Hi All,
When the RunRev Team requested that more people try v2.7.1 on WinXP
last week, I decided to give it a go.
Here's what I reported back to them:
My first experience -- Motion M1300 running XP TPC Edition 2005 --
went beautifully until I built my first standalone.
At that point I thought RR had hung the system because I saw _nothing_
change on the screen for several minutes and when I tried to close the
Revolution window XP told me it was not responding; so I shut the
computer down.
It turns out I was just impatient (and perhaps gun-shy from others'
reports): I was building standalones for both MacOSX and Windows from
my 90M Photo Portfolio stack, and I now know the process takes in
excess of four minutes... during which the IDE does nothing -- not even
a cursor change -- to provide any progress feedback.
So I've added an enhancement request to Bugzilla asking for progress
reporting during standalone builds. If you wish to support my request,
vote for bugzilla #3369
<http://support.runrev.com/bugdatabase/show_bug.cgi?id=3369>
The good news is this is the _only_ issue I have encountered so far in
v2.7.1 on XP. All the stacks I tried so far open, could me modified,
and run with no problem. Ditto for the standalones... once I gave the
IDE time to build them. :{`)
