Hallo,
some 16-bit program combo ( synario and friends from the coolrunner
CPLD Design Kit) loads up a long way but then seems to hang when
calling a helper program. The call to that helper program is displayed
in some status line and the cursor displays the hour glass, without
any progress.
The helper program is called like:
Call KERNEL.166: WINEXEC(0x09071b4c "D:\\CAE\\SYNXPLA\\MAKEINI.EXE \
D:\\CAE\\SYNXPLA\\CONFIG\\generic.ini -yield",0x0007) \
ret=092f:06d4 ds=0937
...
trace:task:TASK_Create module='MAKEINI' cmdline=
'D:\CAE\SYNXPLA\CONFIG\generic.ini -yield' task=0377
...
Ret KERNEL.166: WINEXEC() retval=0x03d7 ret=092f:06d4 ds=0937
and then some toolhelp functions are called.
Winexec doesn't return in the first place pdb->task (0377) but
tdb->hInstance(03d7), as calculated in
../loader/module.c:LoadModule
hInstance = tdb && tdb->hInstance? tdb->hInstance : pdb? pdb->task : 0;
Changing this to
hInstance = pdb? pdb->task :(tdb && tdb->hInstance)?tdb->hInstance : 0;
so that there is a preference on returning the task value, makes the
program progress much further.
Does this change look right. Or should I look at something going wrong
with the toolhelp functions?
Bye
