SetupBuilder created installer Lockup on tash switch, Using build 7.0.2762

Using build 7.0.2762

I have created a Clarion DLL specified as Local that opens a window,
collects a string from a text control, analyzes it and used RETURN to send a
return value back to SetupBuilder.

I find that after the Clarion DLL is called if I task-switch to another
running program the running SetupBuilder created installation EXE displays a
"install.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close....." message. It
must then be closed/aboted.

If I do not task-switch to another running program the error does not occur.
I am using XP SP3.

Does anything come to mind when using a Clarion DLL with SetupBuilder that
might cause this task-switch triggered problem?

Thank you,

Mike

Mike,

I assume your DLL causes a stack corruption. IMO, something is wrong with
your DLL. I have created a demo and it works fine here on all machines
(including Windows 7 64-bit).

Does this help?

Hi Friedrich,

Thank you for taking the time to reply and for preparing the example code.

After much work it appears that having a "TIP" attribute on a BUTTON is what
causes the problem.

I verified it by adding a TIP to the button in your sample code.

Best regards,

Mike
