1. Error while using Win32Lib
I've been getting an error while using Win32Lib, starting from version .014.
It only happens about every 4th or 5th time I run 2 different programs I've
been writing. First I get an application error for EXW.EXE:
"The instruction at bff64e46 referenced memory at ffffffff
The memory could not be read from"
Then when I click to close the application, I get 2 concecutive errors which
make my hard drive sound like a machine gun and say "This program has
performed an illegal operation and will be shut down." The Details for the 2
errors are:
EXW has caused an invalid page fault in module USER32.DLL at 0137:bff64e46
EXW has caused an invalid page fault in module KERNEL32.DLL at 01237:bff858cd
Does anyone have an idea on why I'm getting these errors? I'm at a loss to
explain them.

I get this a lot when using puts or printf (like debugging information)
My fix is not to use these for debugging. Win32lib, I guess, is not handling
the console window properly (This is just a guess)

Maybe be related to the above?

It freezes my system sometimes without win32lib even loaded running under
exw. However I was assuming this was more or less a configuration/win98
fault. Anyways, I dont think this so-called 'console'-output should use a
dos-screen, why even bother all the risk to problems not to mention
performance. Lets open a *real* log screen!

I get a similar message box whenever I launch exw.exe with/without
win32lib or any exw program for that matter:
Application Error: C:\EUPHORIA\BIN\EXW.EXE
The instruction at 00000009 referenced memory at 70046517
The memory could not be written

Similarly, I get two consecutive errors (but my hard drive is silent)

I don't know what causes them either. I only know they started after my
2nd clean install of windows 98 4.10.1998 on an AMD-K6 3D processor with
128.0MB RAM. I'm hoping it will work if I reinstall win98 again, or when
RDS releases version 2.1.

Are you using v 0.15a? I thought these errors would be gone. There was a
bug in some allocation routines, when using lists and combo boxes. But
version 15 should be a fix to that.
David and/or Robert can explain things further.
