Hi All,
I am working on a program that uses iff.library v16.1 which was
posted in .binaries.amiga. I have encountered a problem that is either with
iff.library or my hardware. The problem happens also when iff.library calls
are made from the sample program included with the .zoo file. Here is how I
can reproduce the problem:
- I ask my program to load IFF pictures from the disk
a few times (must do it more than 10 times).
- I exit my program--nothing happens yet.
- I type 'avail' at CLI prompt--I crash with Guru 00000003
which is an address error.
I have memwatch running all the time and it doesn't complain.
Metascope debugger stops 'avail' before the guru. Then I see that A0 (and D0
for that matter) contain some bogus value 0x23232323.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? If it is not a problem with
iff.library than what else is likely to cause such an error?
Thanks
