ABC: Illegal Instruction problem and a fix (C5)
1999-02-16 -- George Lehmann
 
Newsgroups: topspeed.products.c5ee.bugs A couple of weeks ago I stumbled into a problem wherein I was getting an Illegal Instruction on a reproducible basis. Herewith is the scenario and the cure: In a multi-dll app, the main EXE calls a procedure in one DLL, which in turn calls another procedure in a second DLL which then tries to open a window which calls IniMgr.Fetch, at which time an Illegal Instruction occurs and the application terminates. The defining characteristic is that the second DLL is NOT declared as a DLL to the main EXE. Once the second DLL is declared in the main EXE, the problem vanishes. Hope this helps someone, George Lehmann
