I am write a chunk of code that simple draws the Menu Bar for my program,
but when I run it from within Think Pascal 3.02 I get a bus error at the
designated line:
procedure Menus;
begin {Menus}
ClearMenuBar; {Clear old Menu Bar}
vBPMBAR := GetNewMBar(BPMBAR); {Get the MBAR for BP}
SetMenuBar(vBPMBAR); {Set BP's MBAR as current Menu Bar}
DisposHandle(vBPMBAR); {Release handle from Memory}
vAppleMenu := GetMHandle(AppleMenu); {Get the handle for the Apple Menu}
AddResMenu(vAppleMenu, 'DRVR'); {Add the Desk Accessories}
DrawMenuBar; {Draw the Menu Bar now}-----------Bus Error right
here!
end; {Menus}
I have an SE/30 with 8 megs of Ram running 7.0b4.
Please help me out. Thanks

Outbursts of emotion are neccessary. Newsgroups: comp.sys.mac.programmer Subject: HyperCard Help! Summary: Flashing Hilite in a scolling field Expires: References: <6050@ns-mx.uiowa.edu> Sender: Followup-To: Distribution: Organization: The Ohio State University, Department of Computer and Information Science Keywords: I'm having trouble with a scolling field in HyperCard. When a selection is hilited, then chosen, an event occurs (i.e. showing a card field). When the event occurs the selection gets "deselected" and is no longer hilited. This makes for a very ugly implementation. I have tried using SelectLineXCMD but to no avail. Does anybody have a possible workaround for this problem. I posted in the HyperCard section but the newsgroup is no longer available. Thanks, Ron

Well, this is starting to get serious. I upgraded the compiler to 3.0.2 and tried to compile my project. It crashes at the same place as 3.0.1 crashes. Rather annoying! What happens is this: I call SFGetFile with OK parameters. The compiler complains. When I start to remove debug support it ends up in uRuntime.lib with "Illegal Instruction"! Have anybody encountered this problem? I'm running in a vanilla (almost) SE with 2 diskdrives and 2.5 Mb memory. /Andreas -- | Andreas Magnusson || Vet ni varf|r datavetare {r s} | | Linkoping Institute of Technology || smarta?

Well, I hate to ask the obvious, but I have had experiences in the past where the managers were not initialized and sometimes GetFile/PutFile worked and sometimes it crashed spectacularly. So, have you invoked the magic incantation that initializes the various managers? (ie. InitGraf,InitFonts etc.) Jim.
