Title: GAS 2.20, GDC and frontend calls
Post by: Juan Pedro M. on May 15, 2009, 10:40:05 pm
Hello,
I have an application that is ran through GDC using http connection to GAS. It is not using ActiveX but the GDC shortcut system to run the application via http/GAS. The application uses several frontend calls to dlls.

The application worked properly on Genero/GAS 2.02 and 2.11, but in 2.20 the programs crash on any front call.

Are there any configuration settings on GAS or Genero for this to work in Genero/GAS 2.20? Is this a bug? Are frontend calls no longer supported when running application via GAS using the http direct connection?

Thanks,
JP Martinez

Hello,

I would expect this to work in 2.20.

Could you give more info about the issue ? What do you mean by "program crashs" ?
- GDC is dying (windows core dumped equivalent ?)
- fglrun is dying ?
- application is stopped ? if yes, what is the error message ? (stack issue, dll not found...)

is there our dlls or yours ? (GDC 2.20 is now compiled with VC2008 SP1, it should have no impact with basic DLLs but this may introduce behavior change if your own DLL was tightly linked to VC2003).
Are you using an absolute or a relative path for the DLLs ? (I must admit I haven't checked recently how GDC 2.20 behaves to look for DLLs, but I expect it works like 2.11)

As this is more a support issue, you may also contact directly your support center for this kind of problem.
Best regards,
Pierre-Nicolas

Hello Juan,

In addition to the recommendations provided by Pierre-Nicolas, would there be a chance to test your application using a direct connection to DVM (so, without passing through a GAS http connection) ?
Thanks.

Best regards,
