PureBASIC 4.20 DLL Vs VISTA crashs ..

freddix · Post by **freddix** » Tue Jun 17, 2008 10:11 pm

Hi all,

I have a .DLL I develop that work perfectly under Windows XP
Then problem is that under Windows VISTA it crash.
The only solution to fix the crash is to run it in Windows 98 compatibility mode under Windows VISTA.

Does someone have any clue from where it can came ?

Thank you.

Regards,
Fred

@ts-soft:
it's a simple calculation DLL there are no API calls, no DirectX calls ...
The most strange is that it's a group of DLL I've created and only 1 of them does not work ...

@freak:
It's a group of 21 DLLs I've created for various wrapping/calculations.
20 of them work perfectly on Windows XP and Windows VISTA
1 of them crash (at setup apparently) on Windows VISTA. If I use Compatibility mode set to Windows XP, it crash too, if I use compatibility mode set to windows 98, it work ...
Personnaly I think it's a bug ... as each 21 DLL use the same setup scheme ... and 20 of them works perfectly on each OS ...

1.PureBASIC 4.20 version
2.No TPC lib used.
3.Yes, it work on Windows XP and on Windows VISTA compatibility to 98.
4.I Agree that I miss this is a MOD want to move this thread to the QUESTION SECTION, do this.
5.It's ok with this. not a problem of that kind.
6.All users that use my DLLs report the same issue with the same DLL file.
7.I will try to make changes in the DLL setup to check if the problem is here ...
8.I can't distribute the code cos it's a commercial product.
9.PureBasic 4.x
10.Dual Boot WINDOWS XP PRO + Windows VISTA ULTIMATE
11. already done.
12.ok

I am currently developing a rather sizeable dll which is very complex indeed. It runs fine under Vista / XP / ...

As has already been said, we need to see some code.

If its a commercial product and your sure you've run up against a bug you can always discreetly send code directly to Fred for review. I know he has said this before in the past.

He has never breathed a word of my code!

But lets face it he was probably giggling his head off at it!
