Al, I read it thoroughly. Remy Maucharat didn't mention the platform he had tested on until the 7th post and by then Yoav Shapira had already stated that he tested it as well (with no mention of the platform). They also agreed that the case would be re-opened if you could help them to reproduce the problem.
My criticism is that you mentioned a developer from the users list who also claimed to have problems shutting down Tocmat which would seem to bolster your case -- except that he never mentioned whether or not he was starting his own threads in his application. You did not, however, mention that I tested on the exact same distribution that you're having problems on with a fresh download of TC and it ran fine. If you're serious about getting to the root of the problem, which I think you are, it's important that all facts are on the table -- even the ones that don't support your argument. -Ben On Thu, 2005-02-03 at 01:43, Al Sutton wrote: > Ben, > > Please re-read my email.
