I've just filed a report

<http://www.realsoftware.com/feedback/viewreport.php?reportid=zbmmbaqc>

that is likely to be related with the current thread.

Following what is suggested in the language reference for RB3Dspace, to check if Quesa is present on the system I've put this in the Open event of a RB3Dspace:

  If Me.objects = Nil then
    MsgBox "You need to install QuickDraw 3D or Quesa!"
    Return
  End if

I've set UB in the build settings and run in the debugger, after removing Quesa from the system, and I got a failed assertion (10.4.8, 2007r1) instead of the msgBox. Project and screenshot with the failed assertion message attached to the report.

And going back to my post in this thread where I've stated this,


But the RB3D based program I'm working on now runs under Windows (without any Quesa declare), so the statement "RB3D just plain doesn't work on Windows" is not true here, as well as the sentence "Install Quesa an run any RB3D project - you get a blank display (at least I do)" that I see in the feedback report.

I have to add that I'm unable to track a crash that later occurs in my own app (only in Win32, not in Mac OS X): after closing all windows I get a crash if I open a new one, with no way of falling back to the remote debugger. Possibly a side effect of something dirty related to your findings...


I've just found a report that explains the crash I see in my project when run under Win32:

It's already verified by RS. I just added myself but others may want to sign in, hoping that 2007r2 will take care of it...

Ciao

Franco
