Hello, you guys! I made a screencast of UI corruption that I regularly see after a long work session in Factor Listener, see video description: https://youtu.be/uqdERZRTJ4Y
Have you experienced anything similar, or is it just me? The Factor version, as you can see in the video, is a fairly recent development build. I've been seeing this kind of issues on at least three different PCs (Windows XP 32-bit and Windows 8.1 64-bit). Both in the most recent stable build of Factor, and in several recent development builds. The issue seems to be a kind of memory corruption. It usually happens after I have the Listener open for a long time (days) or after a short time of memory-intensive work. There is no reliable way to reproduce the issue, and the corruption is random in the specific gadgets it affects. The toolbar is affected most often, but other contents of the Listener can have switched texts. You work for some time, and suddenly screen gadgets display the wrong text or character. Usually you can see where that text comes from, i.e. it's not completely random, but rather existing text pieces get mixed around and randomly redistributed between gadgets. If a gadget reacts to mouse interactions, you can usually see the previous, "normal" text, like in the video. Having said all that, I suspect GC to be the source of problems. Did any of you experience similar issues on other platforms besides Windows? How do I go about hunting for that kind of bug in Factor? ---=====--- Александр ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Find and fix application performance issues faster with Applications Manager Applications Manager provides deep performance insights into multiple tiers of your business applications.
