib.o" but otherwise was
- uneventful. But the resulting nondebug Calc crashes during startup, usually
- with an address error, a corrupted application heap, and the pc pointing into a
- broken block that may once have been a code resource.
-
- (4) Because it helped once before, I deleted all the nondebug Calc object files
- etc and rebuilt it. Same results exactly.
-
-
- Does anyone know what is going on here? I did this on a vanilla SE running
- System 6.0.2 and MPW 3.0 final. I never had any such problems with previous
- versions of MacApp.
