Re: The STATUSBAR control has a BUG

Post by srvet_claudio »

Hi,
The memory leak problem in hmg only occurs in unicode, and is due to the lack of explicit memory release when at c code the strings are transformed into utf8 to utf16 which is the Windows standard. This bug drags back from the hmg unicode startups and is my fault. But to fix it requires rewriting much of the c code and unfortunately I don't have time to work on hmg.

I'm sorry but I'm visiting the forum. I haven't programmed for Windows for a long time, my interest now is mobile applications...
Best regards.

Wow! Welcome Claudio!
East or West HMG is the Best.
South or North HMG is worth.
...the possibilities are endless.

Esa cuestion relacionada a HMG Unicode me desanimo un poco. Tengo algunos sistemas grandes (cerca de 400 programas y mas de 500 forms) en ANSI que por varias razones me gustaria convertir en UNICODE, mas por lo visto es mejor esperar (o desistir ??). Qual seria tu recomendacion a ese respecto ?

Hi,
I believe that in practice memory consumption is not a problem, just use a timer with a Release Memory. I never had problems with this topic, maybe other unicode users can give you a better point of view.
Best regards.
