I see that calling `(collect-garbage 'major)` returns a number when it should return `(void)`. Repair pushed, but I don't that we'll get this repair into the release. For v7.4, Racket CS will be advertised as "beta". It's close enough to be worth trying (to expose bugs like this one), but there are likely to be too many problems to switch to it for production use for most Racket projects. > Also, in one of the test runs, I got a warning printed out on the console: > > (racket.exe:6532): Pango-WARNING **: 20:39:36.824: couldn't load font > "Helvetica Bold Not-Rotated 14px", falling back to "Sans Bold Not-Rotated > 14px", expect ugly output. > > I only got this warning once and could not reproduce it anymore.

The problem here is that Pango warnings (or warnings from glib-based libraries i ngeneral) are not being redirected to logging. I forgot to fill in that piece for Racket CS, and I'll put it back on my list. > Should I create issues for these in the Racket, or some other repository? Racket issues are fine, although the latter is probably more specifically a `racket/draw` issue. Thanks for your consistent help!

Re: [racket-users] Re: Racket v7.3.0.900 is available for testing
I installed the latest version, and Racket and raco run fine, but I am sorry to report some more problems with it: When I runActivityLog2 there is some code which prints out a number to the console when the application starts up -- this does not happen if I build the application with Racket 7.3, so it is not a spurious printf in my code. It is just a number: if I run it using racket.exe, it is always 98908, if I build an executable, the value printed out is always 98914, and a new console window is opened, which is very annoying for a GUI application. I tried creating a simple GUI application, with just a frame, but nothing was printed out when I ran that one, so I am not sure how to investigate it further. Also, in one of the test runs, I got a warning printed out on the console: (racket.exe:6532): Pango-WARNING **: 20:39:36.824: couldn't load font "Helvetica Bold Not-Rotated 14px", falling back to "Sans Bold Not-Rotated 14px", expect ugly output. I only got this warning once and could not reproduce it anymore. As with the number, I never saw this warning (or any unexpected text) printed out on the console with previous Racket versions. Should I create issues for these in the Racket, or some other repository? Alex.

Re: [racket-users] Re: Racket v7.3.0.900 is available for testing
The latest release candidate at pre-release.racket-lang.org fixes this problem. Thanks again!

Re: [racket-users] Re: Racket v7.3.0.900 is available for testing
I can install the windows version of Racket CS and DrRacket (and my program) runs fine, however when I try to run "raco" I get a message windows with the "Can't find C:\Program FIles\Racket\.\racket.exe": I have no extra packages installed or migrated to this installation.

Snapshot installers suggest a version number for the installation directory, but my memory of release candidates is that they don't include a version in the default path for Windows, because they're meant to act like a release. It's possible that I misremember they way that we've configured things in the past, though. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
