Reply To: Xmetal Author Exit Error

Hi,

I have the same issue since yesterday. I don't know exactly when that happened.

I tried reinstalling products ( XMetal Dev Edition 5.0 SP1), but that didn't change anything.

I know that my customization is correct, as it worked yesterday morning. (customization written by a co-worker a few months ago, that hasn't been changed)

I looked the tbr file, in the Application Data directory, that corresponds to my customization.
I saw something strange :(here is the case for a DTD, nammed myDTD.dtd)

So I looked in the Temp folder and found a folder called  myDTDa02680, which contains :

ElementApplic.xft
ElementReqPers.xft
ElementTable.xft
ElementXref.xft
ElementXRefExt.xft
meta-inf.xml
myDTD.css
myDTD.ctm
myDTD.mcr
myDTD.rlx
myDTD.tbr
myDTD_structure.css

Here are the file my customization folder :

ElementApplic.xft
ElementReqPers.xft
ElementTable.xft
ElementXref.xft
ElementXRefExt.xft
myDTD.css
myDTD.ctm
myDTD.dtd
myDTD.mcr
myDTD.rlx
myDTD.tbr
myDTD.xac
myDTD_structure.css

Concerning tbr files, here are the Dtd_Id nodes for each :
– for the tbr file in the Temp folder :

– for the tbr file in my customization folder :

I made a test :
– I erase the tbr file in the app data folder
– I erase everything in the temp folder
– I open a file in XMetal, that corresponds to my custo type
– When the file is opened, everything is fine (I have my custom toolbar and macros)
– I close XMetal
– The “0x00000004” error occurs
– The tbr file in the app data folder is not created yet
– the folder in the temps folder, is not created yet
– I clock the “ok” button of the error message
– then tbr file and the temps folder are created

Each time I open a file, a new folder is created into the Temp folder and the tbr in the app data folder is updated (points the new temps folder).

I don't understand where that can come from.
Any idea ?

Thank you in advance,

Wilhelm
