The following code produces a system crash on exit:

Code: Select all

@BRUSH 1, "Background"

TestOne=CreateTexturedBGPic(Nil, 1, 800, 600)
TestTwo=CopyBGPic(TestOne, Nil)

;End

Repeat
	WaitEvent
Forever

The crash happens with this code only when the program terminates---either by using End(), or Ctrl-c, or closing the window through its GUI close gadget.

This happens with OS4.1, update 2, µA1.

Hello rev

I can confirm that. rtg.library crashes even on OS4.1 without updates.

Right, it happens on every platform because CopyBGPic() doesn't work correctly on textured BGPics. It's fixed now. Thanks for the report!

Sooo many fixes from 4.7! Could you share something with us about the next release? (Other than that it will be 4.8

It's all just minor bugs that can be easily circumvented. No need for a fix

Who needs fixes? I love surprises, and killer features

I know this is the easier side with wishes and complaints, your side is full of hard work and sweat. I wish you keep hang in there.

So, when will we get 4.8?
