 Posted: Mon Jul 21, 2025 1:36 pm Post subject: Winop@ / %pl[external] |
 |
|
Paul,
A second one for you to look at.
I have been developing an application, which occasionally fails at run time when updating a number of graphics regions via %pl[external].
In the program below reproduces this failure. There are two %gr regions and two buttons.
The callbacks associated with the buttons generate some random numbers and these are plotted on the %gr regions using %pl[external].
Button 1 always succeeds, button 2 *sometimes� fails, generating a runtime %pl error �too many colours� or crashing with an access violation.
The only difference between the callback functions is that for button 1 the %pl + options are passed as a single string to winio@, while with button 2 winop@ calls are used.
When the access violation occurs in update2_cb, it is always at the first call to winop@ for drawing the second graph, i.e. immediately after iw = select_graphics_object@(uid_gr2)
Ken

There is a fault in ClearWin+ that I have fixed but there is a second fault that is deep inside the GDI+ library. There is no apparent fault in ClearWin+.
I will see if I can find way around this. |

| At the moment I can find no explanation nor fix for the second failure that I mentioned. There appears to be something in the context that the GDI+ library cannot handle. |

Thanks for looking at this Paul. I did wonder if I was pushing Clearwin+ beyond is intended capability.
The modified update2_cb in the code below, seems to work correctly, and I can easily incorporate this in the larger program, while retaining the pattern of the previous calls to winop@
| Code: |
module test
use clrwin
implicit none
integer, parameter :: n = 10
real*8 :: x1(10), y1(10), x2(10), y2(10)
integer :: uid_gr1=1001, uid_gr2=1002, gw=600,gh=200
contains
subroutine iface
integer:: iw
iw = winio@('%mn[Exit]&','exit')
iw = winio@('Press buttons sequentially in turn.%nl&')
iw = winio@('Button 2 no longer fails.%nl&')
iw = winio@('%2.1ob%`gr&',gw,gh,uid_gr1)
iw = winio@('%ff%`gr%cb&',gw,gh,uid_gr2)
iw = winio@('%^bt[Update 1]&',update1_cb)
iw = winio@('%nl%^bt[Update 2]%cb', update2_cb)
end subroutine iface
integer function update1_cb()
integer :: iw
call new_data
iw = select_graphics_object@(uid_gr1)
iw = winio@('%pl[n_graphs=1,x_array,symbol=6,colour=red,link=none,external]',n, x1,y1)
iw = select_graphics_object@(uid_gr2)
iw = winio@('%pl[n_graphs=1,x_array,symbol=6,colour=blue,link=none,external]',n, x2,y2)
update1_cb = 1
end function update1_cb
integer function update2_cb()

| This issue has now been completely fixed. The faults were in the ClearWin+ library relating to %pl[external]. The fixes will be in the next release of the DLLs. |
