[Oorexx-devel] Ad unloader

2009-05-27 Thread Rony G. Flatscher
Under what conditions would a defined unloader function be run by the
runtime? What could be reasons that it does not get invoked?

Reason: when running a test-program via rexx.exe, the unloader runs at
the end of the program. When running via Java, the unloader does not run
(I seem to remember that a couple of weeks ago it did run nevertheless),
even though all Rexx interpreter instances should be terminated at that
point.

The unloader gets called when all interpreter instances have been
terminated and the global Rexx environment is going to be shut down.
Any active instance, regardless of how it is created, is enough to
keep these active.  If the process terminates while there are still
active instances, then these are not going to get called.

O.K., I just *tried* to upload a zip-archive that exhibits the problem.

Unfortunately, I got thrown out twice:

* the first time, because the upload file limit must not exceed 256KB
* then, after having created chunks of 256KB and a script to
  recreate the original file I was moved to an error page, because I
  forgot to log-in. This caused the loss of my description, such
  that I just will briefly wirte up another one.

Can't Sourceforge be configured to check the login-state *before* one
opens an artefact item to help loosing entered data? (I really wonder,
whether people who experienced that usability problem with Sourceforge
whether they gave in in reporting problems.)

In this particular case the file-size is large, because I would like to
supply the compiled versions and all files created in the compilation
step to ease debugging for you, because then the example can be run
right out of the box. This size-limit (seems to be new, maybe
introduced the last time Sourceforge changed their appearance?) for
these kinds of archives is definitely too small.

O.K. added a readme.txt to the archive that briefly describes the
problem and how to run the showcase.

Will take a while before all chunks are uploaded.
