C7.2 template registration
Hi Friedrich,
I know this isn't your issue, but with 7.2 I'm seeing a very long delay when
the template is being registered - on my virtual machine it's over a minute
with no visual activity - lot of hd activity though. If I remember
correctly this was claimed to be the startup time for .net to get the
ClarionCL.exe running, but it seems a VERY long time!
Best regards,

I remember a discussion back in December 2008 / January 2009. I think it is
somewhat machine dependent and the "protection software" product used can
make a (huge) difference. And yes, the startup time for .NET can also cause
a delay.
But as a side note, I did not notice any negative template registration
performance issue with the new Clarion 7.2.

Hmm... It could be some protection stuff as I did an update on the virtual
machine before I started testing with 7.2... Thanks for the pointer:)

Re: C7.2 template registration
Hi Friedrich,
Just had ClarionCL.exe just go south on me. After 3 minutes it was still
hacking away at 99% CPU and slowly increasing memory (68MB at the end).
Definitely something not kosher going on in there;)

That happened to me when registering my RPM template. What registering
that template did was kill the template registry and leave it without
ANY previous templates. ClarionCL didn't return because, I guess, it
was confused!<g>

Try registering your template manually and see what happens in the
IDE. For mine, it showed up in the tree but when the tree was saved an
error popped up - which may be why ClarionCL froze - and going back
into the registry showed it was empty!

Manual registration works fine. I had registered those templates previously
without issues, but it seems that at some point ClarionCL.exe got completely
unresponsive. After tracing it via Process Monitor this happens after it
registers some fonts and exits a thread. Unfortunately PM hung up on me too
so I couldn't get the log out of it! After the Exit Thread statement it
just sat there at around 95% CPU and nothing happened at all. Left it for 5
minutes, no joy.

I don't see this with my test templates, but the templates are very simple
and I always test on a clean machine with a clean Clarion 7.2 install.
IIRC, there was a similar problem two years ago and SV fixed it. Perhaps
the issue is back? I would suggest to open up a PTSS so they can review it.

Well, I went back to a clean snapshot and it registered fine. Haven't run
into this again. I do my tests on a clean XP with just C6, C7 and some
other simple installs (editor, total commander etc.). So it is about as
clean as it can be:)
