It does it in Desinger when I try and parse an object. The parse works when I do it through the check integrity. One user said that he was modifying objects at a high rate of speed, well, I have been doing that. Modifying, saving, testing, modifying, saving, testing, all day over and over again, ohh well, the objects work in reporter, I just don’t like the fact that Desinger crashes
I’ve never had designer crash when parsing an individual object, of course we’re still on 5.0.4.
Do you have quick parsing or thorough parsing selected in the Integrity Check Dialogue. if on quick, when you switch it to thorough, does it crash? very wierd behavior…
I’ve had Designer crash while parsing objects that were particularly complex (like lengthy Case statements). I have always wondered if it was at a certain number of characters in the Select statement, but haven’t taken the time to prove it. The interesting thing though, is that it crashes ONLY when parsing the individual object. It would pass the integrity check (thorough) just fine.
I guess the solution is like the old joke. Patient: “Doc, my neck hurts when I do this.” Doctor: “Well then don’t do that!” I’ve learned to save often, and if it crashes when parsing, then run the integrity check instead.
That’s exactly what is going on. It parses through check integrity but not individually. The thing is, I’m also using lengthy Case Statements, as well as Decodes.
