I have no idea what you test project does, but here I use many timers
for many things - again without issues.
I have recently rewritten the TfpgTimer code used under fpGUI+Windows.
The old implementation was severely broken. So if you haven't recently
gotten a fpGUI update, I would strongly recommend you do so.
I daily do fetch updates.
I seem to remember that some time ago, TTimer in my testing project worked.
I did some more tests:
In fact the IDE does not crash. It shows a hidden Message Window:
"Project eventtestraises exception class 'RunRerror(201)'
The TTimer is just instantiated. I can reach a breakpoint at
fpguiobject.inc line 151.
Stepping over same to line 153 shows a decent value for the Timer
variable: $B761AA00.
But stepping line 153 produces the exception.Same is "Result :=
PtrInt(Timer); " This is a 32 Bit Linux aned PtrInt in fact is "LongInt".
So the Loingint will be negative and as THandle is PtrUInt which again
is DWord, a range check exception is raised.
Changing the line to " Result := THandle(Timer); " makes the Timer work.
I don't know if this is appropriate for all Archs....
