Hello Andy ! First bug report ! (fast, heh ?)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Well, I tested the beta version of your extension, and I even didn't
|
||
|
|
manage to run Intuiviewer !!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When I run it, the window appears normaly. Then I select the LOAD option :
|
||
|
|
the file requester appears and I choose an HAM6 640x512 pixels picture.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I wait, but nothing happens. Then I switch back to AMOS, and I see that
|
||
|
|
an "OUT OF MEMORY" error occured on the IREQUEST FILE$("Select an IFF ILBM
|
||
|
|
picture") command.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Hum, well, rather strange. I try to avoid this problem by putting a
|
||
|
|
remark at the beginning of this line. Then I insert the line :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
F$ = "DH2:test.iff"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I re-run the program, and select the LOAD option. The program loads the
|
||
|
|
picture... and crashes totally my system !!!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I tried several times, even by booting with no startup-sequence, but
|
||
|
|
that's always the same result... The intuiviewer worked fine with the
|
||
|
|
demo version, though...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
So I started from scratch, opened a 4 colors hires screen and called
|
||
|
|
a file requester : same problem (out of memory). I've got the latest
|
||
|
|
version of the reqtools library, so I think it is not the source of the
|
||
|
|
problem...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now, something different :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First, about the demos I'll code : I think that the user would be
|
||
|
|
interested in small and simple demos. Indeed, if someone wants to know
|
||
|
|
how to use gadgets or requesters, he won't feel like reading a 1000 lines
|
||
|
|
program just to find the topic he's interested in... So I suggest small
|
||
|
|
programs, each devoted to a specific feature of your extension
|
||
|
|
(requesters, gadgets, sliders, and so on). Do you agree with me ?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now, to develop Collector (sorry I forgot it at home ! I'll send
|
||
|
|
you as soon as possible), I'll need a special feature that is not yet
|
||
|
|
available in your extension : the possibility to unpack packed pictures
|
||
|
|
into an intuition screen. So, could you implement it ? Only unpacking is
|
||
|
|
needed, and no change must be made to the code by Francois Lionet (only
|
||
|
|
redirection to an intuition screen). I need to unpack 4 bitplanes pics at
|
||
|
|
any coordinates on the screen (16 pixels boundaries for X coordinates are
|
||
|
|
okay for me). Hope this will be done soon ;-)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Okay, that's all for today ! See you !
