- I put up a message yesterday about unexplained Borland Pascal 7.0
- (windows) debugger crashes. I have localized the problem in a
- reproducible manner and wonder if anyone else can reproduce this:
-
- The problem is with the GlobalCompact(-1) function running in the
- debugger. To test this, use the BSCRLAPP program found in the
- ...\examples\win\owl directory. This program shows how to use AHINCR
- to load a bitmap of size > 64K.
- The call to globalcompact(-1) is made in this program. I am not
- sure why -1 is used as the variable, as the docs don't mention this
- option. In fact, the debugger works fine with the call
- globalcompact(0).
- Anyway, when I run this program with the call to
- globalcompact(-1), no breakpoints are recognized after the function
- call. The application continues to run, seemingly normally, but the
- debugger crashes when I try to exist the application. This does not
- occur if the call is deleted, or made to glocalcompact(0).
