[2.18] Lockup when working with COM objects
|
This particular bug is easily avoided. The bug is caused by a pop up window whenever there is a COM error. This window becomes inaccessible if a click occurs outside of it.
Procedure
1. Launch CMud
2. Close Sessions window (ESC)
3. Enter at the command line
| Code: |
| #SHOW %cmud.Sessions |
4. Left-click in the command line.
At this point you can no longer click on the error message box. The cursor remains locked as an I bar everywhere.
5. Press ESC to attempt to recover
6. Enter at the command line
You will see that thread 1 is still going waiting for you to click on the box. Doing a minimize and restore can bring the message box back to the front and make it clickable.
7. Enter at the command line
This step may result in a more complete lockup. You can repeat from step 3 to here adjusting the number of the thread as needed to find the lockup where ESC doesn't work. |
