W04) Error in directory scan using Borland SDK?
[corrected in r4.0]
Question:
Why does the following program fail with a memory exception on my windows
95/NT machine? I am using v5.1(6) of the compiler and SDK=bor.
ORIGIN '~beta/basiclib/v1.4/directory';
--PROGRAM:descriptor--
(# d: @directory;
do '.' -> d.name;
d.scanEntries
(#
do select
(# whenDir::<
(# do (theDir).entry.path.name -> screen.putline #);
#);
#);
#)
Answer:
This is due to an error in the directory library. The problem is, that the
file %betalib%\sysutils\v1.4\private\nti\bor\directory_ntbody.obj in the
release 3.1 distribution of the Mjolner System has been compiled with an
older version of the compiler. The solution is to delete the obj-file and
recompile %betalib%\sysutils\v1.4\private\directory_ntbody.bet.
