If you call fibonacci(3), it will call fibonacci(2) which will call fibonacci(1) and fibonacci(0). fibonacci(3) will then call fibonacci(1)... which has already been calculated before! A much faster way to calculate the number would be to begin with 0 and 1 and just fill an array with the successors until the n-th number is reached. That’s comparing a wasteful method implemented recursively...

Hi again; I think that I am querying it with: Code: yesno = winHID.install I make this call after a connect and as soon as I make the call I get a dialogue box popping up saying that the MBS plugin has crashed, do I want to report it etc etc it is stored with this: Code: pidOld = SetWindowLong(winHandle, - 4 , AddressOf Events) Thanks

As a test, I took a recursive procedure that got a stack overflow at a depth of 2500 calls, moved it to a thread, gave it a stack size of 200MB and achieved a depth of over 2 million calls. (It would have gone deeper, but I gated it at that depth so I wouldn't have to wait for RB to build a stack table for the exception.)

Well, I don't know exactly what is going wrong. Are this methods in a module? In a Window they won't work because of the self parameter. Why not simply have the plugin look for devices with enumerating them from time to time and working with them until you have an error on sending/reading so you know it has been disconnected? PS: I have signatures and avatars off. Makes reading the forums much easier. Greetings Christian

Error handling. Code: IF the list exists IF the value exists IF it makes sense act on the information If you find any corruption, offer a 'delete plist' option to at least reset things back to factory defaults.

found a solution i can live with: Code: if TargetWin32 then sh.Execute "chdir /d " +startFile.Parent.AbsolutePath+ " && " +startFile.AbsolutePath else sh.Execute "cd " +startFile.Parent.ShellPath+ " && " +startFile.ShellPath end still, if someone knows a more cross platform conform way would be great to know.

I would also like to know the answer to this question about validation. The RB XML parser is supposed to be wrapped version of Expat, so presumably the answers are somewhere here http://expat.sourceforge.net/ or here: http://www.xml.com/pub/a/1999/09/expat/index.html but for the life of me I can't make heads or tails of the stuff there. I wrote my own XML parser instead. But about ...

Yes.
If you set ColumnSortDirection to Don't Sort, the user can't sort the column by clicking its header. Don't Sort will block the usual calls to the SortColumn and CompareRows events.
Code:
ListBox1.ColumnSortDirection( 0 )=0 //or SortNone
Disable sort for first column.

Well, ReadMessage never worked well for me, so I prefer the event. You should not use ReadMessage, and sometimes I think I should remove it. Code: while ubound(datas) >= 0 inData = dataS.Pop. CString ( 0 ) wend This code is not good in two places. First you should remove the ".CString(0)" as it will shorten the string returned and using a loop in this case will pop all strings ...

How about: Code: Sub doSomethingToX( x as string ) Do // do some stuff to x here Loop Until isOK(x) End Sub Recursion is generally a bad idea if the maximal depth of the recursion can get very high, because it's rather slow and you can get a stack overflow. Edit: Oh, and if you want to edit x if it's not OK, you can either do it in isOK, or you make something ...

If I read what you are trying to accomplish, I'm willing to bet that classes appear in the XML in the same order in which they were added to the project, because the order of at least the Open() events for interface classes depends on the order in which they were added (and why that order would matter to compiling is left to RB's proprietary format). Perhaps exporting a class all by itself as ...

a MODAL window means that nothing else should occur in the app. until the user deals with whatever issue is being presented by the modal window. IMHO, cmd-Q should do nothing while the modal window is shown. It's closing of your window is strange behavior. Not sure what may be going on in your code.
