Hi netters,
I've just typed in the 'NewHiyer' program from Scot Knasters excellent
'Programming secrets on the Macintosh' (or something like that).
It's a neat demo program that uses Heirarchical menus and styled text.
The blurb says that it only runs on Mac ]['s (needs 256k roms), but I typed
it in on my humble Mac+ under LSP 2.03.
Running the program under LSP - fine, menus up, windows open, text styled.
Sending it out as an application - BOOM, system error 11, EVEN WITH
MACSBUG INSTALLED. This is the Macsbug that comes with LSP, version 5.4
I think.
Here's the weird bit though, if I use Macsbug 6.1.b1 (b -> British??)
I never get the system error dialog and the program runs beautifully.
I've tried this with all INIT's turned off, and just the respective
Macsbugs loaded, same thing:
Macsbug 5.4 - System error 11
MAcsbug 6.1.b1 - fine.
LSP 2.03 - fine.
Question: Is there some manager that Macsbug 6.1.b1 and LSP 2.03 initialise
that isn't being initialised with Macsbug 5.4??
This has taken up a lot of debug time already, with no real progress.
Any ideas???
