BOINC reports and displays exit status on the user web, typically, in a negative 64-bit hexadecimal format. Today's trending number is
0xffffffffc000026b as in http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=4947399120: Exit status -1073741205 (0xffffffffc000026b) Unknown error number If you Google the 64-bit Hex version of the error number, the results you get are, exclusively, BOINC task pages or BOINC message board discussions, like http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=79695. But Windows error numbers are conventionally represented as 32-bit positive Hex numbers, which leads us to a very simple understanding. 0xC000026BSTATUS_DLL_INIT_FAILED_LOGOFF{DLL Initialization Failed} The application failed to initialize because the window station is shutting down. Unless other operating systems require 64-bit error numbers (or Microsoft has indicated an intention to switch to 64-bit numbers in the future), could we use a 32-bit reporting format, please? _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
