Rob, is it possible to provide us a way to kill off the virtual machines the interpreter leave behind when we have a bad shutdown of a running Eu program? A normal run means EXW.EXE, WINOA386.MOD, and a VM are running, and the VM keeps running after a runtime error makes the interpreter shut down. I am not sure, but i think it's the accumulation of these is giving my computer a headache, necesitating a reboot to clear them out. Also, re the VM, What's it doing? Just handling the dos window and puts()? Kat

I never see that on my Windows ME machine. I assume you are running exw. Are you using system()? What operating system are you running, and what kind of program are you running when this happens? > Also, re the VM, What's it doing? > Just handling the dos window and puts()? I recall when I used to use NT 3.51, it seemed to have some kind of special process that started up to handle DOS programs, and occasionally the process would still be hanging around after a crash.

The program is file disk manipulation heavy, lots of where(), seek(), *lots* of flush(), puts(file,), gets(file,). include file.e -- seek(), where() include String0_9_1.e -- for replace() include strtok.e -- for parse(), repltok(), deparse() include get.e -- for value() It's a big file, 12megs, i have not tried to load it into memory with Eu. > > Also, re the VM, What's it doing? > > Just handling the dos window and puts()? > > I recall when I used to use NT 3.51, it seemed > to have some kind of special process that started > up to handle DOS programs, and occasionally > the process would still be hanging around after a crash. Ok, how to shut it down? Kat > Regards, > Rob Craig > Rapid Deployment Software > http://www.RapidEuphoria.com > > > >
