I'm trying to learn how to write different types of code such as appli-
cations, INITs, and FKEYs(I'm working with Lightspeed Pascal, v 1.11).
the few applications I have written for personal use have worked OK. Now I'm
giving a shot at INITs.
The INIT I'm working on now just draws to the desktop at startup. It
calls GetWMgrPort then a setPort, draws the picture using basic QD procedures
(lines, FrameOval, text), and then waits for the mouse button to be pressed
so it can exit.
But in reality, my Mac (Mac +, 1 meg, sys 3.2, find 5.3, no other inits)
starts up, displays "Welcome...", then crashes with error ID = 02. My LSP
Manual Supplement says the ID of 2 might be caused by uninitialized managers.
I did not shut off auto-initialization with {$I-}, and so LSP is supposed to
take care of the proper initializations. My init is a unit called main con-
taining the primary procedure main, and two other procedures local to proce-
dure main (got it?).
This init project was compiled with no libraries in the project(this
version bombed), and then compiled with a shortened version of MacPasLib
(this version also bombed).
Given the information here, does anyone know of a possible reason why
this bombs? Any hints, tips or comments are appreciated!
