> We are using 17.2.4. Maybe it is something fixed in 17.2.6
Yes, after this update these behaviors started.
It's not a fixed situation, it's random. And only on Windows 7.
When I call a function in activex sometimes it takes a while to execute.
A strange detail. I'm gonna explain.
I have many functions in activex, mainly in chilkat component.
When I call tOleAuto for the first time it sometimes takes about 4 seconds where it should be less than 1 second. But this is not a fixed rule, it often doesn't happen the first time and it can happen later too. This does not cause errors.
Using webbrowser activex on windows 7 this is more visible, but does not prevent execution.
Nor is it on all computers. A client of mine was complaining that this was happening, I decided to generate with Borland just for him and for that equipment that was presenting this. After I updated this computer the behavior stopped. So I tested it again generating in MSVC after I generated the libs in the new version of visual studio and it also stopped.
Also test GetProfString on windows 7 with MSVC. Some computers just shut down.
More like I said before: It's still early to conclude this behavior. It could be some procedure that I haven't identified yet.
My question would be if MSVC libs were generated in very old versions of MSVC. So, this question is ruled out.
