so, it might have happened that ruud went to his vacation in such a hurry that he accidentally posted the 4.11 instead of the new beta ?

sadly there is no new commands or functions on which to check it

nah - probably just forgot to increment the build number - real easy to do [Wink] - thats a habit that i've learned the hard way - as soon as i post a new build - first thing i do is go back into the code and increment the build number. i still think 4.12 is pretty darn clean.

to check if shawn is right with the kixforms-timer-leak, you, hoby could place empty function in slider-udf...

this way that leak should not happen in anyway...

ok, I did a test script:
code:
$x=0

Function slide()
$x=kbhit()
EndFunction

do $=execute(slide) until $x

notice, it has nothing to do with kixforms...

it's been running 4 mins now and memory usage is 62 megs and growing!

Good troubleshooting. It's starting to look like EXECUTE may have a problem.

Guys, your right !!! Huge leak in the Execute() function! Any non-null string used in execute doesn't get de-allocated.

break on

do $n = execute(" ") until 1=0

exit 1

It's kind of strange though both Richard & Madruga seem to be executing very large loops while doing validation of Golf24 scripts that contain "executes".

Right now at home, I am running a script that uses only integer math to solve golf24 & it uses not 1 but 5 call to the execute function. (I do this for elimination of brackets) I am looping through all possible solutions so I will see if it bombs.

From kirm at - posted 24. September 2002 21:47

how you know it's slider?

it could be any of the linking codes...

hoby's post does not show any special error why it did fail.
only thing understandable would be network outage/failure on short period...

what comes to kents post the topic having quotes:
GUICopy() - Use the Animated 'Copying Files' Progress Dialog (Page 2)

might have an influence...

still, my checker has been running for a while and it has not failed... on neither of the posts.

also, after 1 hour of processor time and 18 hour runtime the memory consumption is back again in 9M!
don't understand as this is normal...
when it flushes, or is this w2k feature?

well, mine got only to 760k, but anyway...

I just tried to install checker on out of the box test machine and the installer failed to install the dll and then whole system went crazy...

what comes to that memory thingie, I think it has been there for a while, but as no-one has been complaining about it, ruud hasn't realized it or he haven't had any reason to change it.
after all, cleaning the memory buffers takes time when compared just flushing it on exit...
