I have a couple of applications with a timer loop that is prone to
occasionally freezing after a few hours, not doing anything radical, for
example displaying a date and time.
procedure TfrmJBCLMenu1.Timer1Timer(Sender: TObject);
begin
lblToday.caption:=formatDateTime('dd mmm yy - hh:nn:ss',now);
end;
I noticed when the timer has stopped running that the rest of the
application runs ok, but seems also a bit sluggish, that is buttons respond
but slowly.
I put a bit of wake up code run when certain buttons are pressed like
//clock sometimes freezes...
procedure TfrmJBCLMenu1.WakeClock;
begin
timer1.Enabled:=false;
sleep(500);
timer1.Enabled:=true;
end;
But I am thinking this shouldn't be needed!, and I am not sure it always
fixes it anyway.
Any suggestions to stop timers freezing? Any known problems?
John
