I've been having some trouble with my stack recently. I play a sound
(11 Khz, about 5 secs.) and then call a XFCN repeatedly (about 30 times).
Then the script finishes. If I try to start the script again, it just
never plays the sound. The script is supposed to wait until the sound
is 'done' before it goes on, but the sound is never 'done.' Once while
doing this I got a System Error ID=25; Out of Memory!
The XFCN does nothing 'weird.' All it does is some calculations.
No handles are allocated, no ROM calls are made (except those made by
the glue routines).
The only thing I can think of is that the XFCN's were originally compiled
with LSP 1.11 and now use LSP 2.0. AH HA!, you say, THERE'S THE CULPRIT!
However I have faith in LSP and don't think that's the problem, as I don't
remember ever TRYING to run the script twice in a row.
Before the script is called, the heapspace returns 205320. After the script
has been called, the heapspace returns 165094. What happened??????
I am running System 6.02 and UniFinder 6.1 under 1 meg. My system heap
takes up around 250K.
Does anyone know what's going on?
