>What precisely is the crash? Does it bring up a dialog...
No, the app dies completely and it brings out the XP dialog that wants to
report the incident to Microsoft.
>What version of the Simulator are you using?
I can reproduce that with DR11 that shipped today.
> How big is tempPrefs?
It's hardly big, see for yourself. It's allocated as a local.
typedef struct {
Boolean includeInGlobalFind;
} ApplicationPreferenceType;
static UInt32 AppMain(UInt16 cmd, MemPtr cmdPBP, UInt16 launchFlags)
{
Err error;
UInt16 prefsSize;
ApplicationPreferenceType tempPrefs;
switch (cmd) {
case sysAppLaunchCmdFind:
if (PrefGetAppPreferences(appFileCreator, appPrefID, &tempPrefs,
&prefsSize, true) != noPreferenceFound) {
if (tempPrefs.includeInGlobalFind) SearchDB
((FindParamsPtr)cmdPBP);
}
break;
Since invoking SearchDB() without checking for preferences first works, I
assumed that PrefGetAppPreferences was the culprit, as it might not have
been correct to invoke it during sysAppLaunchCmdFind. Obvioulsy you don't
seem to say so.
