I had a HookWindowEvents screen that it seemed was having problems
because another window event sometimes happened before the script was
done executing. I didn't think it was too long, but sometimes window
events happen quickly. My symptom was the "There was an error while
the previous error was still being displayed. Abort and start config"
dialog box, only I never saw the original error dialog box.
Apparently I have fixed it (still testing) by creating a global
variable at PP start up (G_InHookWindowEvents) and then the first few
lines of HookWindowEvents look like this:
;check to see if parallel execution
if (G_InHookWindowEvents == "YES") do
Quit
endif
;prevent parallel execution
G_InHookWindowEvents = "YES"
Then, I put the code I really want to run, and then after that the end
of HookWindowEvents looks like this:
;allow normal execution
G_InHookWindowEvents = "no"
Quit
Has anyone else noticed something similar?
