While testing Windows printing crashing, I just discovered another Windows
bug that has been masking much of my testing. Can anyone confirm this
crashes on Windows:
1. Drag a statictext and pushbutton to the window of a new project.
2. Put the following in the pushbutton .action event:
dim x as double
dim running as boolean
running = true
while running
x = x + 1
StaticText1.text = str(x)
StaticText1.Refresh
if UserCancelled then exit
wend
3. Run the project and push the button
(On a Mac compile and move to Windows, or remote debug to Windows).
On my XP Pro PC, it hangs the application with 100% processor usage at or
around 20,000. Remote debugging to Windows runs until about 80,0000. The
same project runs fine on a Mac.
Interestingly, when run fronm the Windows IDE, it often also crashes the RB
IDE which then itself hangs with a nilobjectexception on relaunch.
