OFnt:END() generating logfile

[aferra]

I create the font object in this way:

DEFINE FONT cFontBot NAME "Ms Sans Serif" SIZE 0, -08 BOLD

And when I finish the dialog, after the active dialog, I destroy the source object in this way:

CFontBot: END ()

But this is creating a log with this message:

10/03/2017 11:57:02: EXCESS RELEASE OF FONT Ms Sans Serif [hFont: 0] (nCount: 61)
<-TFONT: END (284) <-TWINDOW: DESTROY (2145) <- (b) TDIALOG: TDIALOG (91) <-TDIALOG: DESTROY (0) <-TWINDOW: HANDLEEVENT (0) <-TDIALOG: HANDLEEVENT (914 ) <-DIALOGBOX (0) <-TDIALOG: ACTIVATE (296) <-CHK_MESSAGE (553)

What is the solution to not creating this log?

thanks in advance

Aferra,

Don't do things like oDlg:oFont := oFontBot AND
Remove, CFontBot: END(). I believe it's not necessary anymore.

[nageswaragunupudi]

Remove, CFontBot: END(). I believe it's not necessary anymore.

This is necessary.

As Mr Vilian said, please look for code like
oObj:oFont := oFont

You should always assign a font either by using FONT clause in the command creating DIALOG/CONTROL or use oObj:SetFont( oFont )

[aferra]

Okay, I'll check and return.

I've got the same problem with this topic
The problem is occurred on oFnt:End() that assign for DIALOG only. The :End() method of other assignment has not any problem.

Code: Select all | Expand

oFnt := TFont():New( MEMVAR->aFonts[14],, -16, .F., .F., 0, 0, 400, .F., .F., .F., 222, 3, 2, 1, , 34 )

oFnt2:= TFont():New( MEMVAR->aFonts[14],, -22, .F., .F., 0, 0, 700, .F., .F., .F., 222, 3, 2, 1, , 34 )

You don't have to explicitly release a font assigned to a control using FONT clause. That control takes the ownership and therefore the responsibility to release it.

Dear EMG,

It means End dialog will be ended font also, doesn't it?

Thanks

The excess release must be happening elsewhere.
Otherwise the part of the code you published looks ok.

For testing change the size of oFnt from -16 and -17 and see

[cnavarro]

As Mr Rao says, the problem may be elsewhere in your program
As stated Enrico, control has to destroy the resources that are used for control, but also if you want to be sure to destroy the fonts, you can try

Code: Select all | Expand

   Do While oFont:nCount > 0
      oFont:End()
   Enddo

It shows the same error in the same line.

Mr Cristobal
This is not a case of under release of fonts.
This is a case where a font is released more than it is incremented.
