Dear Everyone,
One of my customers is reporting crashes with Windows 8 for an application built with DBPro. I've done some testing with them and the crash occurs on start-up including even the minimal code shown below. They are running as administrator and with windows 7, Vista etc compatibility set.
sys_init_graphics_mode()
set cursor 50, 50
print "It is working"
sync
wait key
end
Function SYS_init_graphics_mode()
maxwidth=0
maxdepth=0
selheight=0
//get max color depth
perform checklist for display modes
for c=1 to checklist quantity()
depth1=checklist value c(c)
width=checklist value a(c)
height=checklist value b(c)
ok=check display mode(width, height, depth1)
if ok
if depth1>maxdepth then maxdepth=depth1
if depth1=maxdepth
if width>maxwidth then maxwidth=width
if width=maxwidth and maxwidth<>0 then selheight=height
endif
endif
next c
set display mode maxwidth, selheight, depth1
maximize window
sync on Rem sets to code screen refresh
autocam off
endfunction
Has anyone managed to get DBPro working in Windows 8? Are there any known issues and suggested solutions?
Many thanks,
Matt
